Released 11 Years Ago: Avicii – Fade Into Darkness

Previously knows as the instrumental ‘Penguin’, Avicii incorporated elements from ‘Perpetuum Mobile’ by Penguin Cafe Orchestra to create the melodic masterpiece ‘Fade Into Darkness’. Featuring the stunning vocals of Andreas Moe, this single was a huge hit worldwide gaining over 60 million online streams since its release along with a pop version from Leona Lewis titled ‘Collide’.

Tim Bergling’s death on April 20, 2018, was a shockwave, the global mourning an equal and opposite reaction to the Swedish producer’s intensely uplifting music and the reach it had during his comet streak of a career. As Avicii, Tim Bergling brought a pop sensibility to the electronic scene and helped redefine the global EDM phenomenon. His biggest tracks –‘Levels’, ‘Wake Me Up’, ‘Hey Brother’ – were pristinely produced anthems of collective catharsis.
