“To me, I’m always trying to look for the energy, to imagine in being played on the dance floor. I guess that’s the most important thing in making music for me.”

People in Sweden are very conscious of what people are saying about you.

I can’t tell where the journey will end But I know where to start.

I make sure to use both Twitter and Facebook a lot which helps me connect to the fans.

House music originated in America, and it has always been around, but I guess it just got a tighter hold on Europe and other parts of the world.

If I wanted to make a quick buck, there’s far easier ways of doing it. What I want is to provoke people. If you want a hit song, all you need to do is rewrite an old song. It might have been proven to work, but you won’t be remembered the same way.

I travel with a bunch of battery packs because I don’t always have time to charge my phone at the hotel room when I’m traveling. I always change them, so I never run out of battery.

I have always been mainstream. It’s so weird, because I don’t see it as something negative at all. So many people see it as something negative.

I always just sit down at the piano and make the main hook—what I want the track to be about melodically—and then I’ll build everything else around that. But growing up, I did not play any instruments.

I actually only started listening to house music around the time I started making it. I got hooked both to making music and to house music.

I’ve always had a fascination with making your own music but never have been skilled enough to play the instrument, so to be able to make music without the ability was awesome.

It’s hard – some people get inspired by a feeling, but I’m mostly inspired by melodies.

I have a hard time writing music when I’m on tour.

Life’s a game made for everyone, and love is the prize.

There’s always haters, no matter what you’re doing – whether they’re complaining that everything you do sounds the same, or it’s too different.

I think I am a pretty good judge of character in general and try to surround myself with the best people I can.

I tried carrying the weight of the world. But I only have two hands.

A lot of us have energy that we can tap into. We sell ourselves short.

Some people reckoned that I looked healthier when I was bigger but I had terrible skin and no energy.

I’ve been fighting my whole career to show a different side and prove naysayers – not prove them wrong, because I don’t think you should get your energy from negative people.

I don’t have a strict diet; I keep it simple. I try to eat fish, meat, veg and carbs – potatoes and rice – but I’ll try and pack it in because as I’m burning so much energy. I have to see food as an energy source.

We’re all going to be tested. The dark energy is going to knock on all of our doors.

The energy you give off is the energy you receive. I really think that, so I’m always myself – JUMPING, dancing, singing around, trying to cheer everybody up.

Cheat meals can be a great tool to develop your physique. They can reset hormones responsible for metabolism and insulin regulation, replenish glycogen for increased energy, and keep calorie-burning mechanisms high.

I don’t watch cricket very much, but of course I enjoy whenever I see the sport, especially live, because of the energy in the stadium with the fans going crazy.
