It’s always this thing where we’re constantly waiting for something that will come in electronic music that says, ‘Daft Punk sucks!’ That’s actually much more interesting and exciting than someone who is paying homage.

The place of electronic music, culturally and socially, is today completely different - it is now everywhere, and it has been totally accepted.

Electronic music right now is in its comfort zone, and it's not moving one inch.
