Svani Broke Away from the Traditional Way of Learning Music

Svani studied audio engineering at The Art Institute of Austin but left before finishing the degree, preferring hands-on learning over traditional schooling. He felt it wasn't the right fit for him. He added:

"That's kind of why [the] school didn't work out for me either like I just have a problem with, I guess, like being told what to do."
