“Our focus was just on giving the fans a special show,” Slaiby said, adding that the performance will be unique to Coachella and not a version of the touring production the Weeknd will bring to Inglewood’s SoFi Stadium in September. Now they’re returning to an industry that has changed considerably since their days in the Hot 100’s top 10. House, techno and tech house are the genres of choice within the dance scene — not the bombastic, often anthemic, larger-than-life “main stage” sound with which the Swedes made their name. Although initially all successful underground DJs in their own right, they “almost got hampered by their own success” as a vastly more mainstream supergroup, says Tong. “They defined a genre in such a specific way.” The marquee acts of their era — Calvin Harris, David Guetta, Skrillex and deadmau5 — survived by evolving their sounds and thus, well, never really going away.

Furthermore, it serves as an exciting early kick-off to the Brooklyn Mirage’s 2024 season, a week ahead of its originally scheduled launch. Fans can anticipate a captivating live set bursting with the group’s signature energy. This special event also coincides with the release of their brand new single, ‘Lioness.‘ Be sure to pre-save the track here. The newest part of Swedish House Mafia’s long past with Ushuaïa Ibiza is going to be a historic set of events.

The group was also holding down an Ibiza residency at Pacha where they performed Monday nights with their own branded series called The Masquerade Motel. Swedish electronic dance music supergroup Swedish House Mafia has pulled off a major coup for their diehard New York City fans. Axwell and Ingrosso more than a decade ago (2013) started their residency called Departures at Ushuaïa. The trio already played special sets at the iconic club but, they also played the Masquerade Motel at Pacha Ibiza in 2011.

I mean, if you move in with your best friend, you will have tension with him too. Now that we’re a little bit older and wiser, we look back and realise we needed a break. Swedish House Mafia promptly decided to split up in 2012 as they arguably were enjoying the peak of their commercial success, which is likely also what sparked the decision to bring the SHM wheels to a halt and focus on their individual careers instead.

Steve Angello (born 22 November 1982) placed at number 23 on the DJ Magazine Top 100 DJ Poll 2011.[157] Steve Angello's claim to fame came when he released his remix of Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams" in late 2004. Was released on Data Records.Angello produces under several different aliases. He often works closely with his childhood friend Sebastian Ingrosso on many projects. Aside from DJing together, they have also produced under the names Buy Now, Fireflies, General Moders, Mode Hookers, Outfunk, and The Sinners. Most recently, they released "Bodycrash" under their Buy Now alias, sampling the 1978 disco hit "Let's All Chant" by the Michael Zager group.

While it’s not exactly clear as to what Swedish House Mafia has planned next, their trailblazing past hints that they’ve only just begun. Swedish House Mafia can be called many things; DJ supergroup, EDM trailblazers, and the faces of mainstream progressive house music — just to name a few. Whatever you call them, they have for sure contributed their fair share in making Sweden the biggest exporter of music per capita in the world. The Brooklyn Mirage performance offers a glimpse into Swedish House Mafia’s electrifying summer plans. The trio is gearing up for a festival frenzy, with confirmed sets at Garorock, Panama Open Air, Tomorrowland, Untold, and Findings Festivals.

They have performed together under this name since 2007, and released world bangers such as “Don’t You Worry Child”, “Save the World”, “One”, and “Leave the World Behind”. In January 2024, Tomorrowland announced Swedish House Mafia will be performing at the 20 year anniversary festival called Life. Asked whom they’d like to collaborate with in the future, Axwell mentioned Willow Smith (“Great voice”) while Angello singled out FKA twigs (“I love her sonics”). The key to a fruitful partnership, they said, is finding someone willing to explore new ground, “so we’re both doing something we’re not used to,” Angello said.

This was released via Ministry of Sound's Data Records imprint in summer 2006.Steve Angello's productions can mainly be classified as house ("Summer Noize"), progressive house ("Yeah"), tech house ("Partouze") and electro house ("Raining Again"). Angello's brother, Antoine Josefsson, is a DJ and a producer who goes by the name AN21. Together they have released the tracks "Valodja", "Flonko" & "Swing N Swoosh".

Swedish House Mafia were dance music kings — and then, at the height of their reign, called it quits. Finally together again in Stockholm, they have a new label, new music and a new outlook. The euphoric record came about after Williams had heard the instrumental live at one of the group’s shows. After several run-ins at festivals, Swedish House Mafia finally suggested Williams drop by the studio. He did and mentioned afterward that the process was “really quick and really simple.” The record now has nearly 200 million streams across Spotify and YouTube. Their euphoric melodies, sleek airtight branding and strategic decisions catapulted them to the forefront of dance music.

The members have all described the period leading up to the split as “draining”, and the break as something they all needed. You can refer to their music in more simple terms as Swedish or European House Music, walking in the footsteps of European EDM artists such as Daft Punk and Tiesto. The group split up in 2013 during what you could definitely call the height of their popularity, a decision they’ve said was based on feeling lost as individual artists and not dealing with the increased pressure that came with this popularity. As a producer and DJ myself during the 00s and 10s, I went to individual and full-fledged Swedish House Mafia shows all around the world since around 2007, and everywhere they toured people were enjoying the hell out of their equally hyped, epic and explosive shows.

“There were limitations before because Harry’s stuff was gonna be in there,” he said. Swedish House Mafia was already booked to take part in the festival when the coveted Sunday-night slot opened up; indeed, it was the first act announced for this year’s edition, which comes after the 2020 and 2021 shows were both called off due to COVID-19. The original plan was for the group to perform directly after Styles’ headlining set on Friday, Angello said in an interview before this week’s run-through. Seated outside at a ritzy Palm Springs hotel, he and Axwell vaped discreetly as they talked; at one point, Angello tucked a little pouch of snus under his top lip.

The record broke into the Hot 100 and peaked at No. 6, garnering 835 million total streams (and counting) in the process. Less than two weeks after its release, the guys announced a farewell arena tour dubbed One Last Tour. The Swedes’ sophomore release, “Miami 2 Ibiza” featuring Tinie Tempah, earned the super-group their first No. 1 on the Dance Club Songs chart.

English rapper Tinie Tempah brings the lyrical fire to this club dance floor jam, spitting catchy, clever verses that play on everything from FIFA to Calvin Klein and Playboy bunnies while Swedish House Mafia provides a trance-tinged chorus as backdrop. Seven years later, this one still bangs — in fact, if it wasn’t for the song’s dated references to Blackberry cell phones, we’d say it hasn’t aged at all.

Originally from Lund, Sweden, Axel eventually moved to Stockholm where he got his breakthrough in 2006 with the Single “Tell Me Why” (produced with Steve Angello). Because of the impact these guys have had on the music scene, people are naturally curious about who Swedish House Mafia are, what type of music they make, and what their best stuff is. So I figured I’d share my take on it as someone who has grown up with their music and followed their progress closely over the years as a fellow house music nerd. “Our collaboration with the DEA is not just about enforcement, but it’s about safeguarding the future of our community and ensuring that Riverside remains a safe and thriving place for people to live, work, and raise families,” Gonzalez said.
