I usually write my music on a piano, and I really enjoy performing that way, because that actually shows how the music was in my mind before it actually became an electronic song. Zedd electronicenjoymind Change image and share on social
A DJ can't just play one song. It's about playing a set, or how you connect songs in those two hours, and where you place them. Zedd connecthourplace Change image and share on social
What I don't like to hear in music is something has not been thought through: that a sound is just there randomly. I want to make sure that every single little noise that's in my song is there because it's supposed to be there. Zedd hearmakemusic share on social
If you're convinced as an artist of what you're doing, the only move is to, no matter what people say or what management says or your best friends say or people on Facebook, do what you do, and people will find their way to it. Zedd artistconvincefacebook share on social
Although my music is electronic, it has a lot of influences from my past, which is all sorts of genres; I've been in a rock-metal band for a long time, and I still feel like, personally, I have a lot of influence from that. My classical influence, you can find spots here and there. Zedd bandclassicalelectronic share on social

I never feel like I need to make a song that sells 5 million copies; that's not the point of why I make music. It's great if that happens, like it did with 'Clarity,' but my goal is to always make a better track than the last one. Zedd claritycopyfeel share on social
