I was like, dude, we can do whatever you want to do.

Most of the EDM tracks right now are not very musical, they have one note that keeps playing.

I love sports, but I don't like live sporting events, because I don't like sitting in the crowd. I like listening to records, but I don't like going to concerts, because I don't like standing in the crowd. I guess I just don't like being in the crowd itself.
