When I'm at a show, I'm there to have fun. Let's just not care for a moment. So this cake in your face is to make you lose your mind. And it's not about caring about whatever you are wearing and caring what other people are thinking about you. Out of the context, I'm trying to develop something else.
There's a big gaping hole in the EDM space for songwriting. It's one thing to learn how to be a great sound designer and become big just on sound design. Especially if you're in the dubstep category, it's like, how much fatter and more interesting can you make those drops.
I'm 36, but I still feel like a punk kid with $200 in my savings account.
When people come to Vegas, they expect a show that's over the top.
When I first started, I lived in Vegas because I was fighting in the UFC, and I was still fighting after the UFC.
But Vegas is really my first home.
I get to see great places like Vegas - there's a lot to take in, isn't there? - and to have big names tell you that you're great, it's amazing.
I really didn't have a big relationship with Vegas until I was in my 20s, and now I probably come out four or five times a year. I love it.
I love working with producers, like doing the record with Laidback Luke on 'Turbulence' and working with Afrojack on 'No Beef.'
