Musician Mark Ronson who will turn 40 in September this year says he is not bothered about falling into the middle-aged bracket and doesn't believe his age will affect his music.

When asked if the 39-year-old concerned about turning 40 and having a mid-life crisis, he said: "No, no. I mean, I've just bought a convertible Porsche ... I feel OK about it (hitting mid-life). After 35, everything sounds old in music anyways, so it's fine."

However, the musician has already thought about his future and tries to create music that will still be successful in two decades time, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Ronson also says that he wants to "leave a legacy of great records and good music."

"To leave a legacy of great records and good music. I don't want anything much grander than that. I try to make music that you could imagine hearing in 20 years. There is no specific ingredient, but I have no problem saying I'm really influenced by and love soul music. Stuff like Motown probably filters into the things I do. But you want to make a record that sounds timeless," he told Australia's Marie Claire magazine.
