Music Week Goes Deep on the Songwriting Process
Music Week just published an exclusive interview with Magnus and we think this one is worth your time.
They asked the questions we don't always get asked — how the songs actually start, where the inspiration comes from, how we know when something is finished. Magnus got into the role dreams play in the writing process (more than you might expect), and the philosophy behind leaving four songs off Black Petals Fallen to save them for later.
On knowing when a song is done: "Art is never finished, it's just abandoned."
He also talked about how 'Till The Break of Day went from a bare-bones solo demo to the emotional anchor of the album once Ruby and Josh got their hands on it.
