I'm most excited about going swimming and riding water slides, shooting off fireworks, and playing basketball, and things like that. That's what I really love doing. Summer is a great time.

It's hard to play a laptop in the midst of band and have people want to buy your t-shirts and CD's.

I want the material I make to be mine; that's always the goal of the record and of the show.

I think some people form the traditional DJ worlds misunderstand where I'm coming form.

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.

Something that distinguishes my solo work from normal rap production is that it has a lot of melody - it's not just cutting up a song and having someone rap over it.

I can't wait to wake up in the morning and listen to music in order to try to find something to work with.
