When you're 18 and you've made the album of your dreams, you're not really thinking about the machinery that will actually take it to the public. You just think: "I've done the best thing that I could ever do and this is the most magic moment for me."

An electronic instrument is just harboring a natural element the same way that a guitar is harboring an acoustic element. It's all nature, really.

Part of being human is having a sense of humor.

Transport drives me crazy. I find myself on this constant conveyor belt and the planes, buses, traffic jams, ugh.

I finally realized that so much of the music world is about how much money you've got, how much you can pay to make your record successful.

Growing up, I never thought about the thing called money.

I became slightly disillusioned, but in a really good way that enabled me to realize that the music was the most important thing, and that the rest of it is total bullshit.
