The Swedish born Tim Berg AKA Avicii was voted the 'Best Breakthrough DJ/Producer' of 2009. This award is a huge achievement when you consider the fact he only started DJing at the tender age of 18 in 2008 after doing a bedroom remix of the theme tune to Commodore 64 game, 'Lazy Jones'. This led to his first release 'Lazy Lace'.
Following the success of his first big track 'Manman', the 20-year-old Avicii has embarked on his first world tour and has been showing off his spinning skills at various nightclubs in Las Vegas.
Avicii doesn't believe in sticking to one genre of music but loves to have a broad range of sounds. He gets his inspiration from the likes of Daft Punk, Laidback Luke and Steve Angello.
His upcoming projects include a collaboration with mighty Tiesto and Sebastian Ingrosso called 'Generations' because it includes three different generation of DJ's.
