New Avicii music a year after death

- — Los Angeles Times

Turns out Avicii was almost done with an album when he died, and now that music is going to come out, starting with a single to be released on the one-year anniversar­y of his death.

“He left behind a collection of uncomplete­d songs along with notes, emails and texts about the unreleased music,” said his label, Virgin/emi Records, in a statement Friday.

The popular Swedish DJ and producer, whose given name was Tim Bergling, was 28 when he took his own life in Muscat, Oman, last year.

The single, a collaborat­ion with R&B singer Aloe Blacc, is titled “SOS” and comes out April 20. The album “Tim” will be released June 6.
