I didn't want to be on a major label. I wanted all the attention and the noise to go away because I wanted to be something a little bit more substantial.

I never had any expectations of winning a Grammy. It wasn't something I was set on, that I was hoping and praying and starving for.

Sea Change was so specific. From the beginning it was set what it was going to be. All the other ideas that I had at the time I had to put to the side.

I think trying to be offbeat is the most boring thing possible.

There's a perception that if an artist produces another artist, they're going to imprint on them. But I'm the opposite.

I'm sure the music is going to come out. I'm not sure if I'm going to put out 12"s or put the songs on my website. I just have to get them done.

I would love to do an electronic record. There's just so much to see and do and try. And life goes by.
