RIP Avicii: Farewell to a legend
Farewell to a legend
Avicii the musical genius has moved on and we hope he may rest in peace. Yes, this is true, Tim Bergling aka "Avicii" has passed away last night and was found dead in Oman. He has been such an inspiration to us all and for most, the reason they discovered electronic music. His most famous track, "Levels," will live on to be one of the most played songs for a long time to come.
We still recall the first time we heard this track in 2011 in January at Tiesto's club life residency at the Hard Rock hotel in Las Vegas. Tiesto said "this is a new track from my friend Avicii" and everyone knew the future superstar was destined for greatness with that track. There are so many amazing songs that he would release along the way in his short but successful career, we are listening to all of them here in the office today. We want to extend our heartfelt condolences to everybody who was touched in any by Avicii's music, shows, or wonderful personality. Lastly, we want to express our deepest gratitude to Avicii and his entire team for being a pioneer, and changing the way the world viewed dance music. Rest in Peace, Avicii.
