00:00
Oh, come on in. What's up? I know. I feel like it's football.
00:05
We'll squeeze in. It's a tight carpet tonight, huh?
00:07
Yeah, come on in. Come on in. Come on in.
00:09
Come on in. Come on in.
00:10
Oh, you've got the Van Cleef on. You know, your fashion.
00:12
I like that. That's fire.
00:13
Jeez, thanks. I borrowed it.
00:17
Oh, I know. I've thought about, like, on the Uber drive over.
00:20
I was like, one speed bump. I'm gone. I'm gone. It's over for us.
00:23
So these guys, no strangers to Vegas. Loud Luxury.
00:26
How's it feel to be at the AMAs?
00:27
This is our first AMAs. It's really cool.
00:29
We're super excited. And Jennifer Lopez. Let's go.
00:32
And, you know, just casually.
00:33
Yeah, casual.
00:34
We've been to a few Canadian Music Awards before,
00:36
but this is, like, the World Series. This is the Super Bowl for us.
00:39
So we're very honored. We're very excited.
00:41
Like you said, J-Lo. That's what we're here for.
00:44
And, I mean, when you guys play so many shows, like, what gets you excited?
00:47
You guys have played the biggest festivals and nightclubs and stuff.
00:49
What gets you excited in the industry?
00:51
It's always the crowd. Like, we'll go and play festivals,
00:53
and you can be so tired. Like, we're running on, like, two hours of sleep
00:56
coming, like, across the continent, and then we'll pull up,
00:58
and there's, like, 30,000 people there, and they're all going crazy.
01:01
So it's, like, really an adrenaline rush every time you go on.
01:04
Yeah. No.
01:07
Sorry, I just had to ask you about EDC.
01:09
Yeah.
01:10
Yes, yes. So how was it this year compared to years in the past?
01:13
It was a very different vibe in the best way.
01:15
Because every time we've done EDC, we've played the same stage every time,
01:18
which is Kinetic Field.
01:19
It's the big one where they do the big art superstructure.
01:22
And this time...
01:23
We did Cosmic Metal this time.
01:24
Yeah. That was cool.
01:25
Which is sort of another main stage, but it's right by the bleachers,
01:28
and we played a lot later than we usually do.
01:31
So what was really exciting is there wasn't the same pressure of, like,
01:34
you need everyone jumping up and down at all times, otherwise you kind of suck.
01:37
We had them jumping up and down.
01:38
Yeah.
01:39
Like he said, he goes, but we didn't have them.
01:41
We didn't have them.
01:42
Just to verify.
01:43
It was cool. It's the first thing you see when you walk in the festival,
01:45
so it's a really cool vibe because you catch people as you're coming in
01:48
or leaving or whatever, so it was really special.
01:50
Yeah. Creatively, we just got to go a little bit more house-y,
01:53
a little bit more of a vibe versus just energy at all times, and we loved that.
01:58
And the reception to our set's been amazing so far.
02:00
We put it online.
02:01
We're very happy that everyone's receiving it.
02:02
Check it out. It's on YouTube.
02:03
Yeah.
02:04
Incredible.
02:05
Amazing. And then I feel like being DJs and creating music,
02:07
you have to have your finger on the pulse.
02:09
Yeah.
02:10
What's the song of the summer right now? Like what has been hitting?
02:12
I feel like that Notion song that-
02:14
The days.
02:15
Yeah.
02:16
The days everybody's been playing that.
02:17
That one blew up out of nowhere.
02:18
Yeah.
02:19
On the pop side, love it or hate it, I'm going to say this as a Canadian,
02:23
Nokia goes off every time.
02:25
We have an edit.
02:26
We have an edit that we play in our shows.
02:28
Everyone loves to hear it.
02:29
You know, I think it's just nice to hear Drake do a more fun song
02:32
that's less serious.
02:33
Yeah.
02:34
And you can tell that people have been wanting that as well.
02:36
Cause every time we played the entire front row,
02:38
just starts pulling out their fake phones.
02:39
Yeah.
02:40
Yeah.
02:41
Like it just, it's a, it's a very special moment.
02:43
Well, that's amazing.
02:44
And thank you guys so much for hanging out.
02:45
It's always good energy.
02:46
Thank you for having me.
02:47
Appreciate you guys chatting with Billboard.
02:48
We love more than Billboard.
02:49

02:50

02:51

02:53

02:54

02:56
