I'm training myself to go back to the way I used to record before electronic programs.

Identity politics are becoming less important since culture's being blended into one big thing - I look at kids' Tumblrs and they're all into the same things.

Parking's expensive, so I walk or ride my bike, which is good because my girlfriend's getting her PhD as an environmental engineer.

Not all of my songs are electronic, they're not house or dancey.

Maybe one day I'll write my rock album so I can use more obscure references and just be weird. If the lyrics are too crazy, though, then it's not pop anymore.

It's really cool to be around people that are younger than you who are really cool with being open about stuff.

I don't put categories on music, myself. So either people go with it or they don't, and sometimes the names sound a little silly.
