Description: Moby believes the mundane aspects of ritualized work increase the chance that something great might happen.

Transcript:

The biggest thrill of what I do is not knowing where inspiration comes from. And that’s one of the reasons why I’m so prolific, is because I feel like as long as I keep working, it increases the chances that inspiration might happen. So I write a lot of music, and a lot of it’s pretty mundane. And a lot of it’s not very good. But every now and then, something that I think is really spectacular will happen. And if I’m not in my studio working on music, there is no way that I’ll be able to capture that. But as long as I just stay in my studio and keep working and working and sort of like slogging through, you know, the mundane aspects of just day-to-day, ritualized working, that just increases the chances that something great might happen.
