Especially With Music, People Want Confidence.

I Write Music Better In The Winter, I Prefer Making Music When It's Dark.

I Would Never Go To A Studio. I Need My Space, You Know What I Mean? I Need To Be Able To Chain Smoke And Pace About, Cry And Like... Spit. Just Make Noise, Make A Huge Mess. I Also Feel Like If I Was Concerned For The Cost Of The Studio - Like, 'this Is Costing 40 Dollars An Hour' - I Wouldn't Be Able To Work.

I Usually Like To Get People In Because I Don't Have A Band Or Anything. In Cities Where I Have Friends, I Try To Get Them To Come Out And Dance For Me.

I Want To Make Grimes A High-fashion Sci-fi Act.

One Thing With Montreal Is It's So Cold And Everyone's So Poor And Beer's So Cheap: If You Go To A Show You Have To Brave The Weather To Get There. So You Show Up And Everyone's Soaking Wet - There's A Sense Of 'i Trekked Through Three Feet Of Snow To Get Here!' I Think There's A Kind Of Camaraderie That Arises Out Of That, That's Important To Me As Well.
