Tim has been nominated for Best Dance Artist and Best Dance Album at the Billboard Music Awards.

These were meant to take place earlier in the year before covid postponed it, which is why he has been nominated well over a year after the album release.

Great news that the True bonus tracks are now streaming. Always On The Run is one of my favourites from the era <3

Nervo have confirmed their 10-year old Avicii collab "Enough is Enough" will be released finally this summer under the name "Don't Give Up on Us"!

I was only listening to some Avicii songs at the weekend, and its so hard to believe that someone so young and talented is no longer with us.

Nervo have confirmed their 10-year old Avicii collab "Enough is Enough" will be released finally this summer under the name "Don't Give Up on Us"!

omg! :heart:

 

for context, they’re now working on finishing the song, hopefully it won’t be a full on remix but just a little polish of the production. the original demo is available on YouTube.

 

 

Avicii and Nervo also worked together on Nervo’s song You’re Gonna Love Again.

 

They've also just released a Greatest Hits compilation on Spotify titled 'Live A Life You Will Remember'. Albeit quite a pointless one as it is only six tracks long.

So it’s that time again, Avicii day, where we remember a great name in Dance music;

What one Avicii song are you choosing to play today?

 

I’m going to listen to his last Top 40 hit Heaven, especially given that it was featured on Now 103 that I recently reviewed in the 2000’s forum.

4 years already, jeez :(

I still don't think I've ever been so shocked by a public figure's passing as I was by this. :(

A question I’d really love to hear Dan answer when he reads this… if Avicii was still alive today, what sort of sound would he be working on and would we have had another album by now? Who would he have collaborated with too? Becky Hill? RAYE? Ed Sheeran?

I cant believe its 4 years already, so sad and was such shocking news. Another young person gone far to soon. I think if he was alive today he would have definitely done a track with Becky Hill, maybe another track with Rita Ora, personally i would have loved him to have also done a track with Ed Sheeran. Mabel and Raye are 2 other potentials i would think he may have worked with aswell.

Can we not taint Avicii's legacy by hypothetically dragging him into the hellscape of the current commercial dance scene xx

 

(I joke)

 

((but also I kind of don't))

Impossible to say but I imagine he would've continued along the more mellow songwriter-focused tracks path that we heard on 'Tim'.

 

Perhaps he could've been a little bit inspired by melodic house given that genre's rise in prominence ever since his passing (would make way more sense than slap house or festival tech house to name two other styles that took off big in the last 4 years).

 

I certainly like to think he wouldn't have gone down the generic hit-chasing path anyhow like Guetta, though a Becky or Raye collab wouldn't have surprised me given the Rita collab. I don't think he'd have worked with Ed though.

Also this. Although no other public figure's passing could've been more shocking for me given how big a fan I was/am of his. Crazy that it's already been 4 years and I still remember it well seeing this news.

 

His discography is still unrivalled by any other.

4 years feels very quick, isn't it? If Avicii was still here, he would probably do a lot of things with other Swedish producers and musician: at least one producing collaboration with either Dimitri Vangelis & Wyman or Mike Perry; letting small artist like KAAZE to remix his single (before Sigala's "Melody" even existed); and probably making hits with Zara Larsson, Tove Lo, Dr. Alban, even ABBA.

Not sure if I've missed it in this thread, but where can I find his Kacey Musgraves collab?

Live version of Addicted to You from Ibiza in 2016 has been put up today

Yesterday marked 34 years since his birth. This week also marks the 10th anniversary of "True" (released 13/09/2013) which has aged incredibly well still.
