At the end of the day, I think that I'm making music for me as that 12-year-old kid in front of my boombox every day. I try to think about, if I'm that little kid, what would he like?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If I can help a kid discover a liking, or even a passion for music in their life, then that's a wonderful thing.
Kids these days don't know as much about music as they think they do.
A lot of music you might listen to is pretty vapid, it doesn't always deal with our deeper issues. These are the things I'm interested in now, particularly at my age.
I've dreamed about doing music since I was three or four years old.
No matter what, I'm always interested in making music.
I first fell in love with music when I was a little boy. When I first heard music, I felt the beauty in it. Then, being able to tap along on a table top and box was great, but my favorite thing to do was to watch records spin. I would almost get hypnotized by it. These things are what drew me in initially.
But I could not imagine having a child and the child not having a relationship with music that opens up their mind and their imagination and teaches them things.
I like to make music that feels good, that I can listen to with my mom and dad. I don't think you'll see me swinging on a wrecking ball any time soon! But if I do, that will be a day! My dad might have a heart attack.
When I was 10, 11, 12 years old, I would pretend to be on the radio. I bought a mixer and these big, ugly headphones and I would literally broadcast the cassette tapes in my bedroom.
I kind of always wanted my own music to just sound like, like me, I suppose, like if I was music it would be the music I make, I think.
