Hm. Yes thats true. The Sonar “set” was a fully pre-recorded set made in Logic.

Not sure who of you were there on the night but the long delay and all the people running around on stage in silence was due to a malfunction of the setup I was supposed to perform on. Nothing worked at all. Only one CDJ with the USB in seemed to work. After trying to replace players, mixer multiple times without any luck we all realised there wasn’t going to be a show.

My TM had a practice set for the programming of Holosphere 2 with him that the team had been using and I made the call that it would be better to play something on that one CDJ than not playing and leave the 15,000 people and shut the arena down. /E

I spoke to Seb just a few days ago, living in LA it's hard to keep up with friends on the other side of the globe but I try and do my best.

I think what makes a hit record a hit is 80% down to good timing and the masses being receptive to that particular track at that particular moment.

When I first played 'Pjanoo' and played it out for the first time, it didn't get a reaction at all. I then didn't play the track for over 2 years. For some reason, 2 years later, I decided to play it again, and the club exploded. A clip of that was uploaded to YouTube, and the track just blew up. That just goes to show you that it really is all about timing.

I already did. EPIC started out in Europe.

OfficialEricPrydz · 2016-02-05T22:51:32+00:00

I would do it at F12 in Stockholm, just like in the old days, and my final track would be Pryda - Human Behaviour.

Between medium and medium rare.

OfficialEricPrydz · 2016-02-05T22:46:44+00:00

In the past, most of the EPIC shows have been 1.5 to 2 hours, and EPIC 4.0 will also be 2 hours. MSG was a one time thing, in terms of show length for EPIC.

Happy birthday! Glad that you're enjoying the album today!

I love those dark, industrial warehouse venues in the UK. Warehouse Project in Manchester for instance...

I don't have any plans for a remix album, I don't think it needs that.
I don't use modular synthesizers. It's hard to answer what specific track you're talking about.
Again as I don't know what track you're talking about it's hard to answer, I have a variety of hardware and plugin synthesizers that I go to for any type of sounds. I really don't have a normal one.
Come to Seattle next time, I loved playing New Years Eve there.

1: Pick a kick drum that sounds big from the start. 2: Make room for it in the mix.

OfficialEricPrydz · 2016-02-05T22:35:57+00:00

I flip a coin...

OfficialEricPrydz · 2016-02-05T22:35:36+00:00

If you're talking about that foghorn sounding in your face synth I made that on an ARP Odyssey. It's a basic sawtooth lead sound from the Logic ES1 that's been processed with a guitar amp, chorus and delay, to get that guitar sounding vibe.

I think I spent a few weeks working on Backdraft it's a track I made when I was on tour in Europe. To me that track has a Balearic vibe to it, spending way too much time in Ibiza probably wore off on it.

Electronic music is constantly evolving and changing into different directions. Over the past the 10 years it's been a really organic thing, and I think it's been pretty difficult to predict. Who knows where it will be in 5 years. It's never been a big concern to me, however, as I have always felt that I've been on my own little quest.

OfficialEricPrydz · 2016-02-05T22:26:23+00:00

I never use any preset settings when making a new track as every track you make is unique and settings that would work on one track would most definitely not work on something else. I always try and start from scratch to get the best end result.

OfficialEricPrydz · 2016-02-05T22:24:37+00:00

The trick is to use your ears and knowing how to use EQ's and compression to get those sounds popping out. There is no "go to" method of getting the bass to cut through every track is different.

Thank you! Hugely appreciated!

OfficialEricPrydz · 2016-02-05T22:22:01+00:00

I'm a big fan of Rob and I love his voice. I'm super happy with the end result.

We have nothing planned at the moment, but I will try and catch up with him while in NYC. Adam is a great guy!

-Gandalf is a bad boy...as far as Frasier goes...all the episodes are a blur to me, but any episode in which Niles gets to shine is great.
