You just want to go back to those 70s albums. Even a lot of the 90s indie records were still done on tape, and you hear the difference.

It was disturbing to me that an idea or a song could become something so different from what you originally intended. It's like if a friend took a stupid picture of you at a party on their phone, and the next thing you knew, it was on every billboard.

I didn't want to do something typical.

I think my whole generation's mission is to kill the cliche.

Your heart is a drum keeping time with everyone.

There's an infinite amount of possibilities and detours and things that can distract you from actually just performing the song and having whatever emotion that's invested into the song come through in the recording.

It gets a little bit troublesome when you have something that's overcompressed that shouldn't be.
