Launched on Jan 9,2013, for 7 weeks continuously Avicii gathered fan submissions for what is believed to be the biggest collaboration ever. In order to get as many producers & fans involved, anyone and everyone was allowed to submit their own bit of production by giving out a simple chord progression melody. Record breaking 13,000 entries were received from over 140 different countries. Avicii selected weekly finalists, then allowed fans to vote for the winning beats and sounds to be used in the finished product.

The two-time Grammy nominee pieced together the track after weeks of tireless listening and hours of production at his studio in L.A. Finally, “Avicii X You” is ready for its worldwide delivery. All royalties from “X You” will be donated to House For Hunger, a relief charity founded by Avicii and his business manager Ash Pourouri.

Watch a ‘making-of’ video featuring a stream of the track below.

Project 46 took a shot at the collab — using Avicii’s stems to add their own elements and vocals to the track. This track is not an official collaboration, but still a great one to listen to.
