“I always take care to have interesting chord progressions, because you...” — Zedd Quote

I always take care to have interesting chord progressions, because you can have the best sound design in the club, and you'll kill it in the club, but in five years, kids will have better sound design. But if your music is good, you'll always be able to listen to it, even in 20 or 50 years.

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.

I would never say I will stay in electronic music for the rest of my life. I will always do whatever I feel like at that moment.

I will not promote other people's songs big time. I will just mention that I produced the song to get the credit I think I deserve.

The first thing that inspires any song is a chord progression. When I have one I really like, I get into the lyrics even more.

Over the years I have become convinced that we learn best - and change - from hearing stories that strike a chord within us.

Whichever chord progressions move me, whether it's rock, jazz, doo-wop or soul, I'm going to put it together and not be worried about whether people can put it in a lane or not.

I love to work with producers who are very good with their chord progressions.

Being on the stage is the one place I don't get nervous. Before the show is another story, but once I'm up there, and the first chord hits, I go to this other place. It's like a dream land.
