The Wheels and Waves organizers are very excited about Breitling’s active role at the festival. Jérôme Allé said, “We’ve completely enjoyed working with Breitling and are thrilled by the support we’ve had from Georges Kern and his Squads. The third world, Air, was well represented on Friday night as the Breitling Jet Team dazzled festivalgoers, flying through the skies above Biarritz. This year, as Official Timekeeper, Breitling was on hand throughout the festival, which proved once again to be a platform that authentically embodies the Swiss watch manufacture’s Land and Sea brand worlds. Each June, thousands of visitors find their way to Biarritz, where they are treated to displays of world-class surfing, motorcycle racing, and skateboarding. Wheels and Waves is a festival like no other. Since 2012, Wheels and Waves, the world’s leading motorcycle, surfing, and skateboarding festival, has attracted visitors from all over the world – who are drawn to the festival’s dynamic yet cool atmosphere – to the popular resort town. The brand also celebrated its powerful links to two thrilling sports – motorcycling and surfing. With the hypnotic and bright Grammy-nominated track 'Levels,' Swedish EDM DJ/producer Tim Bergling aka Avicii unleashed a global dance hit the size of 'Beachball,' 'Blue Monday,' 'Starships,' and maybe even 'The Hokey Pokey.' If the masses leave the dancefloor, 'Levels' brings them back with sunshine and light, but Avicii's debut album True was a sharp left turn, kicking off with the acoustic guitar strum of 'Wake Me Up,' a pleasant, well-written heritage pop track where 'I Need a Dollar' vocalist Aloe Blacc gets thrown in a synthetic Mumford & Sons surrounding for something that was very non-'Levels.' The rest of the album was equally and shockingly rustic and organic, but here, on this full-album remix of True, 'Wake Me Up' is given a 'Levels'-styled, synthetic kick and returns to the category of prime-time dancefloor stuff, while 'Hey Brother' with vocalist Dan Tyminski trades its bluegrass for dubstep and the bass drops ensue.Breitling took to the Wheels and Waves festival in Biarritz for the launch of its Premier Wheels and Waves Limited Edition watch, which comes in two versions: 18 k red gold and stainless steel.

Other standouts include 'You Make Me,' on which a plunking piano and filtered vocal provide theatrical flourish, and 'Dear Boy,' which flits between enchanted balladry and big, high-energy builds. Stompers like the earnest, acoustic guitar-driven “Wake Me Up' mix Appalachian influences with Aloe Blacc's soulful pipes for a surprisingly intuitive-sounding pop song 'Hey Brother' takes it even further into countryfied territory. EDITORS’ NOTES Compared to his progressive-house megahit “Levels,” Avicii’s True is a musically omnivorous curveball.
