It's not really a conscious decision to do a quiet album or a noisier album. It's just something that happens, I guess.

I like to think that the music is a mixture of personal experiences mixed with photography and movies.

I think you go through different phases when you do albums, and I think that they change according to where you are in your life and what you're inspired by at the moment.

If you want to do a movie about aliens coming down to Earth nowadays, you need to do it with a smile.

I'm just the kind of person who needs a change every once in a while. I'm not comfortable staying in the same spot for too long. Even 10 years, for me, is a very long time. I usually don't stay longer than a few years in a place.

Photography and movies are a much bigger influence on me than music is itself.

I don't know if people come to the shows of the Raveonetteswith any certain expectations. I think that we have fans who know that we're not... hugely entertaining in any way. We don't put on a show, so to speak. We basically just play the music the way it's supposed to be heard - very loud, in a packed club, and in a good setting. People can stand still with their eyes closed, or they can dance. They can do whatever they want. We don't care.
