We're pretty sure these aren't happening at the same damn time, but two interesting news pieces came our way about Avicii that we figured you diehards would like to consume in one sitting.

This is a developing story, but Your EDM states that the appearance of some kind of contest to win a Meet & Greet with Avicii during the Ultra Music Festival 2013 is going on; there's an eBay page that shows a winning bid for $3,700 for such an event, which reportedly included flight and hotel. At Night Management's Ash Pournouri also posted the following tweet:

We'll see what this matriculates into. The other bit of news is regarding Avicii's forthcoming debut album, which is said to have a number of collaborators on it. One person he wishes to work with is Coldplay's Chris Martin, telling the Daily Star that "there’s something with the way he writes and the feeling he brings with his voice that’s unreal. It totally works in an EDM setting." Stranger things have happened, and with the way 2013 is already going for EDM, this isn't that much of a reach.

Stay tuned for updates on either of these developments.
