I don't care if I get kicked out of every rich kid club on the planet. I will never sacrifice my integrity as a DJ...ever.

I would rather have 10 people working on a record that are really committed and believe in it and love it, than 50 people who have no idea who I am or what I'm for.

I remember when the big shift happened in 1996-97, when suddenly it dawned on the music community: 'We should license our music to commercials and sell out for all intents and purposes. It doesn't really matter.'

People love drama, and if you aren't really interested in perpetuating that, it keeps you from exploding on a mainstream stage. I'm totally fine with that.

Any good album title has multiple meanings, and I like choosing titles where I find myself repeating it, almost like a mantra.

Everything right now tends to be the same and very aggressive, and I think people are getting a little burned out on it.

When I think about the stuff I turned down it's kind of insane.
