https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AviciiTim Bergling better known by his stage name Avicii was a Swedish international DJ, remixer, record producer, musician, and songwriter who specialized in audio programming, remixing, and record producing.

Bergling began his career at age 16 posting his remixes in online forums of electronic music, which led him to sign his first record label deal.[3] He rose to prominence in 2011 with his breakthrough single "Levels". His debut studio album, True (2013), featured electronic music blended with elements of several music genres and received generally positive reviews from music critics. It peaked within the top ten in more than fifteen countries and topped the Australian, Swedish, Danish and US dance charts.[4][5][6][7] It was supported by the lead single "Wake Me Up", which topped most music markets in Europe and reached number four in the US. In 2015 he released his second studio album, Stories, and in 2017 he released an EP titled Avīci (01).[8] In 2016, he retired from touring due to health reasons.

His catalogue of music also included the singles "I Could Be the One" with Nicky Romero, "You Make Me", "X You", "Hey Brother", "Addicted to You", "The Days", "The Nights", "Waiting for Love", "Without You" and "Lonely Together". Bergling was nominated for Grammy Awards for his work on "Sunshine" with David Guetta in 2012[9] and his track "Levels" in 2013. Several music publications credit Bergling as among the DJs who ushered electronic music into top 40 radio in the early 2010s.[10][11]

Bergling died on April 20, 2018 in Muscat, Oman at the age of 28. Six days later, his family implied in an open letter that the manner of death was suicide following years of mental and physical health issues.
