World-renowned DJ and Grammy winning artist, producer David Guetta has given Avicii’s forthcoming new single ‘Addicted To You’ a bold and exclusive new club rework ahead of its Beatport release on February 25.

Following the release of latest club smash ‘Shot Me Down’ ft Skylar Grey on Jack Back Records, a track that held the No.1 spot on Beatport for a number of weeks and has now by public vote become a Top 5 UK hit, Guetta & Avicii collaborate here for the first time since the pair joined forces on ‘Sunshine’ almost three years ago.
Where the original showcases Avicii’s soulful capabilities and builds upon his remarkable penchant for blending both acoustic and electronic elements, Guetta – who rarely remixes, but couldn’t say no to this, opts for a complete club overhaul, deploying a charging, bass-heavy outlook right from the off. Only pausing for breath to accommodate Audra Mae’s stunning vocal, Guetta fuses thumping basslines and huge, rip-roaring synth lines to incredibly potent effect, transforming Avicii’s original into a brooding club smash. Precision-engineered for the dance floor, expect this to be one of the year’s biggest club remixes.
Following the release of ‘Hey Brother’ at the tail end of 2013, Avicii is to head out on a now sold-out extensive international tour in support of ‘True’ in Feburary, with further tour dates also confirmed in the US. This comprehensive roster of shows will include two UK dates in Manchester and London, on February 20 and 21 respectively.
