By P. F Wilson Wed., Oct. 26
If you’re a fan of Minnesota native Adam Young’s Owl City, you’re likely a fan of Toronto’s LIGHTS. The two artists have been good friends for several years now. Over the summer she appeared in his video for the song “Deer in the Headlights,” which portrayed the sometimes reclusive Young in a different vein. To be in the shoot,...

Owl City Galaxy: Fan Question Posted!
Q: When and where did you first see a spark of being famous?
Adam: Truthfully, I never saw it coming. I worked in a warehouse, I went to school for nothing, I drove around at night thinking about the girl I had a crush on (and the one I still can't get over) -- I was nobody then, and I'm nobody now. Music allows me to be something important but it's not who I am, it's what I do. I am not famous, or rather, I don't really want to be famous in the way American media defines a "celebrity" as someone so untouchable that you can't even "earn" his or her attention -- as if that would be moral by anyone's standards. I just want to make music. I just want to be myself.

Fan Question Posted: Owl City Galaxy
Q: What do you use to make your music? Which programs, especially for your voice? A: I used Reason exclusively for Ocean Eyes but I’ve been working a lot more in Logic and Pro Tools recently, Logic for production/sequencing and Pro Tools for mixing. I like both environments a lot but both have pros and cons. I like Melodyne for vocals.

Sorry for the random crease there haha!
And I don’t know if this can be used for separate pictures but, if you want to, please let me know :)
And in case you can’t read the green box because it looks a bit tricky to read: “It’s important to me that girls I date like animals as it shows that they have a heart and they’re a sweet, caring person. If I had a girlfriend who...

“At the time this started to catch fire, I hadn’t really done...

Riveting
On October 10th, 2011 by Adam Young
Last June Mat Kearney handed me a small box someone had given him to give to me.
Inside was a large metal rivet.
My favorite place in the whole world is Canal Park in Duluth, Minnesota, and possibly my favorite thing in the whole world is the Duluth Aerial Lift Bridge perched on the harbor. The view of Sydney Harbor from inside the dentist’s office...

Q: Do you still skateboard? A: Yes, but not on days when I have to record guitar or piano tracks in the studio. 90 percent of my biggest pet peeves revolve around broken fingers.
