“I'm an engineer at heart and I love anything to do with sound. That's just how I work. I love sound systems. The other part of it is always [that I’m] fascinated with space. I'm on the board of METI, which actually listens to sounds and we send signals out to space. I've actually sent music out space to.”

Spaces and Places is inspired by Chandler’s love for space as well as how he recorded the album: in different clubs around the world. Here, Chandler shares with Forbes the inspiration behind the album, a song he sent to space, his first job growing up and more.
