Flume

It was a difficult second record. I had moments where I couldn't write; had moments where I was writing lots. It was just a massive learning process for me.

The goal was always to do something that felt human but was 100 percent electronic.

I just want to write another record that's as good or better than the one I've already made. That's my main goal, to follow up stronger than before.

Combining sounds that are from another universe with the classic songwriting structures never gets old for me.

Back in the day, I had this fluoro pink hoodie that I thought was the coolest thing ever. Left it at a party and never saw it again. Probably the best thing that could have happened.

I had this little Bon Iver phase a few years back; 'Flume' was one of my favourite songs.

The thing I find frustrating about rock music is, how different can you make an acoustic drum kit sound, an electric guitar and vocals?

In the right context, you can make ugly sounds, different sounds feel right at home.

I never expected to make a lot of money from music.

For me, I would prefer to not have my face on the album cover. I don't mind being in the public, but it's just not really my personality, and it's not really why I'm into this. I like making art, and that's it. I don't really want to be a celebrity, seriously. I like my privacy.

I was nine, and I was shopping in a supermarket with my dad. There was this cereal, and it had a special promotion with a CD inside the box that had a really simple music-making program on it. I got it, and that opened my mind to being able to make music on a computer and seeing all the different layers.
