I wanted to make something that raised questions and was completely different and challenged the way most people experienced electronic music. So some people don't like me; that's OK.

People would lambaste me or attack me, and I'd be like, "I'm being honest! I'm the one person that's being honest and sincere about what I'm doing." The rest of the world doesn't want to admit the fakery of entertainment on TV, but I love the fake. I think fake is beautiful.

If something was confusing or difficult, then it was a positive thing. Confusion is a positive.

It was cool to feel this global electronic thing happening. But it just got to be too much at a certain point.

The things I'm making and doing I really like and think are interesting; I'm drawn to them.

I liked it when there was a certain amount of people who did not like what I was doing. If anything, I thought that was a positive thing.

We, as band, always positioned ourselves between art and entertainment, which often works against us - Fischerspooner is between business models. Art is about limiting access to the product to create value, and entertainment is about dispersing it. We've put ourselves in a position where, if we reach conceptual perfection, it's career suicide.
