I think what people get confused about is that they want to label me as this EDM girl, but a lot of this stuff is genre-less.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It doesn't matter to me what the genre is.
Compared to EDM, I feel like there are a lot of girls at my shows.
I just don't let music genres define me.
I leave the genre labeling to other people. I really do. If I were to think too hard about it, that would stifle you creatively. If you think too hard about who other people want you to be as an artist, it stops you from being who you want to be as an artist.
I think I'm sort of blind to genre. As long as it has a sort of honesty about it, which I think you'll hear in whatever music you respond to, then I think it doesn't need to be called anything particularly.
For me, genres are a way for people to easily categorize music. But it doesn't have to define you. It doesn't have to limit you.
I think people were looking for something new in the EDM scene and found it in my music.
I write all of my songs from scratch, so the one thing I love about EDM is the way a song transforms into a piece of art, and how the different sounds can change the feel of the record.
I basically get stereotyped a lot in terms of being a girl and writing 'chick' music for teenage girls or something. I think, if anything, the press kind of, because of my gender and my age, tends to kind of relegate my work to this sort of special-interest group. It's part of the cultural dynamic, I guess.
I'm not loyal to one genre. I want to mix it up.
