Swedish DJ Avicii has assured his fans that he will continue making music even after retiring from touring.
The 26-year-old, whose real name is Tim Bergling, played his final show on August 28, at Ushuaia in Ibiza and although he's walking away from gigs he insists it doesn't mark his "last days in the world of music," reported Femalefirst.
"Sunday was my last show. But far from my last days in the world of music. Creating music is what makes me happy and I have gotten to know so many great people in my days of touring, seen so many amazing places and created endless of good memories.
"The decision I made might seem odd to some but everyone is different and for me this was the right one. Thank you to all my fans, my friends and family and everyone in the aviciicrew/family. This has been our journey together," he said.
Back in March, Avicii wrote an open letter to fans stating that he was giving up life on the road after fulfilling his 2016 commitments in a bid to get back his normal life.
