Synopsis

The intimate biography of the iconic DJ who was lost too soon.

Like a firework against the night sky, the DJ and producer Tim Bergling exploded onto the music scene. A musical visionary who, through his sense for melodies, came to define the era when Swedish and European house music took over the world.

But Tim Bergling was also an introverted and fragile young man who was forced to grow up at an inhumanly fast pace. After a series of emergencies resulting in hospital stays, he stopped touring in the summer of 2016. Barely two years later, he took his own life.

Tim - The Biography of Avicii is written by the award-winning journalist Måns Mosesson, who was given unique access to Tim's own notes, as well as interviews with Tim's family, friends and colleagues in the music business. The book paints an honest picture of Tim and his search in life, not shying from the difficulties that he struggled with.

Författaren har tagit del av 70.000 sms, texter och mejl som skrivits av Tim Bergling och hans anhöriga. Resultatet blir en detaljerad berättelse om en bransch som inte tar hänsyn till den enskilda människan. Långsamt och tålmodigt porträtteras en stressad och olycklig person fram. Vi får följa en po......more

Właśnie skończyłam reread tej pozycji i nie wiem czy to wszystko bardziej uderzyło mnie przy pierwszym czytaniu, czy teraz... Dosłownie siedzę cała zapłakana i nie potrafię zebrać myśli. "Wszyscy słuchali Avicii'ego, nikt nie słuchał Tima. " Tim był niezwykle utalentowanym człowiekiem, świetnym kompo......more

Goodreads review by Michae on February 06, 2022

This book was one of my most anticipated books of this year. Besides a few artists outside the genre, I only listen to edm & have since middle school. Avicii was one of the first artists I found in the dance community & he quickly became a favorite of mine. I always dreamed of seeing him at Ultra Mu......more
