What becomes a song of summer most? It better be catchy, it ought to be breezy, it helps if it's snappy. And it needs to stick in your head and not aggravate you again and again and again. (Sorry, Avril Lavigne's "Girlfriend": I was sweet on you at first, but you became grating, and our affair was brief.)

• Five Words with Girl Talk

HIPSTER: I love the idea of the word "hipster." I've never met anyone who's wanted to be called a "hipster." In the late '90s when I was getting involved in the music scene, "semester" faded into "hipster." "Scenester" seemed to have such negative connotations. But I think people should . embrace what they're into. If anyone says I make "hipster" music that's fine, but I just make stuff out of pop. I wish people would get "hipster" tattoos and appropriate it back in a positive way. I don't like making fun of people for any music, art or style interest.
