The family of late Swedish DJ Avicii, real name Tim Bergling, have issued a new statement following the producer's shock passing last week, saying "he could not go on any longer".
It comes after Bergling was found dead last Friday while vacationing in Muscat.
As Variety reports, a police report is expected to be delivered in the coming days.
"Our beloved Tim was a seeker, a fragile artistic soul searching for answers to existential questions," the statement reads.
"An over-achieving perfectionist who travelled and worked hard at a pace that led to extreme stress.
"When he stopped touring, he wanted to find a balance in life to be happy and be able to do what he loved most – music.
"He really struggled with thoughts about Meaning, Life, Happiness.
"He could not go on any longer."

Our beloved Tim was a seeker, a fragile artistic soul searching for answers to existential questions.
An over-achieving perfectionist who travelled and worked hard at a pace that led to extreme stress.
When he stopped touring, he wanted to find a balance in life to be happy and be able to do what he loved most – music.
He really struggled with thoughts about Meaning, Life, Happiness.
He could not go on any longer.
He wanted to find peace.
Tim was not made for the business machine he found himself in; he was a sensitive guy who loved his fans but shunned the spotlight.
Tim, you will forever be loved and sadly missed.
The person you were and your music will keep your memory alive.We love you,
Your family
