The EDM smash set the standard for an entire generation of club anthems. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call 'Levels,' the career-making early signature song for Swedish superstar DJ, one of the most important pop songs of the 21st century. With its simple structure, booming hooks and soaring vocal sample, the song became a mainstream U.S. Hit at a time that such EDM jams were still not generally considered potential crossover fare, proving the massive audience that already existed for dance music stateside, which would only get exponentially bigger in the years to come. Though the song was copied -- often liberally and explicitly -- by hundreds of imitators to follow, the blinding shimmer of 'Levels' never dimmed, even through years of exhaustive overplay. Like 'Smells Like Teen Spirit,' 'Blitzkrieg Bop,' 'Nuthin' But a 'G' Thang' or any number of other iconic songs in rock and pop history, it remains the purest sonic distillation of a discrete moment in musical history, one that will never be watered down for anyone fortunate enough to have experienced it. While Avicii -- who was tragically found dead today (Apr.
20), at the age of just 28 -- would go on to enjoy bigger top 40 hits, it's the singular rapture of 'Levels' that will undoubtedly soundtrack the late DJ's introduction to the great cosmic rave in the sky, an anthem so naturally in tune with the most visceral forms of musical and physical connection that it absolutely should have the power to cross realms. Here are ten of the biggest reasons why. It earned its full-length edit. The version played on radio that helped propel it to a No. 60 peak on the Billboard Hot 100 in February 2012 -- excellent for a dance near-instrumental, though hardly reflective of the place the song held in '10s pop culture -- ran a scant 3:20.
But for the full impact of 'Levels,' all 5:39 of its full-length version was needed, with peaks that rose and crested throughout in near-perfect symmetry, as majestic as the mountains cartoonishly superimposed in the background of the song's music video. The ringtone-of-the-Gods hook. Like Orbital's 'Chime' or Darude's 'Sandstorm' before it, Avicii's 'Levels' uncovered a synth hook of unnerving simplicity and unthinkable potency. No math to explain this thing's power: Trying to unpack the brilliance here would be like asking Keith Richards to explain why the 'Satisfaction' riff still whips Boomers into a frenzy a half-century later. But it was epochal essentially from first listen, a hook that fills your head until it runs out of room, then seeps its way through your entire bloodstream and just keeps going. That it might not even be the most memorable refrain of 'Levels' is about the only thing you need to know about the song's greatness. The clouds-parting break.
After the synth melody and skipping beat drop get their first extended workout, the hook dissipates into a ghostly repeating echo and the drums drop out entirely, as the skies open up a distant voice appears to arrive from on high. You don't know what's coming, but you know it's going to be big. The euphoric vocal sample. No, Avicii wasn't the first major DJ Etta James' inimitable voice from the 1962 R&B classic 'Something's Got a Hold on Me': Colorado downtempo maven Pretty Lights back in 2006, and hell, even Christina Aguilera the song just a year prior for the Burlesque soundtrack.
But this was always the way the vocal was meant to be reappropriated: a heavenly siren's call beaming down on the masses, a burst of sunlight after what feels like weeks of synth-storming. Matrica bkg na primere kompanii nestle. The rising synth whistle on the second go-round. After 'Levels' finishes off round one with the James sample, it gears back up for a second time through, virtually identical to the first time -- except for a briefly burbling whistle sound that augments the hook at around the 4:10 mark, rising to the top of the song like carbonation in a glass of Coke. It sets the second run through apart, allowing the song to reach another. Well, another level. Indeed, 'Levels' doesn't appear in the song's lyrics -- all two lines of them -- but remains an inspired title for Avicii's signature composition, which is very clearly all about elevation, in all of its many forms. The literal elevators on the single cover are a little on the nose, but forgivable -- few songs this decade brought listeners higher.
