Set of 2013. Quote me on that right now. And if at some point this year you think you found a better one, then hit me up and we’ll debate that for days. Avicii guest stared on Diplo and Friends and it was unbelievable. Diplo really gives him a lot of credit on the mix, and rightfully so. I’ve heard a lot of people saying things like Avicii is proving that he’s more than Levels, but I didn’t even think is was a question. I remember reading a quote from Deadmau5 saying that he couldn’t name one other song that Avicii ever made. I thought to myself, “Really? just because he makes a world wide hit, doesn’t mean he can’t make other good tracks.” One thing that really bothers me is when someone makes a wildly popular track, so they’re discredited and said to of been “a sell out.” Why? Because they made a track that a wide variety of people can enjoy? Call him what you will, but Avicii is one hell of a DJ and if you still disagree after this mix then you never will. This set is one for the ages, and one that everyone can enjoy.

I’m all for defending Avicii especially when it comes to his dj skills as a lot of ppl seem to get bored with his sets after the same old thing. that being said, set of the year would be a little far fetched.
yes its nice to see him straying away from the usual superlove, I could be the one, stay with you, same old, but he’s still no diplo or A-trak or even on a smaller scale, Clockwork. Love the guy, but def take a look at diplo’s other friends before giving Avicii the crown.
I like your input on avicii’s status as a producer, very true =]
