90 के दशक में 'ग्रिज़ली बेयर' जैसी कोई इंडी रॉक बैंड नहीं था। मैं उनके रिकॉर्ड सुनता हूँ और यह हैरान करने वाला है कि वे कितने बेहतरीन लगते हैं। यह सचमुच मुझे चकित कर देता है।

There was no indie rock band in the 90s at the level of, like, Grizzly Bear. I listen to their records and it's crazy how good they sound. That really freaks me out.

कुछ बैंड्स हैं, जैसे आर.ई.एम., जो 17 रिकॉर्ड निकालना चाहते हैं, जिनमें से कुछ बेहद खराब और कुछ शानदार होते हैं। मुझे नहीं पता कि आज के समय में लोग इस तरह से सोचते भी हैं या नहीं। अब चीज़ें ज़्यादा बंटी हुई हैं।

There are bands, like R.E.M., who want to have 17 records, and some are terrible and some are great. I don't know if people think like that anymore. Things are more atomized now.

मुझे सुबह-सुबह, लगभग 5 बजे लिखना पसंद है। अगर मेरा दिमाग पूरी तरह से शांत और केंद्रित है, तो मैं कोई कॉफी या स्टीमुलेंट नहीं लेता। मैं एक तरह से सपनों की दुनिया में होता हूँ।

I like to write early in the morning, like, 5 a.m. If I'm really on my game, I don't have any coffee or stimulants. I'm kind of in a dream state.

आजकल, ज़्यादातर लोग यूट्यूब पर डालने के लिए वीडियो रिकॉर्ड कर रहे हैं। मेरा मानना है कि यूट्यूब आखिरकार संगीतकारों के लिए नंबर 1 मीडिया प्लेटफॉर्म है। जो कि अजीब है, क्योंकि इसके साथ एक विजुअल जुड़ा हुआ है।

Now, by and large, people are recording material to put on YouTube. I have a theory that YouTube is, in the end, the #1 media for musicians. Which is strange, because there's a visual associated with it.

नए और कच्चे गानों को लाइव बजाने को लेकर बहुत शिकायतें औरनारजगी रहती है, लेकिन कोई नहीं चाहता कि वह गाना यूट्यूब पर 74 नापसंद (थम्ब्स डाउन) वोटों के साथ यह कहते हुए खत्म हो जाए: "यह सबसे घटिया है!"

There's a lot of griping and groaning about wanting to play half-baked new songs live, but you don't want it to just end up on YouTube with like 74 thumbs down: "This is the worst!"

मुझे एक ऐसा संगीतकार बनना पसंद है जो चुपचाप सब देखता रहे (मक्खी बनकर दीवार पर बैठने जैसा)। मुझे अच्छा लगता है जब लोग कमरे में आते हैं, अपना काम करते हैं और चले जाते हैं। मुझे ध्यान आकर्षित करना पसंद है, लेकिन अगर लोग खुद को संभालकर रख रहे हैं और असली इंसान नहीं बन रहे हैं, तो एक परफॉर्मर के तौर पर मेरे लिए काम करना थोड़ा मुश्किल हो जाता है।

I like being a musician that's also a fly on the wall. I like people coming in the room and doing what they do and then leaving. I like attention, but it actually gives me a little less to work with as a performer if people are editing themselves and not being them.

पुराने समय में जब आप कोई गाना लिखते थे, तो वह लाइव परफॉर्म करने के लिए होता था। और अगर आपको शो पसंद आता था, तो आप वहां से सीडी खरीद लेते थे। हो सकता है आप उस सीडी को कभी सुनें ही नहीं, बस उसे गाड़ी की पिछली सीट पर फेंक दें और धूप में वो खराब हो जाए। असली बात यह थी कि आपने उस गाने को लाइव शो में सुना था।

When you wrote a song way back in the day, you were writing material to play live. And you would buy the CD at the shows if you like the show. You may not listen to the CD, you might just throw it in the back of your car and let it warp in the sun. The main thing was you saw the song at the show.

आपका अहंकार बहुत जल्दी जाग जाता है, आप खुद को ही प्रभावित करने की कोशिश करने लगते हैं। लेकिन जब आप बाद में उसे देखते हैं, तो कभी-कभी आपको लगता है, "अरे यार, यह हिस्सा? मुझे नहीं पता। इस बंदे को सचमुच सुधार की ज़रूरत है।"

मैंने जे-ज़ी का एक इंटरव्यू देखा था जिसमें उन्होंने कहा था कि वे अपने गाने के बोल लिखकर नहीं रखते, इसलिए मैंने भी वही आज़माया।

काम करने का मेरा कोई तय तरीका नहीं है। कुछ गाने बहुत धीरे-धीरे बनते हैं, तो कुछ बास्केटबॉल देखते हुए महज़ 10 मिनट में बन जाते हैं। वे हमेशा मेरे लिए एक सरप्राइज की तरह होते हैं।

अगर कोई बैंड अपने इंस्ट्रूमेंट्स उठाते ही ऐसे दो से चार आइडिया नहीं ला पाता, तो उनमें कोई गड़बड़ है - भले ही उनमें से एक भी गाना न बने। अगर किसी बैंड में ऐसा नहीं हो रहा है, तो समझ लीजिए कि उन्हें थेरेपी या अलग होने की ज़रूरत है।

If a band isn't coming up with two to four of those when they pick up their instruments, then they have problems - even if none of them turn into a song. If that's not happening in a band, it's time for therapy or breaking up.

मैं युवा रॉक बैंड्स के रवैये से बहुत प्रभावित हूँ, यहाँ तक कि उन बैंड्स से भी जो इससे पैसे कमा रहे हैं। मैंने कभी उन्हें इसे 'करियर' के रूप में बात करते नहीं सुना। इसे देखकर तो लगभग ऐसा लगता है मानो अब कोई म्यूज़िक इंडस्ट्री बची ही नहीं है, जैसे कोई परमाणु बम गिरा हो और सब कुछ हमेशा के लिए मिट गया हो।

I'm fascinated with the attitude of younger rock bands, even ones that are making money at it. I don't ever hear them talk about it as a "career." It almost makes me think there isn't even a music industry anymore, like an atom bomb fell and it was just eradicated forever.
