Outside of Interpol, Banks is an avid beatmaker who hasn't listened to rock music in over 20 years.

He DJs hip-hop under the name Fancy Pants, put out a sample-based mixtape featuring American rapper Talib Kweli, and has collaborated with everyone from Wu-Tang's RZA to Cool Keith, Ghostface Killa, and Method Man.

Um, but yes, it's obviously just, uh, as I'm sure people know, Busta Rhymes has basically just a bunch of Dilla Beats in a vault and, uh, just chose to, I guess, make an album out of them for, for, for, you know, just because.
