He loves sarcasm because it’s funny. He’s more of a loner than a social butterfly but he’s working on it. Sarantos prides himself on not releasing robotic music. Playing live, the music is authentic and real. It has imperfections because it is human. He is always trying to sound different musically, lyrically and vocally. He doesn’t want fans or critics to get bored with his efforts or sound. Despite momentum, Sarantos still has not turned a profit since he gives away all songs, videos and books for free.
