What plans you have for the future? What musical styles? You have thought some tour by Spain? It would enchant to see to me in direct "Amarok"... think that it will be possible? Thanks to tod@s
I want to learn to make acrobatic flights with my helicopter of radio control. With regard to the styles, which I want to do is music in relaidas vitual and it can see it in the official Web (
www.mikeoldfield.com). I do not believe that it does tour in Spain at the moment. I believe that he is very compplicado to do a direct one of "Amarouk" because he would be difícl to find so many guitarists because it would need long time and effort.

I am a young person of 18 years and I would like to ask to him: in his constant evolution like artist and person, it does not fear to evolve erroneously? Perhaps then their previous discs were better than the contemporaries.
No, I am not scared to mistake to me. It is a question of opinions, there is people who think the opposite and we cannot be all always in agreement.
3 22-05-2003 (16.34 h.)
Think that algun day will be able to come to the light a "Ommadawn 2"?
No, but it can that does remix in 5.1.
4 22-05-2003 (16.34 h.)
You do not think that after discs as "The Millenium Tubular Bell" or "bells 3" you have moved away a little your style?
No, always it surprises the diversity to me of opinions in the diverse pages Web.
5 22-05-2003 (16.35 h.)
Will be this one the last disc of Mike Oldfield? I hope that no.
I also hope that she is not thus. I am taking a coffee and I hope that this one is not my last cup.
22-05-2003 (16.36 h.)
Is "Tubular bells" an insurmountable masterpiece or you think that other discs yours surpass to this one? In my Tubular opinion "bells 2" is better. "Mayan gold" moves to me.
I hope that benefits of the new recording of "TB2003".
7 22-05-2003 (16.37 h.)
You improvised in the Environmental song "guitars" of "Tubular bells" of 1973?
Yes, it was pure improvisation.
8 22-05-2003 (16.39 h.)
You do not feel little valued due to the type of music that you make?
In Spain yes that is it. In some countries it is it, although it is possibly a music for understood (a certain sector).
9 22-05-2003 (16.41 h.)
Think that bells will be the same successful this "Tubular" that the original one of 1973? I think that 16 million copies a little unattainable is something. Luck.
I do not believe that alzance that level of success, auqnue throughout the years and in the different formats possibly can approach those numbers. Thanks and luck for you also.
10 22-05-2003 (16.43 h.)
For when a new disc without so many tubular bells and more sound of Scottish gaita like in your album "Voyager"? I have all your discografía and I am already tired of so much reedicion of tubular bells. You are going to renew with Warner Spain to make but discs in next years? Sergio, Oviedo. 29 years.
I like all the types of music, I will return to make music celta, but perhaps not a complete album. In fact, there has only been a new recording of "Tubular Bells". I am enchanted to work with Warner Spain and its so close people.
11 22-05-2003 (16.44 h.)
!Hola, Mike! Which is the instrument without which you could not live?
The guitar.
12 22-05-2003 (16.45 h.)
Mike, you have some idea of the million discs that you have sold? You have page Web?
The Web he is
www.mikeoldfield.com. I believe that I can have sold about 25 million discs.
13 22-05-2003 (16.46 h.)
I believe that your music wakes up the sensitivity that all we took inside. Thanks. Who or what influences you to make your music?
It is agran mystery for my. Sometimes it arises from my interior, my emotions, the heart and, like digoa sometimes, from an not identified mysterious place.
14 22-05-2003 (16.47 h.)
Of what disc you are prouder?
Always the last one. For that reason now it is "Tubular Bells 2003".
15 22-05-2003 (16.48 h.)
What has been in your life what the Maxima has produced you satisfación?
Purede that to cook my supper of Sundays: roasted with potatoes to the furnace.
The discs that value your followers more are those that contain a complex touched instrumental work with traditional instruments like "Ommadawn" or "Hergest Ridge". You think to return to make a disc of this style or on the contrary to follow with the simplicity and the computers?
In a press conference today I requested alos concurrent if it had to compose short pieces or long instrumental works. By majority they showed preference for instrumental works. Now, I would like hecrlo with a mixture of traditional instruments and computers.
17 22-05-2003 (16.52 h.)
In this regrabación of "Tubular bells", excepting the keyboards and sintetizadores, all the other instruments are real or some has been made by means of software? You have incorporated music of camera to the disc?
No, they are all traditional instruments. Returning to again touch them and with something of sintetizador. No, I have not incorporated camera music.
18 22-05-2003 (16.55 h.)
I admit that the music that I like more is the one of Mike Oldfield, Art Of The Noise and Jean-Michel Jarre, but have a doubt, how beams to select the feminine voices that throughout the years have been complementing your discs? Ommadawn.
Sometimes I like to have feminine voices in some of my subjects. For example, in 1978 I included the voice of Maggie Riley in one of my subjects. I decided that it wanted that she sang in "Moonlight shadow".
19 22-05-2003 (16.57 h.)
Hello, I have the disc of "Three moons" and the trilogy of the "Tubulars" and enchants your music to me. You have something thought for when you make the videos of this last work in Spain? you will do them like vídeojuego of "Three moons" (that, by the way, is very well obtained)? Thanks. Cecilia.
I am working in one of them. Probably it is to end of year and "The Tube World" will be called. Thanks to you.
20 22-05-2003 (16.59 h.)
Mike, never I have listened to nothing like "Five Thousands Out", in special "Taurus II". It is the disc that you have made it jeopardize more emotionally?
What I did in this case was that Phil Collins recorded the battery and soon I was giving him returned so that fitted in the band.
21 22-05-2003 (17.00 h.)
There will be Premiere to present/display Tb2003?
No, there will be no concert in direct. A launching for the press has become.
22 22-05-2003 (17.03 h.)
It is spoken of which "Tubular bells 2003" has a system anti-copy. What you think on the pirateo of discs?
The computer programs prepare them in Spain, that on the other hand also I have been in conversations with my lawyers on the record piracy. Clear I have found feelings I think that if outside young I think that I would like to copy all my favorite music to me, but soon is the people who begin... how they will follow with his race if they do not sell his music.
23 22-05-2003 (17.05 h.)
Much people think that the main reason for the regrabación of "Tubular Bells" must to that to Mike Oldfield no longer it has left ideas and does not know that to compose I would like to know that opinion has on that Mike Oldfield.
When inicar east project, was the first idea that came me to the mind. But I must decirte that I have left many ideas for new compositions. Nevertheless, also it is certain that this one was the opportune moment to return to record "Tubular bells".
24 22-05-2003 (17.07 h.)
Which will be the newness in the music of the future game "Tube World"?
"ambient" will be music because it is the music that better is lent for a computer game.
25 22-05-2003 (17.09 h.)
You have touched many aspects of music: the pop one, contemporary instrumental music, new age, BSO, electronics, etc... You have considered sometimes to make a entirely classic disc due to your classic influences in many aspects? Mike Thanks. You are most creative of the our time. Enrique (Elche).
I do not have a formation for classic music. Although there are times uses orchestras. I prefer to make the things to my way.
26 22-05-2003 (17.11 h.)

Greetings and thanks to comprise of the life of all your fans.
In the last tour, the Galician band Luar Na Lubre acted with me. Me entusiama this type of music but for the next project I do not have the intention to include this type of music. Greetings and thanks for your amiable words.
27 22-05-2003 (17.13 h.)

Kommentierte deutsche Zusammenfassung einiger Antworten von Mike (ohne Gewähr!!):
- Mike Oldfield wird möglicherweise eine 5.1 Version von Ommadawn aufnehmen.
- Mike wird sich wieder keltischen Einflüssen zuwenden, aber kein komplett keltisches Album machen.
- Mike fühlt sich wohl bei Warner Spain und hat nicht vor, die Plattenfirma zu wechseln.
- Zum Kopierschutz hat Mike ambivalente Gefühle. Er würde sich, wenn er junger Musikfan wäre, auch Musik herunterladen. Gleichzeitig sagt er, die Plattenfirma habe ihm einen Kopierschutz "vorgeschlagen" und er habe zugestimmt. Verstehe ich nicht, die Major Labels zwingen ihre Künstler doch dazu, die sich ja teilweise auch in Interviews lautstark darüber beklagen (Console z.B.)
Mike scheint aber nicht viel über den Kopierschutz zu wisdsen. Bei Johnny Walker meinte er, man könne die CD problemlos auf dem Computer abspielen. Haha. Ich als Mac- User kann das eh vergessen. Und ansonsten besteht das Problem von Pausen zwischen den Tracks, die ein Anhören im Fall von Tb2003 ja wohl unmöglich machen.
- The Tube World wird leider erst Ende des Jahres erscheinen, dafür aber wahrscheinlich neue Ambient- Musik enthalten (achtung: meine Interpretation einer Antwort).
- Am Spannendsten fand ich folgendes: Mike hat gesagt, er liest sich die Meinungen auf diversen Webseiten durch und allgemein macht er neuerdings den Eindruck, als wäre er interessierter an anderen Meinungen als früher. So fragte er auf der Pressekonferenz z.B. die Anwesenden, ob er zukünftig lieber kurze Stücke oder lange Instrumentals komponieren sollte. Die Anwesenden haben sich, so Mike, deutlich für lange Instrumentals ausgesprochen. Ich habe ein gutes Gefühl, daß TB 2003 ihm wieder Inspiration gegeben hat und vielleicht Interesse an komplexerer Musik.
Was ich nicht verstanden habe (genauso wie das mit Maggie Reilly und 197
: Mike erwähnt Phil Collins im Zusammenhang mit Five Miles Out. Aber der ist doch nur auf QE2 zu hören, oder?
