John Summit then made a TikTok clip of his own (see below) and stated his displeasure towards the comparisons. The house music star, whose hit tracks include, ‘Where You Are’, ‘La Danza’, and ‘Shiver’, said that the comparisons were “extremely disrespectful” and the late, legendary Swedish icon of dance/electronic music was an inspiration for him.
John Summit then added that the only way to honor Avicii’s legacy was to “not make the same mistakes”. At the end of the clip, John Summit then affirmed his love for entertaining the fans and music making. Avicii and John Summit are two incredible electronic music professionals who have their own unique and phenomenal way to connect with their fans through their unforgettable tracks.
