Lynch slams music, film industries

David Lynch has suggested that the digital revolution will bring more freedom to the film and music industries.

The iconic director was speaking to The Guardian about his involvement in the controversial Dark Night Of The Soul project with Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse.

Lynch said: "Sometimes the house burns down and you build a new one. Because the world is so, so, completely backwards and absurd, people think it's strange or an exception to have freedom to create something.

"It's ridiculous. The exception should be that sometimes people do not have freedom. What went wrong?"

Danger Mouse said of the project: "The whole idea was to bring little bit more imagination back into music. I've missed a lot of that and when I was younger it seemed easier to do than it is now."
