Steve Angello from Swedish House Mafia discusses the release of his latest single “Hooligans” and the evolution of EDM, reflects on the success of “Don’t You Worry Child,” teases a new album from Swedish House Mafia, recounts his collaboration with The Weeknd, the creation of “One,” shares the vision behind his Size record label, and more!

Meghan Mahar:
We’re here with Grammy-winning dance legend Steve Angello. You may know him from Swedish House Mafia, but he has plenty of solo work and more to come. Your new single “Hooligans” is out now. 

Steve Angello:
I was playing Coachella, and I needed that energy and that old ravy kind of Hoover sound. I’m getting technical, but like the Hoover soundy kind of ravy sound. And then, yeah, it was like, straight made for the show. It was to get an effect. Vocals was chopped up for the light production. So it was like, super Steve Angello show music, you know. And then I decided to put it out.

And that was Coachella in 2022.

Yes.

I was there. Great show. 

It was a good show. It was fun. 

Very fun. And you teamed up with fellow Swedish House Mafia member Sebastian Ingrosso for “Skip.” Would you say those songs have a similar vibe?

Yeah. I mean, it’s like that clubby energy, right? It’s like the ravy clubby, gritty, little darker. It’s that energy.

Why did the two of you link up for “Skip” instead of it being a full Swedish House Mafia track?

I don’t remember the process of it. I think we just, you know, studio one night made a song because we’ve, you know, the history of us. Me and Ax used to do songs back in early 2000s like we’ve always done together and all three and mix and match, you know? 

Keep watching for more!
