In the Chili Peppers I'm a part of that world in a pretty big world and that's just the way it is.

Music is energy, and energy is the single most important form of it in the world. Without energy, there is no life. The only difference between a dead person and a live person is the energy, the electricity flowing inside their system, and that's what makes music.

What I do on my solo stuff is just the most natural version of who I am, and I’m trying to represent the feelings that I’m feeling as purely as possible

I'm also very impressed with the best people in experimental electronic world, like Peta and Eckart Aillers and Finez and Jim O'Rourke and Oren Umbarci and Francesco Lopez. Most of them use the computer as their main instrument.

I just like to switch things up all the time. Like when it comes to singing, I try to find a different character for each song.

I'm going through a phase where I'm really accomplishing a lot of things and in that is everything I've learned.

We are all very lucky to live in a world where there is this much music.
