I've been trying to write really simple songs to make them sound like they're coming out of a satellite that's crashing into a gas giant or something.

I'm f**king pathetic when it comes to being an entertainer. People come because they want to see me have a nervous breakdown.

I think maybe I'm trying to forget or not be so conscious about plastic circuitry and just go for the feeling.

It takes me forever to write songs most of the time.

A lot of the stuff I listen to is glitchy electronic stuff and stuff with beats.

When people want me to sign records they usually always have Vivadixie[submarinetransmissions], and I think that's a lot of people's favorite record. And that was sort of when I was just learning what I was doing.
