Quote

I think it's silly when people try compartmentalize musical genres. That was always my problem with the chillwave thing - people were trying to make it into some kind of musical movement, when it was not a movement. A couple dudes had a couple songs for a couple months. It's going to be a disparate onslaught of people throwing ideas at the wall.

I like things that are contradictory or seem one way but are another way. I think it's more genuine. It's the way I am. I am very positive in certain ways and extremely negative in other ways. I think it's most appropriate if I can write a super pop-y song singing about killing myself.

There's no love in my songs. There's just a lot of resentment. Just bad attitude. But that's intentional, that's what I like. I love the whole idea of Motown. Their idea was to sing how down on their luck they were, but the song implied hope that it would get better. I liked that idea, and I wanted to go even further with it.

I'm definitely one of those people who feels that they were born in the wrong era. I don't know if that's nostalgia. I have a hard time relating to most current things. It's funny because I get associated with nostalgia a lot, but I don't hang out being like, Man, if it were 1986... If only...!

The whole appeal of dance music is being liberated because music is liberating and it's not about club culture or the social aspect of playing the mating game or whatever you're doing at a club. It's more about the euphoric aspect of listening to music.
