Signature

Tim Bergling[a] (8 September 1989 – 20 April 2018), known professionally as Avicii,[b] was a Swedish DJ, remixer, and record producer. His musical style is primarily house music, and he is an influence on many artists. Several music publications have credited Avicii as one of the DJs who took electronic music to Top 40 radio in the early 2010s. He is also considered one of the most popular and successful electronic dance music (EDM) genre artists of all time.

Avicii began posting remixes on electronic music forums at the age of 16, and in May 2007, the label Dejfitts Plays signed him. He rose to prominence in 2011 with his single "Levels". His debut studio album, True (2013), blends electronic music with elements of other genres; it received generally positive reviews, peaked in the top 10 in more than 15 countries and topped international charts. The lead single, "Wake Me Up", became a most-streamed song on Spotify. Both his album Stories (2015) and the extended play (EP) Avīci (01) (2017) reached number one on the Swedish Sverigetopplistan chart. His third and final album, Tim (2019), was released posthumously and reached number one on Billboard Top Dance Albums chart.

Avicii had health issues throughout his life. In 2012, he was hospitalised for 11 days in New York City with acute pancreatitis caused by excessive alcohol consumption. Between 2012 and 2014, to treat pain from the pancreatitis, Avicii was prescribed opioids such as OxyContin and Vicodin, to which he developed an addiction. In 2014, he underwent surgery to remove his appendix and gallbladder and entered a rehabilitation facility a year later. Due to these health issues, Avicii announced his retirement from touring in March 2016. In 2018, he died by suicide while holidaying in Muscat, Oman, at an estate owned by the Omani royal family.

Avicii's accolades included four MTV Europe Music Awards, two International Dance Music Awards, one American Music Award, and one Billboard Music Award. He was nominated for a Grammy for his work on "Sunshine" with David Guetta in 2012 and "Levels" in 2013.

Life and career

1989–2010: Early life and career

Tim Bergling was born in Stockholm, Sweden, on 8 September, 1989;[3] he was the son of Klas Bergling, who ran an office supply business, and actress Anki Lidén.[4] He had three siblings: David Bergling, Linda Sterner, and actor Anton Körberg. At age eight, Tim started mixing in his bedroom.[5]

Inspired by his brother, who was also a DJ, Bergling began making music at the age of 16;[6] he taught himself to use a pirated copy of FL Studio.[4] In May 2007, Bergling signed with the label Dejfitts Plays.[7] He was a member of the online forum Laidback Luke, where he refined his craft and, at times, demonstrated his distinctive deep house style. During this period, he remixed tracks by Little Boots, Robyn, and Dizzee Rascal.[8] Bergling adopted his moniker Avicii, a respelling of Avīci, which means "the lowest level of Buddhist hell", according to Bergling. He chose the moniker because his real name was already in use when he created his page on the social networking website Myspace.[9][10] In 2010, Avicii released the song "Seek Bromance", which reached the top 20 in several countries, including Belgium,[11] France,[12] the Netherlands,[13] the United Kingdom,[14] and Sweden.[15] In October 2010, he signed with the European A&R team at EMI Music Publishing.[16]

Artistry

Influences

Daft Punk (top) and Swedish House Mafia (bottom) were both influences on Avicii's music.

When he was asked, "Which musicians influenced Avicii?" on Quora, Avicii replied:

Initially when starting out, sound-wise it was mostly the Swedish house producers, mainly Eric Prydz and Axwell, but also Steve Angello and Seb Ingrosso. Nowadays for some, this is quite a different question. Id say the musicians that has influenced me the most in terms of lyrics, melody and arrangement has been: Earth wind and fire, Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Etta James, Coldplay, [Red Hot Chili Peppers], [System of a Down], Paul Simon, Michael Jackson, Smokey Robinson, Little Dragon, Of Monsters and Men, Mumford and Sons, The Beatles, Nile Rodgers – I could go on forever here (Guess I kind of already have :) – BUT my production, meaning the electronic music that is always there, sometimes more apparent and sometimes not as much, I still owe to Eric Prydz, [Swedish House Mafia] and Daft Punk.[127][206]

Musical style

Avicii's early work was deep house and progressive house, usually based on a four-chord structure, sub-bass, and a simple synth melody.[207] His debut studio album, True, blends musical genres, including folktronica.[208] While making the album, Avicii wanted to fuse electronic music with soul, funk, blues, folk, and country because he felt EDM had become too focused on "dirty drops".[209] Its first single, "Wake Me Up", is a folk music crossover, which, according to Katie Bain of The Observer, "tapped into the market potential of mixing EDM and country, a template many artists have since recreated".[210] A Variety editor commented Avicii's "distinct sound" consists of "soaring synths and keening melodies".[208] Ian Youngs of the BBC noted Avicii's biggest hits have elements in common: "insistent, escapist" house music production, guest vocals to "lend accessibility and depth", and "irresistible" melodies.[211] Musicians such as Kygo, Skrillex, Diplo, Gryffin, Martin Garrix, and Cheat Codes cited Avicii as a source of inspiration.[212]

Philanthropy

In 2011, after achieving widespread commercial success, Avicii began working with his manager and executive producer Arash Pournouri to start House for Hunger, a charity dedicated to alleviating global hunger.[213] The goal was to raise $1 million from ticket sales for a 25-date US tour that began in January. The goal was reached, and the funds were donated to Feeding America.[213] In early 2013, Avicii donated all proceeds from his "Avicii X You" project to House for Hunger.[213]

That same year, Avicii partnered with Macy's to sell a $20 "Play Button" pin, a wearable MP3 player with 1.8 GB of free storage and a playlist that included Avicii, Moby, Hardwell, and Nicky Romero. As part of this initiative, $60,000 was donated to the FEED Foundation.[213] In 2014, Avicii lent support to HIV/AIDS organisations. In November, he collaborated with Product Red to launch the "Ultimate Year of Music with Avicii". That same month, Wyclef Jean released the song "Divine Sorrow", featuring Avicii, with proceeds going to the Product Red Global Fund.[213] He also supported campaigns against human trafficking and gang violence when he directed the videos for his tracks "For a Better Day" and "Pure Grinding".[211]

Personal life

Avicii enjoyed playing World of Warcraft in his youth. He developed anxiety at a young age,[4][190] with his parents taking him to a therapist at the age of 14.[4]

Relationships

From 2011 to 2013, Avicii dated an American student named Emily Goldberg.[214] He then dated Racquel Bettencourt, a Canadian student and model with whom he lived in California; the couple separated in late 2014.[4] On the podcast Sofia with an F, Bettencourt said she and Avicii restarted their relationship in 2016, resulting in a pregnancy that was miscarried.[215] At the time of his death, he was dating the Czech model Tereza Kačerová; they had decided to keep their relationship private.[4]

Health

In January 2012, Avicii was hospitalised for 11 days in New York City with acute pancreatitis that was caused by excessive use of alcohol.[4][216] Between 2012 and 2014, Avicii was prescribed opioids for the pain caused by his pancreatitis, including OxyContin and Vicodin, to which he developed an addiction. In 2014, Avicii underwent surgery and had both his appendix and gallbladder removed. In 2015, Avicii entered a drug rehabilitation facility, announcing in March 2016 he would be retiring from touring.[4] In the 2017 documentary Avicii: True Stories, directed by his close and longtime collaborator Levan Tsikurishvili, Avicii spoke about his physical and mental health struggles. The documentary depicts the pressure from his management to continue performing live in spite of his objections.[217]

Following his retirement, Avicii took up Transcendental Meditation, which he credited with reducing his anxiety, and started seeing a therapist.[190]

High pressure from management and fans to continue touring and maintaining his public persona were cited as key reasons for his suicide, according to GQ. In a statement from the article, "Avicii feared upsetting fans. He was sensitive to the 'flood of hate mail' after cancelled gigs."[218]

Avicii's manager, Arash Pournouri, said he knew of Avicii's anxieties but refused to label them a problem of mental health. His management team became aware of Avicii's painkiller addiction in November 2014, and they staged two unsuccessful interventions for him. Pournouri rescheduled many shows to allow Avicii to recover in Stockholm. Having discovered his client's alcohol issues earlier, Pournouri set out to forbid promoters from offering Avicii alcohol, clearing out his minibar and focusing on his recovery. Issues worsened when there was no crew to "keep tabs" on Avicii during his recuperation.[218] Pournouri met with Avicii's father, Klas, in 2014 to share concerns about Avicii's health.[4]

Against Avicii's wishes, Pournouri claimed to have cancelled two more world tours, which would have earned up to approximately US$2.9 million in profits.[218]

Death

Tim Bergling's funeral service was held at Skogskyrkogården cemetery.

Avicii died on 20 April 2018 at the age of 28,[219][220] while on holiday in Muscat, Oman, at an estate owned by the Omani royal family.[221] Omani authorities carried out two autopsies[222] and announced on 21 April there was "no criminal suspicion" or evidence of foul play in Avicii's death.[223][224] A day before Avicii's death, a friend expressed concern about Bergling's mental state to his father, Klas.[4] On 26 April, Bergling's family released an open letter stating:[225][226]

Our beloved Tim was a seeker, a fragile artistic soul searching for answers to existential questions. An over-achieving perfectionist who travelled and worked hard at a pace that led to extreme stress. When he stopped touring, he wanted to find a balance in life to be able to be happy and to do what he loved most – music. He really struggled with thoughts about Meaning, Life, Happiness. He could now not go on any longer. He wanted to find peace. Tim was not made for the business machine he found himself in; he was a sensitive guy who loved his fans but shunned the spotlight. Tim, you will forever be loved and sadly missed. The person you were and your music will keep your memory alive. We love you, The Family.[225]

After the open letter was published, many publications and news outlets interpreted it as referring to suicide.[227][228] On 22 May, Avicii's family announced plans for a private funeral with "the people who were closest to him".[229] The funeral service was held on 8 June at Skogskyrkogården cemetery in Stockholm,[230][231] and his remains were buried at Hedvig Eleonora Church later that month.[232][233]

Tributes

From fellow musicians

The 2018 edition of Tomorrowland saw several tributes to Avicii from Axwell Λ Ingrosso, Don Diablo, Nicky Romero, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, and Zedd. All DJs honoured Avicii's memory by playing his music in their sets during the festival, which Michael Thivaios (Like Mike) described as Avicii's home. Thivaios continued calling Avicii "one of [his] best friends" and "a great inspiration".[242][243] Avicii's songs "Levels" and "Wake Me Up" came second and eighth, respectively, in Tomorrowland 2018's most-played songs.[244][245]

On 27 July, Russian DJ and producer Arty released a song called "Tim" as a tribute to Avicii, stating, "I made a track for my friend ... I just want to honor his memory. I want to do something right, and in my opinion it's the right thing to do."[246] During the 2018 version of Creamfields, Kaleidoscope Orchestra performed a special tribute consisting of Avicii's greatest dance hits.[247][248] On 12 October, Vicetone released a song called "South Beach", which they stated was influenced by Avicii's music, was one of the first songs they created, and that they decided to finish and release it as a tribute.[249]

In addition to the live tributes, many other artists—including Eric Prydz, Imagine Dragons, Skrillex, Calvin Harris, Hardwell, Deadmau5, Marshmello, Zedd, and Robbie Williams—also paid tribute to Avicii on the micro-blogging platform Twitter.[250] One year after his death, tributes on social media continued to be paid by Nicky Romero, DJ Snake, Nile Rodgers, the organisers of Tomorrowland, and others.[251][252] In 2019, Madonna paid tribute to Avicii in her song "Funana" from her album Madame X.[253] In April 2020, Aloe Blacc hosted a 24-hour, livestreamed tribute to Avicii on his YouTube channel; the tribute included concert footage, videos, DJ interviews, and fan duets.[254] In November 2021, Basshunter recorded the song "Life Speaks to Me" as a tribute to Avicii.[255]

A source described the service as "very moving" and "a great tribute to Bergling".[259][260]

The 2019 edition of the music festival Tomorrowland included a tribute in the decoration of the festival's main stage.[265]

In September 2019, it was announced a tribute concert would be held in Stockholm on 5 December that year in memory of Avicii. The concert saw David Guetta, Kygo, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Nicky Romero, and Laidback Luke headlining, along with vocalists with whom Avicii had worked, playing alongside a 30-piece orchestra, fulfilling one of Avicii's dreams for his music in a live setting. All profits went to the Tim Bergling Foundation.[266] Following the start of ticket sales, the concert sold out in 30 minutes.[267] The following month, Madame Tussauds in New York City revealed a wax figure of Avicii.[268]

On 19 May 2021, Stockholm's Ericsson Globe was renamed the Avicii Arena. To commemorate the new name, the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra recorded a performance of the Avicii song "For a Better Day", with vocals provided by 14-year-old Swedish singer Ella Tiritiello.[269][270]

Legacy

Music innovation

Many artists in the electronic dance music (EDM) genre have cited Avicii as an influence on their work, and many of these paid tribute to him after his death. Alan Walker and DubVision described him as an "icon" in EDM.[276] Norwegian DJ Kygo cited Avicii as "[his] biggest inspiration and the reason why [he] started making electronic music". Other artists, such as Diplo, Sebastian Ingrosso, Felix Jaehn, and Martin Garrix, the last of whom collaborated with Avicii on his 2015 single "Waiting for Love", have also cited him as a source of inspiration. The songs "Levels" and "Seek Bromance" were named as points of inspiration.[212]

On the day of Avicii's death, The Washington Post wrote an article calling him a pioneer artist who attempted to bridge the gap between country and electronic music, crediting his 2013 hits "Wake Me Up" and "Hey Brother" as examples of this movement.[277] Avicii is also credited for influencing other attempts at continuing this genre crossover, including songs such as Zedd's "The Middle" and Hailee Steinfeld's "Let Me Go".[278]

Writing the day after Avicii's death, Marcus Dowling of Mixmag described him as "arguably the artist most responsible for electronic music's mainstream pop crossover success", said his 2011 single "Levels" had "elevated electro into the pop cultural stratosphere" and that Avicii had become "a living legend".[279] Several publications credit Avicii as one of the DJs who took electronic music to Top 40 radio in the early 2010s.[280][281] He is also considered one of the most popular and most successful EDM artists of all time.[44]

Avicii influenced a number of mainstream artists outside electronic music. Nile Rodgers said, in terms of melody writing, Avicii was "maybe one of the best, if not the best I've ever worked with".[282] Mike Einziger of Incubus said, "Some of the work we did together is some of the music I'm most proud of in my whole life".[283] Dan Reynolds of Imagine Dragons said, "working with [Avicii] was one of my favorite collaborative moments".[284] Charlie Puth said Avicii was "The man who really opened my eyes as to what my productions could one day sound like".[284] Eric Clapton, who never publicly worked with Avicii, said he was "inspired by Avicii" and dedicated a song off his Christmas album, Happy Xmas, to him.[285]

On 21 November 2019, Billboard named Avicii's 2011 hit "Levels" one of the 100 songs that define the 2010s,[286] while his 2013 single "Wake Me Up" came 13th and was the highest-charting EDM song[287][288] on the Official Charts Company's chart of the decade.[289]

Mental health awareness

Main article: Tim Bergling Foundation

On 26 March 2019, Bergling's family launched the Tim Bergling Foundation, focusing on mental illness and suicide prevention.[290] The foundation works internationally and aims to educate people and businesses about suicide and mental health.[291] The foundation also works to mitigate climate change, manage business development, and conserve endangered species.[292] Since 2019, a number of music industry figures have cited Avicii's death as a reason for the increased awareness of mental health in the industry.[293][294][295]

Museum

Main article: Avicii Experience

On 9 June 2020, it was announced an Avicii Tribute Museum would open in Stockholm in mid-2021.[296] The renamed Avicii Experience was opened in February 2022 by Prince Carl Phillip and Princess Sofia, alongside Bergling's father, Klas, in Space Stockholm, a digital-culture centre near Sergels torg.[297][298][299] The museum features reconstructions of Bergling's childhood bedroom and Los Angeles mansion and offers recordings of Avicii's most popular works and unreleased music and the ability to remix them.[298]

The museum was the idea of Bergling's parents, who wanted to give fans a place to remember and celebrate the work of Avicii and learn about his music-creation process. The interactive museum also includes exhibitions depicting several stages in Avicii's life, including a simulation of the high-paced lifestyle he experienced before his retirement from touring in 2016. These exhibits are designed to give visitors an understanding of the health issues Avicii faced. Exhibitions are also dedicated to raising awareness of mental health problems in young people and the wider music industry.[300][301]
