I was in bar about 15 years ago, a relationship had ended badly, I was very drunk and I thought I would convince myself to try and be gay. Like, at one point I didn't like coffee, then I learned to like it.

Traffic terrifies me.

Doing interviews and touring are two ways that I can try to bring my music to people. It can be tiring, but it's better than working at Burger King.

I'd much rather go out and have music randomly presented to me by different DJs than stay home and discover it on my own.

As a New Yorker you can't help but be proud of the fact that so much music and culture started here. Punk rock, jazz, hip-hop and house music started here, George Gershwin debuted 'Rhapsody in Blue' here; the Velvet Underground are from New York.

I'm just fascinated with the world that I can see, but I'm even more fascinated with the world that I can't see.

The only sort of descriptive adjective or catch phrase for my music would be 'eclectic.'
