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

I always like to borrow bits and pieces of things. There's a line between jumping on something that's happening and incorporating bits and pieces of it into my work.

When I'm performing, this is what everything builds up to, and everything has allowed me to be here.

I listen to music constantly, and I'm always hearing things I love that I'm excited to use.

You can write very obtuse and abstract lyrics, and if they want to, people are going to find something amazing that you're saying.

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.

My music should fall under fair use because it's transformative, it's becoming its own entity, and it's not negatively impacting anyone's sales.
