“Which nostalgic memory are you?”

How did the internet shape your youth?Hm, this is an interesting question coming from you. I think you’re far more qualified to talk about this than I am.I always viewed the internet as a kind of telescope. It’s a way of seeing these amazing, far-off things that you don’t necessarily have to be socially IRL involved with, but it’s a way of getting a glimpse into different worlds. I know it’s especially true for me, because I grew up in Guernsey, which is a tiny island off the coast of France.

I think being from a place like that is actually super beneficial, just because it gives you such an interesting outsider view. Like when I came to London, I didn’t understand how the fuck to have good taste or where to find new music. I didn’t know you could just go to a museum and see art, or go and see a rock band. At first, it felt kind of limiting and I felt kind of outsider-y, but I’ve come to realize it’s actually a great strength to have that outside perspective.

Do you think that it’s important to look back at our adolescence and our childhood? We have to look back to understand where we are now, but how do we look back without romanticizing it? I’m giving you essay-question realness.That’s kind of the question that the album is asking. I try not to come to a conclusion on it on this album just because I want people to mull it over themselves, and I think music that’s prescriptive like that is kind of preachy.

or our song that made you kind of feel like losing yourself a little bit. Do you think that’s an important balance in adolescence?Definitely. There was another interview that I was doing and someone asked me, “Is it more important to have vulnerability, or is it more important to have hedonistic joyfulness?” And my answer was just like, “Why not both?” I think the most powerful music is when you can achieve all of those things at once. Like the Georgia track, particularly.
