People see me on stage and sometimes they think, "Who's this hotdog thinking that he's the best." They miss the point that what I'm doing now comes from a whole different world of doing it for no one with nobody caring.

My start came with experimental musicians and live bands. I never played with DJ's because it wasn't really the correct fit. It fit in more with someone using a laptop to create their own electronic music. When you're doing music like that, it's hard to get more than 20 people to come to your show.

The primary goal isn't a financial gain; it's to put out interesting music.

I guess in a way I try to avoid being labeled as a traditional DJ.

That's something I've always been down with: creative commons and people being able to license their music and allow other people to reuse it and recycle it.

A lot of times people have issues with me because they don't understand where I'm coming from and haven't seen the years and years of hard work and shows I've played.

Nowadays when you buy music its like you're donating to that cause, because you most likely could hear it in some capacity for free.
