I wasn't raised Catholic; I just really like the image of a neutral and benign Mary floating around somewhere, being nice to people.

Punishing people for listening to music is exactly the wrong way to protect the music business.

In some ways it's hard to see electronic music as a genre because the word "electronic" just refers to how it's made. Hip-hop is electronic music. Most reggae is electronic. Pop is electronic. House music, techno, all these sorts of ostensibly disparate genres are sort of being created with the same equipment.

I think that Eminem is very talented and remarkably bright, and I actually do like a lot of his music.

I just want to try - on a daily basis keep trying - to make music that I really love.

My main interest is just to work with people who have beautiful, interesting, emotive voices; I'm not too concerned whether someone is famous.

I've done the performing monkey stuff and massive breakdowns, it's just they weren't documented.
