“Let’s Ride Away”: A Final Emotional Journey
Released today via Interscope Records, Avicii Forever showcases 19 tracks that capture the essence of Avicii’s groundbreaking sound.

Lyrics like:
“It’s in the sky, it’s in the air / If I get lost, I’ll meet you there / We can’t stop ‘til we find our place / Let’s saddle up and ride away,”
echo the emotional depth fans have come to associate with Avicii’s music.
Signature Sound, Timeless Energy
Despite its emotional message, the production on “Let’s Ride Away” remains true to Avicii’s uplifting style. A powerful horn section builds into an anthemic drop, creating a moment of catharsis that feels tailor-made for festival mainstages. It’s a reminder of why Avicii became a household name in electronic music.
A Look Back at an Icon’s Career
“Let’s Ride Away” is one of the final creative projects Avicii worked on before his untimely death in 2018 at the age of 28. The Avicii Forever album doesn’t just honor his memory—it reignites the emotions tied to his greatest hits. From the euphoric “Levels” to the genre-blending anthem “Wake Me Up,” the compilation revisits the sounds that defined a generation of dance music.
More Than Music: A Legacy That Endures
Avicii was more than a producer—he was a pioneer who merged folk storytelling with electronic beats to create a sound that was both personal and universal. Avicii Forever is not only a celebration of his work but also a poignant reminder of the emotional landscapes he helped us explore.
