Gold Panda interview on Pitchfork Media including the choice quotes:
Pitchfork: Did you ever try to get a proper job?
Gold Panda: Yeah, but it didn’t work. I got fired once for putting like a packet of biscuits through a fan— I was really bored. And I worked at an HMV, but I ended up telling my boss that I thought he was a cock, and got fired.
Pitchfork: I wanted to ask you about some of your remixes…
Gold Panda: I hate them all! [laughs] Seriously. Apart from maybe the Telepathe one.
Pitchfork: What about the Bloc Party one?
Gold Panda: I did that one because I was like, “Wow, they’re giving me 500 quid!” I instantly quit my job at the time, which was at a sex shop.
Pitchfork: [laughs] How did you end up there?
Gold Panda: I just got really desperate to pay rent. It was weird, man. I had to wrestle a fake pussy off a crack head once.
