I’m Tim first premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival earlier this year. It was first announced in 2021 and was originally intended for release in 2023, but was eventually pushed back. The film is narrated mostly by Bergling himself, and begins right at his birth in Stockholm, Sweden, through to the eruption of his mighty career, and up until his tragic death in 2018.
Also featured throughout are interviews with his family, friends, and other artists including David Guetta, Nile Rodgers (who featured on Avicii’s 2013 track Lay Me Down), and Coldplay’s Chris Martin, who sang on Heaven from his posthumous 2019 album, TIM.
A synopsis reads, “This is the unlikely story of Tim Bergling, a shy and insecure boy who, without realising it, suddenly created one of the world’s most loved artists – Avicii. Through unique home movies and a huge private archive, we get to follow Tim on a winding journey through life – from the very first breath at the maternity ward in Stockholm in 1989 to the tragic end in Oman in 2018.
“This is a film where Tim himself is the narrator and he shares his inner self in a way we haven’t heard before. Through himself and everyone close to him – family, artist colleagues and best friends – we get to know Tim – the boy behind Avicii – for the first time.”

Timbaland chops up Gil Scott-Heron on Rhythm Roulette — and fans are calling it “the worst episode ever”Revered producer Timbaland has appeared on the latest episode of Rhythm Roulette, but his efforts have not impressed some fans.
For the uninitiated, Mass Appeal’s Rhythm Roulette challenge sees producers make a beat by sampling three random records, which they’ve chosen from a local record store while blindfolded. Previous renowned guests include 9th Wonder, Kenny Beats, Mac Miller, A-Trak, and more. Timbaland’s selection blindsided him from the off, admitting he was unfamiliar with the three records he’d chosen.

However, he did say he knew of Gil Scott-Heron’s The Revolution Will Not Be Televised “from an artist perspective”. The other picks were Future Islands The Far Field and the Jerry Garcia Acoustic Band.
Despite his respected and legendary status, fans of the web series weren’t keen on what Timbaland cooked up. Some even suggested it was the “worst episode” of Rhythm Roulette to date.
“This was like having a Michelin star chef serve you a frozen pizza,”one person says in the YouTube comments.
“This was basically an 8 min Timbaland/BeatClub commercial …and he bombed with the easiest sample,” wrote another.

Meanwhile, over on Reddit, one user writes: “This shit was ASS. He didn’t even LISTEN to the other records and just went with the easy choice but didn’t even pick anything, just chopped the first thing he heard.”
Content creator and producer Weaver Beats reacted to the beat and video, saying “I wouldn’t say it’s trash but it’s not amazing…It’s a decent beat but it was just like super low-effort.”
“I feel like a late 90s era [Timbaland] on Rhythm Roulette would’ve went out of the way to find some obscure parts of records, even if he was lucky to get some often-sampled ones, to chop compared to this,” a third person theorises. “I also hate how generic the drum pattern sounds compared to his signature bounce.”
Others, however, are just happy that the beloved Mass Appeal series is back. “Finally, been waiting so long for this series to return! Please do one a week and stay consistent with it again!!!!” wrote one user on YouTube. Another said “I been waiting for RR to return! LET’S GOOO!”.
Timbaland was recently appointed as Strategic Advisor to AI music generation platform, Suno. Speaking about the platform, he said: “I just love innovation. I love things that can take what I’ve been doing for 30 years of my life and make it better…I loved Ableton [Live] when it came out, but [Suno] is the new everything… I’m like a kid. It’s like I’m 19 years old. It’s like falling back in love with the purity of creativity.”

Anti-algorithm, anti-perfection – the rise of a music counter-cultureToday’s music landscape is one defined by abundance and immediacy. In a chronically-online world, everything is overground immediately. Scenes have to work really hard to stay underground and even then, some eagle-eyed A+R or marketing person is going to see the buzz and try to bottle its essence for wider consumption. Underground never stays ‘under’ for long. Yet, at the same time, we are seeing a blossoming of scenes, both on and offline. While the former are shaped by platforms’ algorithms, the latter are inherently more human in nature and form part of a growing analogue revival. It is not quite a choice between ‘power to the people’ or ‘power to the platform’ but it is not far off. And it is from this cultural dichotomy that a truly unique counter-culture phenomenon is happening: the return of bootleg and remix culture.

The music business has spent the last half a decade or so grappling with the rise of the creator economy. While the long tail is facing endless hurdles (cutting through the clutter, earning thresholds, not to mention UMG’s proposed acquisition of Downtown), it is not going anywhere, but instead creating a bifurcation of the music business. The rise of the consumer creator has resulted in three tiers of music creation:

1.    Consumer creators

2.    Music creators

3.    Traditional professionals

But there is, in fact, a fourth tier: DJs. 

The role of DJs in music’s counter-culture movement

Generative AI and tools like speeding up and slowing down have enabled more people to create, while playlists have empowered people to curate. DJing channels both of those creative lanes, and it is booming. In 2023, DJ equipment was the only major music hardware category to see strong growth (most other categories declined). Meanwhile YouTube is abuzz with DJ sets from a new crop of young, often female, DJs. DJs are an alternative to the algorithm: pure, human curation. 

While much of the DJ boom has, unsurprisingly, been absorbed into the mainstream (e.g., Boiler Room now boasts 4.5 million YouTube subscribers) there is a thriving underground that both looks and feels different.  Its home is SoundCloud.

The problem with everyone having access to everything is that, well, everyone has access to everything. It is really hard to sound different. If you are an established DJ you have the advantage of getting sent promos ahead of release so you avoid just sounding like the Beatport Top 10. However, if you are in the long tail of DJs you do not have that advantage. Your alternative? Bootlegs. SoundCloud has become the home of unofficial bootlegs and remixes. The place where underground DJs source their sets with tracks that are not part of the dance mainstream.

Why Gen Z and millennials are reviving ‘90s dance music classics

Bootlegs and unofficial remixes are by no means something new. What is new, however, is that the fragmented, scenes-based nature of SoundCloud is enabling bootlegs to power underground dance scenes. And what is particularly interesting, is that much of this is being done by young producers and DJs, reimagining ‘90s classics. The ‘90s were, in many people’s eyes, the heyday for many dance music genres, or at the very least, the defining decade. And there are three very important defining qualities of ‘90s dance music:

1.    Production techniques were much more rudimentary than today. As a consequence, the tracks can sound much more raw  and organic than the highly polished electronic music of today

2.    Most ideas, sounds, melodies and chord progressions were being done for the first time, so they had a purer and simpler feel. Electronic tracks since then have had to embellish and modify to be different, putting sonic distance between idea and output

3.    Less music was being made and was being played by fewer DJs, so big tracks became really big. Big enough to still be well known today (a dynamic true of all music genres pre-streaming)

The result is that SoundCloud is awash with Gen Z and millennial producers and DJs remaking ‘90s classics for today’s genres. Whether that be ‘90s trance revival or classic garage tracks being beefed up into UKG bangers. I will refrain from dropping any  links to these creators to avoid putting a  big takedown target on their backs, but there are many who are almost exclusively releasing bootlegs on SoundCloud, each with tens of thousands of followers that eagerly listen to and comment on their tracks. Many of the productions are ‘rough around the edges’, but that is often the point. It is meant to sound different to the over-produced mainstream. It is electronic music’s punk / garage rock moment, where idea matters more than form. 

This is bifurcation in action. These creators are opting not to play in the traditional music business lane (largely because they would struggle to get the rights cleared). So, instead they are operating in the music business’ ‘grey market’ – not quite a black market but not the formal market either. Because this is by its very nature, below the radar, it means these scenes each have a soundtrack of their own, one that you simply cannot find on Beatport or Spotify.

How SoundCloud’s scenes are different from the rest

Crucially, what marks these music scenes as being different from the very-online scenes that prosper in places like TikTok, Reddit, and Discord, is that online is only a link in the chain. The music comes to life in the DJ sets, at parties, small clubs, and raves. Online is where the music is sourced and where people go to relive memories, but offline is where the fun is being had and where the culture lives. There is also a creative virtuous circle at play: the bootlegs are the kicking-off point for scenes but they also respond to the scene, the sound evolving quickly in response to what moves the dance floors.

There are ways in which the traditional business can play in remix culture. Armada’s BEAT Music fund is acquiring rights to classic tracks and getting producers to create modern remixes. This is a smart strategy but it is something different, because those remixes flow into the traditional industry structure. Labels could also tap into (and monetise) the opportunity by creating stem sandboxes with a subscription fee. Though many labels would likely worry about quality control of the output and tracking royalties and plays.

But there is a more fundamental problem / opportunity with trying to assimilate the underground: as soon as you start trying to place formal structures around it and elevate its profile it is no longer underground. Perhaps instead, the best thing the traditional music industry can do is observe and admire from afar. To let these new, anti-algorithm, anti-perfection scenes flourish and wait to see what they create.

“I haven’t met anyone who heard the hardware equivalent of a plugin and didn’t wonder what they’ve been missing” Chris SD on the power of analogueChris SD knows what an effective studio setup entails. After working on albums for the likes of Bryan Adams and Kris Kristofferson, before being recruited as the in-house producer for roots rock band Blue Rodeo, the award-winning Canadian producer gives us insight into the gear that has shaped his career and has developed his talents as an engineer.

READ MORE: CHLOÉ: “Every piece of gear, every collaboration, and every mistake is an opportunity”

Chris now resides in the United States, as the founder of the online studio, Sundown Sessions Studio. His team provides virtual recording, mixing and mastering for artists all across the world, removing many of the geographical barriers that exist for musicians. Adding yet another string to his bow, he is also the founder of sync studio Sync Songwriter, where he assists songwriters with placing their music in TV and film.
The multi-talented producer sits down with MusicTech to digest all of the expertise he has collected over his nearly three decades in the industry, and how it has shaped him in the studio.
Image: Press
What were the soundtracks that made you want to start producing music for film and TV?
There have been so many, but the formative ones were the Spaghetti Western soundtracks by Ennio Morricone, and the work of John M. Keane on the original CSI show.
As a sync producer, you often have to work towards specific briefs in a genre you might not be familiar with. How do you approach new styles, especially on tight deadlines?
We experiment and work with a lot of different styles, but we don’t stray too far from what we’re comfortable with and tend to stick with what we do well. I don’t want to try and compete in outside genres that others do every day. I’m a big believer in finding your lane, and getting better at the things that inspire you.
Tell us a bit about your studio.
I spend time between my home in the Tennessee Smoky Mountains and my sailboat in Southern California, so the studio is pretty much virtual these days. I have a fantastic co-producer and mix engineer who have their own setups.
A lot of the work we do comes from songwriters and instrumentalists from around the world that I meet through my organization, Sync Songwriter. We produce a lot of their music for TV & film and then I introduce them directly to music supervisors for shows, movies, and ads through my program, ‘The Art of the Song Pitch’.

What’s your latest gear or plugin purchase?
My latest purchase was the dynamic resonance suppressor, Oeksound Soothe2. It can sometimes be a bit over the top and easy to overdo on things like vocals, but it works really well on drum overheads and other cymbals to tame harshness and weird resonances. It helps the presence and clarity while reducing weird overtones. It’s definitely worth the purchase for the amount of time it saves over fiddling with an EQ to solve a weird problem!
What’s the best free plugin you own?
The Kilohearts Transient Shaper gets used on pretty much every kick and snare track. It does an incredible job at adding snap and attack and reducing boomy tails on drums.
Goodhertz Tupe and Kilohearts Transient Shaper
What’s been the biggest investment in your career/studio?
The biggest investment has been the analogue pieces that have become the muse of our digital creations. We’re all used to hearing sounds straight out of DAWs, but when you can burn some electricity into those signals, it increases the vocabulary of the track. I haven’t yet met anyone who has heard the hardware equivalent of a plugin they love and didn’t wonder what they’ve been missing.
That said, we’re digiheads like most and there are a lot of things you can do in a binary world that you can’t with sine waves — but brisket always tastes better out of a smoker than an oven, if that makes sense. My smokers are some Neve strips, TAB V72S, Sta-Level, Lisson Grove R-124 and a tape echo.
You have a vast discography. Is there a production or writing technique that can be found across all of your works?
Keeping strong ‘organic’ elements is definitely a theme across the discography. It doesn’t matter if it’s a dance track or a cinematic pop song; having some ‘real’ touches like guitar, acoustic drums, and/or piano can really elevate songs beyond a niche.
Has there been a specific piece of gear or a plugin that has shaped your work as a composer?
The Vox AC30 has been a regular go-to amp for a long time and has been an inspiring sound for years. Something about that tone makes it incredibly easy to sit down and just play and create. It doesn’t matter which guitar or pedals you throw in front of it, turning it on with all the knobs at noon is enough to get something great happening.
How do you see your sound and studio evolving in the next two years?
I’m always really interested in exploring new technology. As plugins become more advanced, new sound design possibilities open up for me. The idea of new gear/plugins allowing me to discover and create brand-new sounds is definitely exciting.
Image: Press
Do you have a dream piece of gear?
The Yamaha CS-60 is definitely up there. The CS-60 has been used a lot by LCD Soundsystem and has an incredibly wacky character that I don’t think plugins have really captured yet.
What’s a music production myth you think needs debunking?
That all you need is a great song. I believe that a great song AND great production go hand in hand. Subpar songs with really cool production can make it. Great songs with subpar production can make it, but the biggest successes happen when both meet at the top.
 
Who gave you the biggest lesson in your career?
When I had just started my first band, I went to a music conference to try and network with some industry folks. As I was walking into the venue, one of the keynote speakers happened to be walking out. It was Malcolm McLaren, the ex-manager of the Sex Pistols. I seized my moment and in passing quickly asked him if he had any advice for a band just starting out.
He looked me up and down, grabbed the conference lanyard around my neck, threw it on the ground and said: “Don’t come to them, go home and write great songs and make them come to you.”
I have kept that advice close to almost everything I do.

This is the best DJ gear of 2024, according to MusicTech’s reviewersThe DJ world offers just as much variety as the studio when it comes to controllers large and small, simple or advanced. While there’s still a wealth of big hardware systems for those playing packed-out sets in clubs, performing on a smaller scale has got easier than ever too.

This year, compact controllers from companies like Native Instruments and the explosion of stem separation tools in software for remixing have made possible performances that were previously near-impossible, using just a laptop. Those looking to record their sets got some love too with the release of the ultimate ‘DAW for DJs’. We loved the breadth of DJ gear released in 2024, and the ease with which you can get into that world – and hone your skills to take things to new heights.

AlphaTheta Euphonia

AlphaTheta is the new name for Pioneer DJ. And the company rebranded with a bang. Euphonia is the company’s first digital analogue hybrid DJ mixer, designed with custom-made transformers from the legendary Rupert Neve Designs. At $3,800 it’s a serious investment but when we got to have a hands-on trial with it we were seriously impressed, finding ourselves “desperately reluctant to hand the mixer back… it’s deeply fun to use and really does have a unique character of being vintage yet modern.”
Although its specialised design means it likely won’t become an industry-standard club mixer, we identified a growing hunger in smaller venues and hi-fi bars like London’s Spiritland for better quality sound, a space in which boutique manufacturers can flourish. And the Euphonia with its superb fidelity and build looks set to find many fans there.
Read our full interview with the AlphaTheta team on Euphonia here.
AlphaTheta OMNIS-DUO
Image: AlphaTheta
In a crowded field, AlphaTheta’s OMNIS-DUO stands out not just because of its striking blue finish but also its compact size. It’s a little heavier than some at 5kg but then it does also include an onboard battery, audio interface and touchscreen. It can power over USB-C and stream music from a USB-A drive or SD card or wirelessly from rekordbox over wi-fi. One interesting feature is its ability to ‘stream’ from a Bluetooth device, caching audio live from a Bluetooth source into a deck in real-time, with the waveform being built before your eyes. It can also record mixes internally.
We loved its overall feel and performance, noting “it sounds excellent and it’s exceptionally fun. The battery might seem like an afterthought to most users, but you’ll find yourself going cable-free more often than not.” And if you’re a rekordbox user, “the OMNIS-DUO is just effortless to use. It’s not cheap, at all, but don’t let the monotone blue fool you – this is a pro unit”.

Native Instruments Traktor Z1 MK2

Native Instruments has always been able to seamlessly integrate its DJ products thanks to building both the software and the hardware elements itself. The Traktor Z1 is among its most compact DJ controllers and comes bundled with the latest Traktor Pro 4 software with its hyper-creative new stem separation tools developed by iZotope.
Connecting to your computer and powering over a single USB-C cable, it also provides monitoring via headphones as well as live EQ and Stem controls, advanced displays and of course mix faders and a crossfader. Being so portable and self-contained, we are big fans of the way it lets you turn up anywhere and DJ with excellent control of playback and FX – there’s even a light-based system on the base for visual feedback about tempos and looping. At just £214 including the software it’s quite the bargain.

DJ Studio

There are surprisingly few efficient ways to record or prepare a live DJ mix or radio show ahead of time, or edit one afterwards, with many apps requiring you to more or less perform the set and simply record it in real-time. DJ Studio bills itself as the first DAW for DJs, providing a linear-style interface but also specialised features like AI-powered auto-mixing from rekordbox and other libraries, and direct search of YouTube to create legal, full mixes together with video.
In our review we praised the way the app “is constantly evolving and driven by passionate, skilful people. We’re confident that this will evolve into an industry-standard tool for DJs and radio show hosts and will become an entry point for music obsessives wanting to explore making their own mixes”. Among other killer features, it’s able to export your mixes as editable Ableton Live projects, in case you want to go even more in-depth.

Native Instruments Traktor Pro 4
Native Instruments Traktor Pro 4. Image: Press
Traktor has been around for almost a quarter of a century but only just reached its fourth major revision, give or take the odd tweak to the branding. Pairing with NI’s diverse range of hardware controllers it remains one of the most user-friendly DJ suites on the market, its system of beat analysis and matching generally all happening automatically and making your DJ life much easier.
Version 4 brought an amazing new development, and something that 2024 saw popping up in other apps and DAWs too – stem separation, powered in this instance by iZotope. We were blown away by its simplicity – with a couple of clicks you can separate out drums, bass, instruments and vocals and then load each one into a special stem deck, deconstructing and reconstructing tracks live, on the fly. There are four decks available, extensive effects and cool new features like the Pattern Player and Ozone Maximizer. It’s probably the easiest and most fun way to perform as a pro DJ.
Read our full review of Native Instruments’ Traktor Pro 4 here.
AlphaTheta XDJ-AZ

DJ’ing needn’t be difficult to get into, and we were impressed by AlphaTheta’s efforts to bring decks to the masses with its highly affordable, ultra-portable XDJ-AZ unit. Powering over USB-C is possible – something that’s appearing in many moderately sized controllers and means fewer cables to carry around.
The killer feature here is the unit’s ability to integrate easily with streaming services like Spotify, Tidal and Apple Music as well as more pro services like rekordbox, Djay and Serato. So you don’t have to download tons of stuff – just connect over USB or Bluetooth and away you go. At £159 we believe it to be quite the bargain and its wide compatibility means everyone should be able to get spinning those virtual discs.

AIAIAI TMA-2 DJ wireless headphones
AIAIAI TMA-2 wireless headphones. Image: AIAIAI
AIAIAI continues to plough its own furrow, producing high-end pro audio and DJ gear with a focus on portability. The TMA-2s are wireless DJ headphones with a twist – a hardware dongle plugs into your computer and wirelessly streams latency-free, hi res sound, removing the delay issues that usually prevent wireless cans being much use for live performance. Of course you can use regular Bluetooth too for when you’re just listening on the move.
Coming in 2025, the headphones use 40mm bio-cellulose diaphragms tuned to perform in noisy clubs, and 25 hours of battery life for those all-night sets. Custom EQ and settings are available via an app, and we’re really excited to put these through their paces as soon as they become available.

AlphaTheta HDJ-F10 wireless headphones
AlphaTheta HDJ-F10 wireless headphones. Image: AlphaTheta
Also staking their claim in the wireless DJ headphone world is AlphaTheta, which has created a new flagship model that is also able to switch between regular Bluetooth operation with all the noise cancelling and features you’d expect, and a hi-res, virtually zero latency mode. This it also does using a special wireless adapter though in this case you will need to buy the transmitter separately – an extra $129 on top of the $389 for the cans, or $499 if both bought together.
They’re certainly tough, having passed US military standard shock testing (for those very energetic sets) and will give you up to 9 hours of SonicLink hi-res playback or 30 hours of regular Bluetooth. This is a relatively new product category and while the price of entry is currently higher than it is for wired models, expect to see this come down over time, and the transmitters get a bit more compact too.
