Zedd owes one of his biggest successes due to ‘slowing down’.  After a very busy 2016, Zedd made the decision to slow down and take a few months off.  Zedd tells Billboard, “When I came back, ‘Stay’ was the first song I made.  I felt refreshed and you can hear it.”

Zedd also says, “I didn’t want people to talk about song parts as much anymore, because with electronic dance music, people tend to skip to the drop.  If they like the drop, they love the song. If they don’t like the drop, then the song sucks. I just want it to be a song where each part is equally important.”

And in regards to Alessia, Zedd says,  “I knew it was big when I was listening back to a very early version of the song on my couch.  When the chorus hit, I had goosebumps. That natural reaction tells me I’m most likely not the only person in the world who will get excited.  Timing can ruin a song, you just never know.  Sometimes the radio only wants a certain amount of electronic songs and they give that spot to somebody else. But with ‘Stay’, everything came together.”

While Zedd will play select festivals this summer, he’s focusing mainly on his 2017 residency with the Hakkasan Group in Las Vegas.  Zedd will make regular appearances at the OMNIA Nightclub inside Caesars Palace, which also includes Calvin Harris, Tiesto and many more.

“I don’t think Vegas has changed much for me or Calvin Harris, for example, I think it might’ve changed for acts that were on the verge [of blowing up] or didn’t have a history with radio songs or TV.  I think there’s an audience in Vegas that is much more likely to want music they’re familiar with.  Generally speaking, I don’t think it’s quite the crowd for new songs or new remixes.” – Zedd on his vegas residency.
