Everyone is trying to make these huge songs; I just make things that I want to listen to. Music that I will be comfortable listening to 10 years from now, that's my only thing.

I'm into heavy duty, psychedelic, foreign music. That's what I like listening to.

I'm a man of different types of flavors and tastes. I like listening to things that inspire me. Older music, when instruments were being played, not just people hitting buttons. It's manlier. You're touching things to make sounds appear.

Anything that catches my ear, I'm into. Things that are different, that change what you're listening to.

Billy Joel is an incredible musician. He just feels like one of the guys, you know. I grew up listening to his music.

This is just rap. I'm not trying to make people think I'm some sort of scientific wizard or inspirational poet.
