‘Despacito’ Co-Writer Erika Ender Nominated For Two Latin Grammys

‘DESPACITO’ CO-WRITER ERIKA ENDER NOMINATED FOR TWO LATIN GRAMMYS

ENDER WAS NOMINATED FOR “SONG OF THE YEAR” & “BEST SINGER-SONGWRITER ALBUM” FOR HER SOLO ALBUM, “TATUAJES”

LOS ANGELES, CA (Sept. 26, 2017) – As featured in The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, Forbes, Huffington Post, Vibe and more, Erika Ender has been nominated for Song of the Year with “Despacito” and Best Singer-Songwriter Album with her fifth studio album “Tatuajes” at this year’s Latin Grammy Awards. Last year, Ender took home the award for Best Regional Song with “Ataúd”, which she co-wrote with Manu Moreno and Mónica Vélez for Los Tigres del Norte, illustrating the wide range of genres in which Ender has achieved huge successes.

Earlier this month, Erika Ender joined other global leaders and activists at the Social Good Summit, put on by Mashable and the United Nations, to discuss ways to improve the world by 2030. Ender spoke to moderator and MSNBC correspondent Mariana Atencio about how she gives back through the power of music and closed her session with a moving performance of “Por Qué?”, about a young boy abandoned by society, and “Todos Somos Iguales”, which celebrates the diversity that brings us together.

Erika is now tied with Mariah Carey as the female songwriter with the longest-running No. 1 hit of all time. She’s now also the first female songwriter to have a Spanish-language song top Billboard’s “Hot 100” chart.

In October, Ender will be inducted into the Latin Songwriters Hall of Fame, where she stands out as the only woman in her category, and the youngest in history to ever be inducted. To date, Ender has released five studio albums, and songs that she has written are included in more than 160 albums. At least 40 singles penned by Ender, have reached the top of the chartsthroughout the world.

Ender has been the winner of the industry’s most important awards, including the Latin GRAMMY, Latin Billboard, Monitor Latino, SESAC, ASCAP, among other awards and nominations.

Avicii Releases Video for “Lonely Together” Feat. Rita Ora

AVICII SHARES NEW VIDEO FOR SINGLE ‘LONELY TOGETHER’ FEATURING RITA ORA

WATCH HERE: http://vevo.ly/xnwGLZ

LOS ANGELES (Sept. 18, 2017) – Avicii has shared the official video for his new single ‘Lonely Together’. Taken from his current EP ‘AVĪCI’, the track features British pop singer Rita Ora, who performed the song live on the first episode of the 2017 series of BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing on the 9th of September.

The video was directed by Levan Tsikurishvili, and co-directed by Phillip R. Lopez. Of the video, Tsikurishvili says: “It was such a big honour to create this beautiful piece for Avicii and Rita Ora. It has been an amazing fun process in many ways – I loved the idea of playing around with the ‘frozen’ world. What I would do if I could freeze the world – imagine one day if you really could do that, what would you do?”

The 6-track ‘AVĪCI’ EP is the first new music from Swedish DJ, producer and songwriter Avicii since 2015 and the announcement of his retirement from the live circuit last year. ‘Lonely Together’ has already proved a hit and currently sits at number 4 on the UK iTunes chart and has been streamed over 55,000,000 times on Spotify alone.

As well as ‘Lonely Together’, the EP features collaborations with AlunaGeorge (What Would I Change It To’), Billy Raffoul (‘You Be Love’) and Vargas & Lagola (‘Friend Of Mine’), as well as Sandro Cavazza, who contributed vocals to the release’s first single ‘Without You’.

In 2011, Avicii achieved monumental success both critically and commercially with the release of ‘Le7els’, which became a No. 1 dance hit in the U.S. and the U.K, topping the charts in six other countries before earning him a Grammy nomination. His 2013 debut LP ‘True’ spawned four-time platinum-selling, guitar-laden hit ‘Wake Me Up’ which went to No. 1 in 81 countries and became the most streamed song of all time on Spotify – and is still the most Shazamed song worldwide to date. In 2014, Bergling released his second album ‘Stories’, spawning the international hit ‘Waiting for Love’ – a number 1 hit in 22 countries.

AVICII ‘WITHOUT YOU’ LAUNCHES BITMOJI WORLD LENSES

Yesterday, Snapchat launched all new “World Lenses” starring users’ own 3D Bitmoji. These Lenses use augmented reality by placing your own unique Bitmoji in the real world through the Snapchat camera.

Today, Avicii becomes first artist to ever be featured by Snapchat using this new 3D bitmoji lens. Soundtracking this campaign is his song “Without You” featuring Sandro Cavazza, also the first music to ever be featured using this new 3D bitmoji technology in the app.

Click below to check out Avicii using the lens himself with his dog Liam and his personal bitmoji!

And send along any snaps showing your personal avatar dancing along to the song!

***

Introducing 3D Bitmoji World Lenses!

For the first time, Snapchatters can watch their bitmojis come to life in 3D! Bitmoji World Lenses put a playful and quirky spin on life’s everyday moments by depicting them as humorous dramatizations –– either gone swimmingly or sideways –– like a mini-play in the Lens carousel that’s as fun to play with as it is to send to friends.

Simply tap the rear-facing Snapchat camera screen to unlock these Lenses in the Lens carousel.
Point the Snap camera at a surface to place your bitmoji and animate the world with short scenes.
3D Bitmojis appear in the Lens carousel alongside face and World Lenses, and can be identified by an icon that represents each scene.
Snapchatters can direct the animated scenes by scaling, moving or walking around the 3D experiences.
When you’re done playing with your 3D Bitmoji, you can send your creations directly to your friends or post them to your Story.
3D Bitmojis will be available starting today to Snapchatters globally on iOS and Android––so long as they’ve created a bitmoji and have their Bitmoji app linked to Snapchat!

—

Additionally, the official music video for Lonely Together will be released next Monday!

AVICII TO RELEASE DOCUMENTARY “AVICII: TRUE STORIES”, OCTOBER 26

AVICII: TRUE STORIES

A COMPELLING NEW FILM BY Levan Tsikurishvili

COMING TO CINEMAS FROM OCTOBER 26

Tickets On Sale from Monday September 11^th

EXCLUSIVE TO CINEMAS FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY – INCLUDES PERFORMANCE OF AVICII’S LAST EVER SHOW

HOW IS IT TO BE YOU? HOW IS IT TO BE AVICII?:

The Unvarnished Truth

WATCH THE TRAILER HERE: https://youtu.be/1ZFK3VKzQIs

Piece of Magic Entertainment announced today that Avicii: True Stories, a compelling new documentary film by Levan Tsikurishvili, will be premiering on October 26 in selected cinemas worldwide. Avicii: True Stories traces the unvarnished truth behind the success of Grammy-nominated producer, songwriter and artist Avicii (A.K.A. Tim Bergling)– one of the world’s highest grossing live music artists whose seemingly sudden decision last year to quit doing live shows came as a complete chock to his fans and the industry. The film reveals the choices he faced and his thoughts at the time.

The showings of Avicii: True Stories will be followed by a 30-minute concert film of Avicii’s final show in Ibiza August 26, 2016.

The film traces the artist/DJ’s life from his beginnings, all the way to the joy of his success, from his chart-topping global radio hits and subsequent struggles with his physical and mental health. Tsikurishvili followed Bergling for over four years, and captured fly-on-the-wall footage of his experiences and thinking.

Featuring appearances by colleagues such as Chris Martin, Nile Rodgers, David Guetta and Wyclef Jean, Avicii: True Stories is a cautionary tale that explores the taxing nature and intensity of fame from the artist’s point of view as much as it is a film for Avicii’s die-hard fans.

“I wanted to do a brutally honest film about Tim as a person and not only about Avicii. Everybody knows Avicii but very few people know Tim. I think this documentary really shows Tim’s struggle and strength of character. Being a worldwide superstar artist is not as easy as it looks on Instagram”, Tsikurishvili says.

About Avicii

The Avicii story begins when he won a production competition held by Pete Tong in 2008. In 2011, he transformed into a titan seemingly overnight with progressive house instant classic “LE7ELS.” The year that followed saw him become the first EDM DJ to pull off a worldwide arena tour. Avicii shattered expectations of what dance music could be when he unveiled the dance-country swing of “Wake Me Up” at Ultra Music Festival Miami in 2013. The year of 2015 should have been a peak for the producer, but behind the scenes, it was too much. Stress, anxiety and illness were eating him away. He had played more than 800 shows. After an eight month break from touring, in March of 2016, Avicii played Ultra Miami again. Ten days later he announced his retirement, and on the night of August 28, 2016 in Ibiza, Tim Bergling, aka Avicii, played his last show.

About Levan Tsikurishvili

Stockholm-based documentary filmmaker who has also directed music videos, documentary series television, and concert films. Avicii: True Stories (2017) is Tsikurishvili’s 4th documentary feature. He has been following Tim Bergling since 2013, and on a near-daily basis over the last three years.

ERIKA ENDER: THE WOMAN BEHIND “DESPACITO”

The Panamanian-born Erika Ender co-wrote “Despacito”, and is now tied with Mariah Carey as a female songwriter with the longest-running No. 1 hit of all time. Additionally, the Latin Grammy-winning songwriter and TV personality is the first female songwriter to have a No. 1 on Billboard’s “Hot 100” chart in Spanish.

As featured in HuffPost, Billboard, AP, Vibe, Forbes, Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times, Ender is one of Latin music’s most successful songwriters, with more than 160 albums already recorded with her songs. In October, she will be inducted into the Latin Songwriters Hall of Fame, and is the youngest to ever be inducted. Ender released her fifth studio album “Tatuajes” in May of this year, where you can find her acoustic version of “Despacito”.

*AVAILABLE FOR INTERVIEWS*

“Despacito” is now the most-streamed track of all time, and “can additionally now boast the honor of the longest-leading Hot 100 No. 1 of the 21st century, as it has passed three other singles that each ruled for 14 weeks since 2000.” (Billboard)
Additionally, “Despacito” is now officially tied as the longest-running No. 1 hit of all time, as it tops the Hot 100 for its 16th consecutive week

DIMITRI VEGAS & LIKE MIKE VS DAVID GUETTA FEAT KIIARA RELEASE THE STUNNING IBIZA VISUALS FOR ‘COMPLICATED’

WATCH HERE: https://youtu.be/w0EF3AxJwLU

After a live rendition during their headlining Tomorrowland set featuring an appearance from Kiiara – superstar DJs Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike have released the video for their David Guetta assisted track, “Complicated”. The Radio 1-supported track has already amassed over 13 million streams on Spotify.

Set in Ibiza, the video depicts the island’s idyllic landscapes with enthralling, contemporary dancers. A stark contrast to the place synonymous with Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike’s acclaimed Garden Of Madness residency parties where guests this season have already included Guettahimself, Armin Van Buuren and Nicky Romero, and where usually high-octane debauchery and speaker-blowing bangers comes to the fore across the Playa d’en Bossa. Kiiara’s bright presence bounces through Ibiza Town as Dimitri Vegas, Like Mike & David Guetta’s Midas touch for beat making forms the perfect musical marriage of 2017 on the pop-meets-dance horizon.

‘Complicated’ collaborators David Guetta and Kiiara both bring their indubitable style and feel to the record. That, added with Dimitri & Mike’s impact, has the track segueing between a festival-ready crowd-chanting anthem and an unavoidable drive time radio hit. Directed by Phillip R Lopez, known for his pervious shoots with the likes of Kygo & Selena Gomez, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike vs David Guetta feat. Kiiara’s ‘Complicated’ is a visual, illustrious merger of talent that accumulates as one of the most hotly-lauded releases of 2017.

AVICII IS BACK! 6 TRACK EP: ‘AVĪCI’ OUT TODAY

FEATURING ALUNAGEORGE, RITA ORA, BILLY RAFFOUL, SANDRO CAVAZZA, AND VARGAS & LAGOLA

LISTEN HERE: http://avicii.lnk.to/AVICI

LOS ANGELES, Calif., August 10, 2017 – After eight intense years of music-making and touring around the world – Avicii, aka Tim Bergling– announced that he was stepping down from the stage. People everywhere thought he had left the music scene for good. Shortly after Tim went out on a journey across the States together with his closest friends and creators, and this transformational journey led him back to the joy of doing what had always meant the most to him – composing music. One of the first tracks to come out of that process was “Without You”, a song of freedom and empowerment, featuring Sandro Cavazza. Avicii performed the track at Miami’s Ultra Music Festival in 2016. Of the new EP, Avicii says:

“I’m really excited to be back with music once again, it has been a long time since I released anything and a long time since I was this excited over new music! My focus on this first EP of the album was to get a mix of new and old songs, some that fans have been asking about/waiting for mixed with brand new songs that they haven’t heard before!”

Today Avicii, releases ‘AVĪCI’, his highly-anticipated EP of six new tracks. ‘AVĪCI’ is his first new music to be released since 2015. The ep features collaborations with Rita Ora, AlunaGeorge, Billy Raffoul, Vargas & Lagola and Sandro Cavazza, continuing Avicii’s practice of working with great vocalists who can deliver on the uplifting energy and infectious melodies of his music.

Listen to the playlist here

Hitmaker Rita Ora features on the pop anthem ‘Lonely Together’, on a classic four-on-the-floor that bridges the gaps between pop, dance, and the phases of Avicii himself. AlunaGeorge, the English electronic music duo from London, appear on ‘What Would I Change It To’, a soft reflection of one who’s finally convinced that the “right now” is right after all. Canadian-born, 22-year-old singer-songwriter Billy Rafoul’s character driven vocals power ‘You Be Love’, which was recorded in Nashville; its pure Avicii brightness with the clean, catchy style and uplifting energy.

The EP opens with the “Friend of Mine”, which blurs lines between folk roots and a burning synth hook. It’s a tale of friendship lost and longed for sung with playfulness by fellow Stockholm natives Vargas & Lagola, who have previously collaborated with acts such as Miike Snow, Madonna, Axwell /\ Ingrosso, Katy Perry and more.

The final bonus track on ‘AVĪCI’ is a remix of Sandro Cavazza’s track ‘So Much Better’, remixed by Avicii.

Full track list for Avicii’s ‘AVĪCI’ EP below:

1. Avicii ft. Vargas & Lagola ‘Friend of Mine’

2. Avicii ft. Rita Ora ‘Lonely Together’

3. Avicii ft. Billy Raffoul ‘You Be Love’

4. Avicii ft. Sandro Cavazza ‘Without You’

5. Avicii ft. AlunaGeorge ‘What Would I Change It To’

6. Sandro Cavazza ‘So Much Better’ (Avicii Remix)

“AVĪCI”: Retail / iTunes / Apple Music / Google Play / Amazon mp3 / Spotify

In 2011, Avicii reached critical mass with the global success of “Le7els,” which became a No. 1 dance hit in the U.S. and the U.K. “Le7els” topped the charts in six other territories, has been streamed over 200 million times on Spotify, and garnered Bergling another Grammy nomination. In 2013, the Swedish songwriter and producer cemented his place in the firmament of superstar recording artists/DJs with the success of his genre-defying debut album, True. True spawned the 4x-platinum guitar-laden stomper “Wake Me Up,” which hit No. 1 in 81 countries and became the most streamed song of all time on Spotify and the No. 1 most Shazamed song worldwide, while racking up 1.6 billion combined YouTube views. Later in the year, Avicii won his first American Music Award, an MTV Europe Music Award, and a World Music Award. “Wake Me Up” won a Billboard Music Award and an iHeartRadio Music Award.

In 2014, Bergling released “Stories”. Stories has achieved more than 750 million streams on Spotify and spawned the international hit “Waiting for Love,” which was #1 in 22 countries. Today, Avicii has a combined total of 11 billion streams. In March 2016, after a performance at Ultra Music Festival, Bergling announced in a letter to fans that that he would be retiring from performing live. But the silver lining from his announcement was a renewed conviction, inspired energy, and much more time to get back to what Avicii does best – create music.
