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.
AVICIII 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.
AVICIII tried carrying the weight of the world. But I only have two hands.
AVICIIWhen it comes to electronic music, I started listening to a lot of Daft Punk, way before I knew what house music was, and then progressed into a lot of Steve Angello, Eric Prydz, Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso, and Laidback Luke.
AVICIII’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.
AVICIII’m good at melody – I’ll write the top-line melody and ideal words I want to go with it. But I’m not that good at writing lyrics. I bounce those back and forth with songwriters or someone who can sing.
AVICIIWhen I started working on electronic music, that was after the rave period. I haven’t even seen that part of it that much.
AVICIIThere’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.
AVICIIDance music is like a virus, it has affected so many different genres.
AVICIIHouse 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.
AVICIIIf 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.
AVICIITo 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.
AVICIII 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.
AVICIIAll this time I was finding myself and I didn’t know I was lost.
AVICIILife’s a game made for everyone, and love is the prize.
AVICIII can’t tell where the journey will end But I know where to start.
AVICIII 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.
