@JoshGrillsItAll: How many variations of “A Knife and A Fork” are there- including those from ThinkTank?
Paul Robb: There are at least two major variations, the one that exists on “Hack” and the one embodied on “Mandroid”. There are of course numerous remixes of each, including one by the Propellorheads that was released only in the UK.
@virtadpt: If you wanted to start making synthpop music, in what aspect of music would you recommend starting?
Paul Robb: Songwriting. Always songwriting. 700 years ago, my career actually started when I sold my band’s live mixer and bought a multi-track cassette deck, thus focusing my energies on writing rather than performing. A good song can exist nicely in any number of genres, a bad song doesn’t really work in any genre.
@DarylNorthrop: Love your work! Synthesizer is a great album. Any touring soon?
Paul Robb: Sadly, not at the moment. All three members are embroiled in other projects and daily life, and it’s difficult to find the time.
@manfariel: I’d ask if it is true that inSoc comes (to Brazil) from July 15-30? It is me, Paul, Viviane (Brazil, São Paulo)
Paul Robb: It is not true, unfortunately. Kurt has just started at a new company and can not really get away until the new game is out in the fall.
@chrisakavern: How come “Fire Tonight” is not in the live set?
Paul Robb: It’s a little bit of a downer for the live set, isn’t it? Wouldn’t you people rather see us jumping around shrieking like monkeys?

Granted, no one wants to pass on screaming, dancing monkeys, but a nice cool down period would be nice as well how about a 3 song set of “Repetition”, “Fire Tonighr” & “Runaway” that would be great!
