Speaking about their whirlwind romance, Felber, who performs under the name Attawalpa, told The New York Times, "I think when you know, you know."

"I've only been alive for 35 years in this lifetime, and I think it's another archaic thing for guys to hide their feelings. I'm way more into the flow of getting to know the person. And I think Lena's the same," he continued. "And I think — I'm going to sound cheesy — but when you find your soulmate, you just know."
