Avicii | A LIFE LONG REGRET

In True Stories, Wyclef Jean—who recorded his track “Divine Sorrow” with Bergling in 2013—says he’d met only one other person like Bergling, for whom “the orchestra lives in his head. His neuro fully understands every dot and how everything should go, so it’s like an inside symphony.” That other person was Michael Jackson. The challenge for Bergling and his collaborators was transcribing what he was hearing into music that sounded exactly like it did between his ears.

   Music comes naturally to me and to most of us I suppose. Nothing compares to the right gig at the right time. Ever since I was 4 or 5 electronic music seemed to  get me on the dance floor. At that time this genre started to get more and more mainstream on Romanian soil. You'd hear Dj Project, Akcent, Morandi and other so-called pioneers of this industry.         
   Little did I know that there is a fine line between pop and electronic and the first real encounters I had with the EDM scene were in 2013. Some of the names that come to mind are Madeon, Zedd, Swedish House Mafia and of course the man in question, Tim Bergling (Avicii)
   I'm not gonna write about his career or personal life because it's already everywhere in the media. Check out this documentary if you want to get to know who he was Avicii: True Stories.
   I'm writing this at 5 AM because I think he was one of those geniuses appreciated only by the ones who taste a particular sense of art. To put it briefly, I think he is an enormous figure in all music production, but gets the recognition of a relatively small part of the music consumers. I don't necessarily think it's unfair, I just love his music and another article on the internet about it it's a mere tribute to Tim's legacy. 

My life long regret will be not attending any of his gigs.
