Remixes come very quickly, because you already have the melody and the vocals. I have a great passion for music, so it doesn't matter to me if it's a remix or an original production. I don't think about it as, 'Well, I have to spend three hours on a remix or I have to do something all original.'

Sometimes, a remix is good because it reaches a whole new generation. But when it gets too much, it's irritating. Also, the original composer needs to be credited properly.

I think remixes give songs more life.

I like the way remixes sound. Some of them are really creative.

I don't want to say I hate remixes, because I don't, but I hate what instantly comes to mind now when people say 'remixes.'

The difference between doing a remix and an original track is that when you do a remix, you obviously already have the original track as a starting point. But with the originals you start from scratch.

I like to blur the line between remix and cover version and new song.

I'm not going to lie; I'm not a huge remix person.

I've remixed lots of other people's songs, from Adele to Electric Light Orchestra to Beyonce, so when my record label said, 'Why don't you give 'Ibiza' to someone to remix?' I said, 'Sure,' because I like the idea of people reimagining art and making something new out of it.

I really enjoy doing remixes, but I don't want to be known as just a 'remix artist' for the rest of my career.
