I can't just sit down and make a song in a day. It's only possible if you focus on the music and not the sound.

More quotes by Zedd
For the longest time, I wanted to become a pianist. That was kinda my thing.
Zedd
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
A man who trusts in luck better have plenty of it.
Zedd
Music is its own language - if you don't speak it, it's hard to say what you're trying to do.
Zedd
Whenever I'm in the U.K., people say I have an American accent. Which is, obviously, funny.
Zedd
The problem with my eyes is that they have been famished, but now they are feasting.
Zedd
There can be powerful magic in acts of desperation.
Zedd
I used to be a drummer in a band, and I really loved playing the drums, so I look forward to the right opportunity to do that at some point. Maybe even on TV. Every single live performance I'm doing on TV, I want it to be different and unique.
Zedd
I've been making music for a long time, since I was very young, but at the same time, I'm still exploring what works for me. I feel like I'm just starting out.
Zedd
I fear no secret of a person I trust, and he has no need to fear mine. It is part of being friends.
Zedd
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
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
I don't want to put 12 singles on an album. I want to make a story, a little movie.
Zedd
There is magic in patience, you know.
Zedd
I really like working with unique and unknown artists, as they usually bring something fresh to a song.
Zedd
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
There is no such thing as pure good or pure evil, least of all in people.
Zedd
What I look for in a voice is for it to be unique. I don't really care if a singer sings well. Really, it's about emotion, or being able to sing the lyrics and actually mean it. A lot of singers sing good notes but forget about what words they use.
Zedd
I'm my own artist, and I see artists as movies. No one should try to change them for anything. If you don't like it, you just don't follow it. And if you don't like a movie you don't watch it. Watch another movie.
Zedd
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 its way to it.
