David, 54 said “I think it is part of human nature to take things for granted after a while.

“I think people were taking life they way it was for granted. After Covid, parties are now actually insane. It’s a whole different thing, when we get on stage it is a madhouse.

“I think the next few years will be the best years for dance music in history.”

The famous music maker clarified to Evening Standard that a portion of his greatest hits have been delivered in the midst of worldwide agitation and trusts that the public like to look for idealism thanks to move music.

The ‘When Love Takes Over’ hitmaker explained: “I have a dream of making a record with Adele. It is technical but the kind of chords that she loves are exactly the same type of chords I love.”
