San Holo (Sander van Dijck) sits down with Adam Metwally to unpack the real cost of being “the light of the party” while still feeling like an outcast. He opens up about why sadness can be beautiful, how perfectionism nearly broke him (including a breakdown over kick drums before a major show), and the split between loving music and surviving the music industry. They dive into why formulas kill art, how major labels push artists to repeat the same hit, what it took to buy his way out to stay authentic, and why connection, not fame, is what keeps a career alive.
