It's always a struggle to make things sound more or less brilliant.

Obviously, it's great to know that your music is being listened to.

When something goes into the world, you immediately begin to develop another perspective on yourself, another identity.

Sound is a very unruly thing, and you have to really respect that it's going to differ every time you play.

We feel more and more intensely about the music we make. It's unexpected, and not always what you would think of in Beach House. It's all art in the end. We aren't making records because we have to; it's because it's what we want to express.

In general, I think I'm a very private person. But I also love human beings.

I think the Yamaha has a giant quality. When you combine the Yamaha with other organs, you get this crazy rectangular sound. It's kind of flat and thick.
