After years of radio silence from Swedish House Mafia, a story of the threesome surfaced on Instagram in February of this year. Apparently in a studio! In order not to let expectations get too high, it stayed that way for a long time. But now we can confirm that Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso and Steve Angello have recorded new material again. It concerns the song ‘It Gets Better’, which was released on 15 July.
It’s been a long time since the Swedes made themselves heard. The last time the successful dance trio performed together was in Miami during Ultra Music Festival in 2018. There had been some frustration over the years with the way things were going, so they decided to dissolve the collective indefinitely. Amicably, they were still fine with each other, but the cooperation was beginning to take its toll. They talk about it in an interview that was published on their YouTube channel.
By now the folds have been ironed out and they are back to doing what they are so good at. Making wonderfully danceable club hits. With tracks like ‘Don’t You Worry Child’, ‘One (Your Name)’ and ‘Save The World’ they caused a furore worldwide. Time will tell what the future holds for the three of them.
