Avicii Quotes & Sayings (Page 4)

“I've always had a fascination with making your own music but never have been skilled enough to play the instrument, so to be able to make music without the ability was awesome.”

“I always just sit down at the piano and make the main hook - what I want the track to be about melodically - and then I'll build everything else around that. But growing up, I did not play any instruments.”

“I've always been a producer - that's how I see myself first. The DJing came second as a way for me to be able to perform.”

“My dad has always been a big Ray Charles fan, and I've grown up listening to all kinds of music.”
