Musician Dev Hynes: "The best can be something you didn't think you could even do."

From Melena Ryzik's interview of producer/songwriter Dev Hynes in the NY Times:

Are you in a position to turn people down, as a producer?

Yeah, but I kind of hate doing it, because my whole thing is: I want to try everything in the world. So there’s not many people that I want to ever turn down, because I think: “Cool, yeah. So we make a bad song. That’s like the worst thing that can happen.” Which, in the scheme of bad things in the world, is not that bad. That’s why I make a lot of music and do a lot of different things. No one’s dying from bad collaborations. But the best that can happen is something that you didn’t think you could even do.
