French DJ David Guetta says he wants his music to be "timeless" and appeal to all generations.
The 49-year-old DJ believes he can create such music by using the same underlying emotions, reported Contactmusic.
"I'm trying to do something timeless. People always want to listen to something new, but at the same time emotions are always the same. There's not a new emotion that is going to come out, because we are human beings," Guetta says.
He says he wanted to be a DJ since he was 12-years-old, which he feels was crazy as there were no famous DJs around during that time.
"There was no glamour, there was no money, there was nothing like that. I was just obsessed with music and I was very into the technical aspect of creating it. I don't even understand it myself because my family were not musicians or anything ...
"My mum thought that everything I was doing was very stupid. She was a communist so she felt like all this is superficial and chasing materialistic dreams were a waste of my time," he says.
