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

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

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.

Originality is definitely missing from EDM. There are people looking for it and exploring but I feel it's so big now it is just getting milked. House music is losing all its melody as it becomes more about how dirty the drop is and how energetic it is. It loses touch with what music really is.

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.

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.
