Who in the blue hell is "Avicii" and why would we care??

How about: I don't give a piss about him.

Avicci worked pretty fucking hard for that money, anyboody who has been a DJ or a club promoter knows what kind of lifestyle you have to live to be a good DJ, alot of travelling,drugs,no sleep, dealing with E-tards all the time. very hard industry. avicci will be fucking tired for years when he settle down. hell he might gas out in just a year or two. It's just a shitty lifestyl being one of the worlds best DJ's. Rave/Party secenes all night get sickening! hard to stay clean from drugs. I bet avicci barely slept all of last year. he will burn out soon. he won;t own that house for long.

Stupidest post on getbig ever,.
A DJs life is a fucking piece of piss, they dont even play records anymore, at least that required some skill to pull off.
ANYONE can DJ these days, literally anyone.
Its all on PC the tunes mix themselves with beat counters and all kinds of technology.

Fucking hell I know a few DJs from way back who still do it, they used to carry around boxes of records , now they turn up with a laptop and even play pre-mixed sets.

Wake the fuck up, that post of yours is an insult to people who put in a days work anywhere.

And lets be honest, that's the fucking best song ever created. Simply Unbeatable. I don't know how the guy does that, but the song was THE shit coming out, then it got boring after a year or so for a few months and now it starts getting cool again. Listen to it again all the time these days like it just came out ;D

Commercial bollocks, you need to get out more mate, some tracks that never get played mainstream blow the socks off that one.

For me one of the best dance tracks ever made.

That track left me kinda cold.  Same ramp beat trance stuff they've been doing for 20 years.  I still can't believe Darude got away with it in his day, never mind guys now.  Seemed like D&B electronica would have to evolve into polyrhythm but commercially successful stuff all seems to be as rhythmically rigid as rock & roll, with Paul's Boutique samples and wub sound effects to distract you from it being just breakbeat 1-2-3-4.  Kraftwerk did it just as well.  :-\  Where's the new?


I just want to dance is all.

Your disco, sir.

Dude is only 24 and selfmade, started from the bottom. Being the best DJ in the world pays off I guess :o

Good observation. I believe that the reason is simple. Most people have 'child brains', so they enjoy a trip to Disneyland or Las Vegas, watch 'real life' shit on TV, appreciate lame jokes, have 'coffee talks', never read a serious book, etc..., etc... and they listen to simplistic/monotone beats.

I looked at properties on the HOllywood Hills back in 2010 and this is my dream home.

Perfect on all counts. Dream come true.

Absolutely. But like I said b4, he plays ~300 gigs per year, so he won't be able to enjoy his home very often.

Always makes me furrow my brow to follow hardcore stuff, and I confess I don't necessarily dig it but it's never dull, and I figured there's no way music would stay as boring and formulaic as 50's rock, especially with the reduction to rhythmic examination that D&B seemed to concern itself with.  I'm surprised it settled into a boom-boom groove for so long without the world saying enough already.

Damned if I can remember the pre-madrigal dude who was big into it.  I heard some brain-bending pieces from Europe in a lecture series once.  I like bop a lot too, but Coltrane, for ex, takes all my concentration.  Some of it I just can't follow.

Well the obvious solution to this is to become his b/f so you can live there while he travels.

Yeah... some of that stuff has SO much going on at once that it becomes almost chaotic. Whats really cool is when you get former Jazz drummers playing in melodic metal bands... My buddy (drummer) and I grew up playing Jazz in HS and I turned to guitar after I graduated, and some of the rythms that dude could bang out with his set was absolutley insane.. especially when coupled with his pounding, brutally fast double bass and jazz-ish inspired kit work on top of it... It's hard to explain but it was an extremely original, awesome sound.

BTW, this gets pretty crazy very quickly.

Swede!!

Swedes have the most fascinating (yet fairly irritating in some ways) culture.

Calm down.

Avicii seems cool though. A few solid songs also even though I dont lvoe the genre to say the least.

Becoming a multi millionaire by doing something you enjoy and making millions of people happy is pretty cool yes
