I don't watch TV. In my spare time, if I have any, I want to make music. ”

I grew up in the eighties; that's probably why I like some of the earlier electronic from Kraftwerk to all throughout new wave and things like that. ”

I love some electronic music. I'm not a big fan of dubstep, but there is so much good electronic music out there. ”

I learned how to play guitar by playing along to Jane's Addiction records and Smashing Pumpkins records, things you can totally hear if you listen to my guitar. ”

I have a feeling a lot of the records I grew up listening to and the records I still like, as hard as musicians worked making them, I feel like they were really enjoying what they were going through. They weren't just going through the process. You can tell that with certain things that you listen to. ”

A chance to work with the guys from Isis sounded like a lot of fun. I've always been into the atmospheric sounds they had created with that project and felt my sense of melody would meld well with theirs. ”

I used to second guess myself all the time. I can sit there and work in circles when I'm nervous about what I'm doing. ”
