When I would play pop music at underground shows, it was offensive to some people. I wasn't doing it to piss people off: I just didn't believe in those strong divisions that you're supposed to listen to this or that.

When you're playing for 30 people and you're jumping around stage, screaming, getting in peoples faces and acting cocky you're kind of poking fun at yourself.

It's weird for me when someone asks me to do a remix as Girl Talk and not use samples.

I've always enjoyed taking pre-existing sound, songs I like, songs I want to share, and manipulating them and trying to do my own version. So just knowing there's that potential for that thing out there that I haven't discovered yet, really gets me motivated every day.

I guess people naturally try to find meaning in music.

I always like the people who keep moving forward, but kind of stay in their own lane.

I'm interested in branching out and seeing where my music goes.
