This isn't about the money. This is just for me. I love music.

I doubt I'll ever pay someone to do a remix again, because there's some amazing stuff just coming out of bedrooms.

My music is a luxury.

You know, I never did music for money. I did music to hear myself in the club, and to hear my creation on the radio.

Yeah, if someone's selling downloads and collecting money for our songs I would be unhappy about that but if they're trading it I don't mind, obviously if I make a thousand records or CDs or whatever, I like to sell a thousand.

Every dollar I made from DJing, I put into my videos, promotion - everything.

I've made money, and I've been ripped off. I've had creative freedom, and I've been pressured to make hits. I have dealt with diva behavior from crazy musicians, and I have seen genius records by wonderful artists get completely ignored. I love music. I always will.

Music has always been my back door to life. It is important for people to find something that excites them. I like the concept that if you do what excites you, you will be rewarded generously, whatever form reward takes, which is not necessarily money.

I am in a business that's built on record sales and reputation and how your single is doing and where your song is on iTunes. But the kind of music that I do comes from my beliefs.

Music is my living. I enjoy selling my music.
