In this issue of Hit Parader, Grammy-winning producer Zedd reflects on Telos, his most introspective release to date, and his decision to step away from algorithm-driven expectations to create a record meant for deep listening rather than passive consumption. Made for himself first, Telos emerges as a statement of creative autonomy rooted in vulnerability, balance, and long-term intention, even as Zedd speaks candidly about the exhaustion that followed its completion. Expanding beyond traditional EDM frameworks, he discusses his growing interest in visual storytelling, film and game scoring, and genre-blurring work influenced by Radiohead and Silverchair, capturing an artist recalibrating his vision while shaping the next phase of his career.
