Interviews

Tête-à-tête with the 21st century's cultural icons.

"Why don't you fucking do what we pay you to do which is run the fucking country and make your fucking mind up...that are you asking the people for? 99 percent of the people are thick as pig shit." - Noel Gallagher for the CBC

"You have guys on television saying I’m a Jew like the Jews in the Nazi camps who helped bring the other Jews to ovens. I have people that I lost in the Holocaust and I just … go fuck yourself. How dare you?!" - Jon Stewart for the National Post

"I’m not interested in making albums; I’m interested in making worlds and lives. Because we can do that now. Whole songs can be worlds and lives, really live and breathe. I only see things as organic. People keep talking about how digital doesn’t feel and I get what they’re saying [...] Robots are human, in the sense of ones and zeroes. We do that too. It’s all organic. It’s all just different ways of how things work. I believe The Sims are alive, on some level. Why does it feel a little good when I flirt with a girl on The Sims and she’s like, ‘Oh, I like that a little bit’? Why do I give a fuck? Because it is real on some level." - The Ballad of Donald Glover for Postmedia

"I was DJing at festivals and looking around like, ‘What is my place in this landscape? How do I compete?’ I thought, what can I do that only I can do, so that I’m only really competing with myself?" - Mark Ronson for the National Post

"EDM is just a 25 year-long fad. It’ll go away. Just like pants did in 1840.” - Deadmau5 for the CBC
