I usually write my music on a piano, and I really enjoy performing that way, because that actually shows how the music was in my mind before it actually became an electronic song.

I love silence. But I usually only listen to that when I'm sleeping.

What I don't like to hear in music is something has not been thought through: that a sound is just there randomly. I want to make sure that every single little noise that's in my song is there because it's supposed to be there.

One agonizing journey down the gauntlet of youth is enough for any man.

I don't want to put 12 singles on an album. I want to make a story, a little movie.

A DJ can't just play one song. It's about playing a set, or how you connect songs in those two hours, and where you place them.
