I'm bad for your health, like puttin' a pistol up to your face and blastin' yourself.

When the ideas are coming, I don't stop until the ideas stop because that train doesn't come along all the time.

People are always coming up to me, thinking I've got some magic wand that can make them a star and I want to tell them that no one can do that. Making hit records is not that easy. But it took me time to realize that myself.

The record business. It’s exactly what it is-Record-Busin ess. You have to take care of both, or they won’t take care of you.

Engineering and mixing are absolutely key. Once a song is done, for me personally, it's usually two or three days to get the mix down.

I just want to get my music out and make sure that it's heard in the right way.

I love the new technology. New things give you a reason to want to go to the studio. New challenges mean you have to keep up, you know?
