    Tim was an AMAZING producer, an ASTOUNDING musician, and a true intellectual nomad. I am honored to have vivid memories of meeting him in the consessions line, and then later backstage at Ultra Miami 2013.
    One day, you'll leave this world behind, so Live a Life you will remember.
    RIP Avicii, the Father of House. September 8th, 1989- April 20th, 2018.

      You must be new to Vice. That’s okay. Vice will make longer elaborate videos that are like an hour long without “missing context”, then after awhile they take the video down and drop these shorter 5-10 minute videos that try to summarize the longer videos.
      They leave you wanting more, but it’s almost impossible to find the full videos. Vice is weird like that. It’s really the equivalent of intentionally tripping yourself.

    This video is poor quality vice.
    These so called "Experts" can't grasp who Avicii was and how impactful he has been on modern music.
    Avicii will be compared alongside Mozart, Vivaldi as some of the most influental composers in history. He needed an agent that it stead of pressuring him, should have pulled the brake on his touring and traveling. Someone should have taken the decision away from him. And convinced him to take a long break.

      @stormforce702 2 місяці тому +3

      If you ever have the time (or care), check out his documentary “True Stories”. It shows a better angle of how the peak of his career was also at the start of the opioid epidemic when doctors were prescribing painkillers like candy, and he simply fell victim to that as he was touring and in poor health, which landed him in and out of the hospital as he toured endlessly.
