"TIM," the third and final studio album by the legendary Swedish DJ and producer Avicii, is a testament to his enduring legacy in the world of electronic dance music. Released posthumously on June 6, 2019, this 38-minute masterpiece is a collaborative effort that brings together some of the industry's most talented artists. Featuring collaborations with the likes of Aloe Blacc, Imagine Dragons, and Chris Martin of Coldplay, "TIM" is a vibrant collection of 12 tracks that showcase Avicii's signature sound while exploring new sonic territories.
The album opens with "Peace Of Mind," a collaboration with Vargas & Lagola, setting a tone of introspection and tranquility. Standout tracks like "Heaven" and "SOS" highlight Avicii's ability to blend melodic pop with infectious EDM beats, while "Tough Love" and "Bad Reputation" feature powerful vocals from Agnes and Joe Janiak, respectively. "Heart Upon My Sleeve," a collaboration with Imagine Dragons, is a poignant reflection on love and vulnerability, while "Fades Away," featuring Noonie Bao, closes the album on a bittersweet note.
"TIM" is not just an album; it's a journey through the artistic vision of Avicii, who tragically passed away in April 2018. The album's release was overseen by a carefully selected group of producers who worked tirelessly to complete Avicii's final musical vision. Proceeds from the album will go to the Tim Bergling Foundation, supporting organizations that advocate for mental health awareness and suicide prevention.
With its diverse range of collaborations and Avicii's signature production style, "TIM" is a fitting tribute to the late DJ's impact on the music industry. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to Avicii's music, this album is a compelling exploration of his artistic evolution and a celebration of his enduring legacy."
