When I'm making a song that's very Grimes, it just feels very insular and it feels weird to have someone else do something on it.

Miami is just really fun whenever I go there. It's like this post-apocalyptic Barbie world: everything is pink, and there're palm trees everywhere. But then there are also all these people in crazy sunglasses, warehouses with sick parties where all the girls are covered in spikes and black leather. It's a very weird place.

It's kind of like I'm Phil Spector, and I'm forcing a young girl to make pop music and perform exhaustively. Except, instead of it being someone else, that girl is also me.

You rarely find someone who sings really well and who produces really well; it's a problem, and I just think it's a missing link in the music scene.

I have an intense desire to constantly make music, and I don't feel that way about anything else.

When I first started out, I was making really slow, psychedelic ambient music because it was all I could do.
