My core values are still the same about music, and my work ethic, and what I want to represent to people.

I personally feel the need to experience life and new music and ideas before I can sit down and start writing music again.

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

You can be a great DJ and still be not very good at DJ Hero. And vice-versa: You can have never spun in your life on real turntables and be fine on DJ Hero.

It's about respecting what I think people like about the original music. I'm not gonna ever take it to the extent that I'm kinda George Lucas-ing moments of the album over and over again, trying to get them right over the next 30 years - I don't wanna do anything like that. But, yeah - it's a... fascinating conundrum through the years.

I still consider myself a consumer of music more than anything else.

I couldn't make a real drum'n'bass or dubstep record to save my life. But I can be influenced by them in small ways.
