YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Before regularly scoring six-figure nightly fees spinning thumpy electronic tunes, Zedd got his start playing classical music at age 4. He learned how to plan performances with meticulous detail, an ability that's obvious in his carefully choreographed shows today, which feature less of the freewheeling song selection used by most popular DJs. "I see myself as an artist who presents a show," says Zedd, who earned $19 million this year and $85 million over the past five.
