There are a lot of musicians I've met on Twitter where it was like, 'Hey, I like your music' - and then I ended up meeting them and it turned into a friendship.
added although best ended fire forward fuel great looking opportunity perhaps players returning season
We are all looking forward to the 2005 season. The 2004 season we had some great success. Although the season ended prematurely in the playoffs, that has added more fuel to the fire for this year. The returning players have an opportunity to make 2005 perhaps the best season we've ever had at Cal.

My image seems to be so infantilized, and I don't really know why. It belittles the music.
cranking hits job
My dream job would be sitting in a room, cranking out hits for Rihanna.

My favorite music is never the music that anyone else likes, and other people's favorite songs are always my least favorite.
insular
When I'm making a song that's very Grimes, it just feels very insular and it feels weird to have someone else do something on it.

I think if you're good at art, you'll be good at most types of art.
experience music musical people
I went through my adolescence having this revelatory experience - I can have any music I want, and I can get it immediately. For me and for a lot of people I know, there's this musical eclecticism that happened.
My set can get really screamo and aggressive, or it can be ambient and Enya-esque.
music
Most of my music videos were made for under $200.
incredibly school
I was incredibly unpopular in high school but also extremely notorious.
I think I have serious latent Catholic guilt issues.
I like to aestheticize every possible thing that can be aestheticized.

When I first started out, I was making really slow, psychedelic ambient music because it was all I could do.
