Communicating with musicians is really interesting because everyone has their quirks and their strengths and their weaknesses.

I used to be really into traditional meditation, but I found that creating new music is the best meditation. When I'm able to get into that space, nothing else matters, and I'm just a vessel for whatever the message is; I feel like I'm not in control. It's like this organic communication, and I feel like that is the quiet, in a way.

I'm not the kind of person who's always out at the club if I don't have to be. I like chilling. I think that comes across in my music.

I feel some responsibility to shine light on things that I love.

I'm not going to be like, "I gotta get this idea out of my head." It's like, "OK, here's a clean slate, and I've got all these paints, and all these brushes, and this is what I'm going to do with it." It reveals itself, and you take a step back and say, "What's happening here? Where are we going? What does this mean? Do I need to break it open? Does it need to just be what it is? Should it end now?"

I just understand that Im supposed to be one of those people that disrupts the flavor a little bit.
