Basically what he says is that "Moves" started as a joke. He generally doesn't like funky guitars. So he sent it to Benny Blanco who got it cut with Maroon 5. He also talks about what artists he's gonna work with next year (at that time P!nk, Xtina, Maroon 5). Also the interviewer asks what swedish artist he would like to work with, to which he answers Joakim Thåström (famous swedish punk-singer).

We talked it here (http://www.swedishsongs.de/smf/index.php?topic=3414.msg44711#msg44711), use search field first. There was a deep and long conversation.

Shellback's interviews are not very insightful, you know.

Basically he's received a lot of awards and he is asked what awards means the most.. he likes especially the "International Success of the year" -one..

He says he's most proud of Can't Stop The Feeling because it sounds more oldschool compared to most other tracks nowadays.. however it was struggle to make it sound modern too..

He likes how anything goes in music right now compared to 10 years ago.. its more limitless while keeping it natural.. he doesn't know where music will take him next..

He talks about being mostly inspired by stuff he listened back during high-school like the old Radiohead and music from the mid 90's ..

Working with Max is great because you never know what will happen.. but he talks about more being right now focused with the "tracks" and "beats" and Max will do more of the overall tweaks.. but it depends and that's the beauty of it..

At one point he felt everything was too much and he felt bad in his head & body and he had second thoughts about making a career in music.. but he got support from Max and others closest to him and took it slow..

He's very selective compared to other songwriters and doesn't make many tracks at once but only a selective few he's most passionate about and tweaks them..



Hope this helps!

Does he refers to when he was learning from Max, right? He felt that way having the best mentor in the game, what leaves that for the rest lol. It helps a lot, thank you very much!!

No this is much more recent. Just a year or two ago, when he "disappeared". He woke up one day not able to move from the bed.

Summer-2014 was three years ago. Time flies.
