The lead single “SOS,” released April 10, is another collaboration with Aloe Blacc and contains a textbook Avicii melody on the hook.īergling’s story is complex - far too complex to explain entirely in this piece.
Earlier this month, his team announced the project was close to completion at the time of his death, and has now been finished with the help of his fellow musicians. While it might not bring answers regarding Bergling’s death, the posthumous album Tim - set to drop in June - may bring fans some sense of musical closure. Questions still remain about the Apnight when Bergling died in Oman. “He just had this magical gift for hearing melody.” “Avicii was the best natural melody writer I have met in my life,” legendary producer Nile Rodgers said. Grammy winner Wyclef Jean said of the Swedish DJ’s musical acumen, “He’s doing this as Bach did what he did.” Steve Aoki said Avicii “wrote that term into existence” for a larger audience. There is a popular comical sentiment among fans of other genres that DJs “just press play.” When it came to Avicii, however, there was nothing but respect for his ability as a creator, and that respect remains today. There is sometimes a divide between “traditional” music and electronic music. We can learn a lot about him from how much other artists respect him. He was more a composer than a performer, more obsessed with the craft of making perfect music than being on stage to play it. On the subject of touring, Bergling said in the film, “It will kill me.” You could say he was a tortured artist, but the emphasis should be placed on “artist,” for that was who Bergling was. The signs of someone who needed help were certainly there. Knowing that he died after it was released makes the film eerie foreshadowing.
The 2017 documentary Avicii: True Stories gave us a glimpse into the life of an overwhelmed young man. With all the huge popularity and sold-out arenas, casual fans - like myself - thought Avicii was likely living his best life, but success doesn’t always breed happiness. He earned a Grammy nomination with David Guetta for “Sunshine,” made a country crossover that rivals “Old Town Road” with “Hey Brother” and dished out an assist to Coldplay when he helped them deliver “Hymn for the Weekend.” The mega-hit “Wake Me Up” with Aloe Blacc was a No. While “Levels” might have been the kicking-down-the-door that introduced us to him, it was far from his only hit.Įven if you’re like me and not much of an EDM fan, you’ll be surprised at how many of Avicii’s songs you know and love. But to remember Tim Bergling just by that song would be to undersell him. One year ago, when I heard that Avicii died, my mind went to that moment of joy that “Levels” brought me. I was in my cousin’s basement, and he put on “Levels.” The sharp, intoxicating melody - combined with the Etta James sample - hit me like a wave of musical excellence. I’ll never forget my first time hearing Avicii.
