What is your favorite genre of music and why?

Indie. To me, the genre means anything on an independent record label. The title is a loophole that lets me group hip-hop and pop/rock into my favorite categories as long as the songs are semi-obscure.

Have you ever been caught lip-syncing or dancing at a stop light?
Every day. I do karaoke sober. I have no shame.

What was your best moment as a DJ?
A caller told me that she had been having a terrible day, but knowing that the song I was playing existed turned it around. The song was a cover of the Wizard of Oz’s “If I Only Had a Brain” by The Flaming Lips.

Which three artists would you choose to collaborate on a song?
Stuart Murdoch from Belle & Sebastian, Britt Daniel from Spoon and Neko Case.
