Lights is heading out on tour with deadmau5 and we can’t think of a better support act to accompany him. In a recent interview, she opened up about the upcoming cube v3 tour, her remix set, the digital age of music and her dream collaborator.
Here’s what the Canadian singer-songwriter had to say about her remix set:
“My friend Myth and I built entirely new versions of a handful of my songs plus wicked instrumentals, a mixture of glitchy tropical and future bass style. I’ll be doing live vocals and playing guitar as well, should be pretty epic.”
And more on her NYE show:
“For my set, people can expect 30 minutes of bangers, instrumentals and wicked visuals with some live elements.”
On her music and songwriting:
“I am inspired by hearing good melodies and lyrics that flow and don’t feel like they try too hard. Mostly though I am inspired by interesting production ideas if I hear a bass sound or synth sound or guitar tone that just sits so right I go home and try to replicate it.”
About being an artist in the digital age:
“I do think now more than ever there is cross-over in every genre and we are seeing live instruments at EDM shows and electronic elements in rock shows. It’s a good time to be an artist of any kind of that reason, there are really no rules.”
As for her dream collaborator:
“I am still waiting for REZZ to send me a track.”
In addition, Lights defined the word success as “making a living making art.”
