For all the mystery that surrounds them as a group, this interview is the closest I have ever felt to them. A brilliant deep dive into the cohesion of the album and anecdotes of the production and personal experiences of making it. Thanks Zane :D

[@mamat8184]

Zane is the maestro interviewer. He goes deep.

[@aryafucku]

you should probably watch their documentary

[@jasonhutson7406]

Well said! Am so happy I found this and SHM will never die! I just seen them in Miami and just blew my mind

[@spencergoolsby5773]

Steve is a visionary and a mastermind, a true titan in the scene and also often overlooked. I’ll never forget this interview.

[@DavidDiaz-he6ei]

I met Steve outside a club called Avalon in LA after he played around 2009. He was such a great guy and so warm. He was cool and talked to me for a while and gave me a hug and photo. When I was about to leave a homeless guy asked us for some money and Steve gave him a handful of cash. The look on the homeless guys face was priceless. I’ll never forget that moment. Steve is truly great producer and person!

I love the three of them. However, watching this interview, I can feel and appreciate how important was Steve in this whole project. He is a true artist.

[@JAY-rahd_GI-benz]

No doubt. Comparing Axwell & Ingrosso’s “solo” album to Steve Angelo’s solo work is real eye-opening.

When I first heard Moth To A Flame, I can clearly hear SHM's part without even seeing title name and artists. That's THEIR signature that I could hear. I really wanted more of that throughout the album. Although I still liked the album, I was hungry for more of those signatures. Going to see them this August!

What’s impressive to me is how he even remembers certain moments and situations that happened at their concerts that he visited over 10 years ago. The amount of artists and concerts this guy goes to and still being able to recall those small moments… unreal how good he is at connecting with artists.

[@jawadkunkar7045]

Me too!!!

[@maph2759]

2:40 It definitely helped to keep Swedish house mafia as a main talking point that some of the most important songs in (specially) Axwell and Ingrosso’s big sets were the OG songs from SHM

[@metafuel]

I've just started this - but hats off to Zane for Sitting lower than his guests. It's a humble thing you don't often see in main stream talk shows. EDIT: Is that Apple Musics grow room when not shooting? That is some expansive concrete and light. A bunch of little autobots move the furniture out the way and shuffle the plants back in to their happy place when shootings over :)

[@DiegoBattini]

watch the interview... Steve selected that chair!

[@JamesDavidMusic]

No. It’s a massive car garage studio in LA that has been hundreds of music videos, the dark knight LOL. You can like rent it out for a few hundred a day

[@activewreck6230]

Just saw them this past week at Coachella, by far one of the best live performances I have seen in any type of festival. So happy they came back together and performed, will be a night I will never forget.

[@stvceyh]

58:46 the way Sebastian Ingrosso talks about Fred again.. & borderline fan boys over him... honestly relatable lol 🥲 like even they know just how good he is...! loved hearing about their collaboration. TOTLA & Calling On are such good tracks, can't wait to hear what the unreleased one by Fred ft. SHM will be !!!!

[@cheesybirdmess7349]

44:41 first I was like you really nailed it with the setup aesthetics for this interview but since Steve himself changed the chair it makes perfect sense why is that lol

[@franciscomullers]

I'm so happy for them. Been an fan since day 01, back in the good old days for almost 11 years. Seen them back together not as djs but as family again, makes me happy. They're the ones that made me into house, into being a DJ and changed a lot of my personality somehow, specially Axwell, the man that i follow every step. Loved the album, its been on repeat since the release. Hope to see them live one day!

[@alesiamariel]

I was waiting this interview, I grow up with them... I'm sure to not be the only one had amazing memories with their music✨🥺

[@maph2759]

They are 100% right. The first time they probably hated it because they did it for need more than because they enjoyed it; But now, they are all extremely successful, there was no need to come back together, but they are doing it because they enjoy it, and that is when they perform the best.

[@phaerie]

This interview gives us an insight to who "Swedish House Mafia" are really are. We usually see this depiction of Swedish House Mafia as a legendary EDM trio, and not just the people behind them. It's a good way to, in a way, know them a bit better.

[@alexandraperdomo7832]

I admire Steve's creativity

[@IAmAshleyBailez]

When I’m old and grey, I can tell my grandkids that these guys made Electronic Dance Music on an astronomical scale, selling out stadiums, had a rave in Madison Square Garden, closed every festival they play at

[@christiantovar2012]

They need to release “Underneath it All”

[@latinballa88]

Steve Angelo at Echostage is still the best concert I’ve ever attended

[@princecruz4359]

SHM coming back with this music is also us coming back after the pandemic. We worked hard, we got sick, we got hurt, got the time to heal and think without pressure. This is us. Their music is all of us. Theres a reason why their the best at what they do. Music is all about emotions and being together through tough times and through happy times with music. I think their music is all about being united. And thats why they got back together,

[@CDCvlogs]

weird they did not mention Desembra. Would´ve been cool. Anyways, loved the interview. For the first time I felt a very personal connection with them

[@lautibentz]

amazing interview, the new era of swedish house mafia is fireee

[@rolandserna7805]

Scrolling through this interview and realize that 75% of the time is interviewer talking and 25% SHM talking. But I guess some people just love their own voice.

[@reymondvtoscano]

I understand your point. but the interview is based on a fan (Zane) asking SHM questions. the concept is as if you were the one having those conversations with them. the interviewer is asking and speaking as a fan. none the less we really got a deep inside into where they are now. I see a healthy relationship with one another. if you notice... steve places his hand on seb and ax legs. that right there shows you how much they are connected now and how intimate they are with one another.
