All the best bands have a language, and what they say within that language makes it is what it is.

I love the idea that the person that signs you makes the record, because you get that sense of guidance, of being there at that close point.

I like the notion of guiding, because I can offer advice through my own experiences, tastes and beliefs. But it's all in that individual's hands.

I don't know if this is a good thing to say, but the musical obsession has almost shifted to a creative obsession now.

Running a label in 2013, you don't do it for any financial purpose, you do it for all the amazing creative aspects of what you can achieve.

I think I just want to make and be part of great records, because of what it brings to other people, what it gives back, is so incredible.

There's zero correlation between owning music and being a greater music lover or musician than the next person.
