For the longest time, I wanted to become a pianist. That was kinda my thing.

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 never feel like I need to make a song that sells 5 million copies; that's not the point of why I make music. It's great if that happens, like it did with 'Clarity,' but my goal is to always make a better track than the last one.

I would never say I will stay in electronic music for the rest of my life. I will always do whatever I feel like at that moment.

I can't just sit down and make a song in a day. It's only possible if you focus on the music and not the sound.

A lot of EDM is not bad at all when it's simple, but a lot of it is not really musical. That's just what I really like to do: taking what I had at the beginning, which is classical and jazz influences, and putting it into electro.

The problem with my eyes is that they have been famished, but now they are feasting.
