"I'm not trying to do pop...this is different; it's more indie, melancholic, darker, but still some big songs" ....this is EXACTLY the style of album I've been hoping for. CAN'T WAIT!! #wildyouth

[@MrGreatReini]

he might have left the mafia, but he is still the boss

[@shisho132]

even bigger boss...

[@achrisdesign]

Great interview. Thank you for sharing.

[@dullastonishment]

18:13 "This week I had a thousand demos but I'm not going to pick up a single one and that's scary."

[@gchandler10]

What a legend...

[@ryanimal34]

So much respect for Steve and what he does I can't wait to see him at EDC Las Vegas . He's truly one of the best in the business .

[@Zisakos_Geo]

Not one of the best! He is The best

[@mattuttevl]

this guy inspires me

[@NoDDinOuTMeLoDy]

I never thought it would be Steve to outshine axwell as a solo artist slash dj slash producer. I knew ingrosso was just a hype man and didn't seem to have a good work ethic. But axwell always seemed to me like the better dj and producer but I was wrong this guy is a genius he gets a lot of hate but he is a genius man he can play a 2 hour festival set or a 10 hour after hour set his style of production is amazing and his work ethic is great

[@shazam1522]

i remember he wrote about it in his blog about his gigs in singapore and jakarta.

[@EricTorres713]

Damn. I miss the trio...

[@Sweetuss]

Try focus on "You Know"

[@kasheYT]

XD

[@giovanimariano]

The boss!

[@22calum22]

Good that hes being honest - his answer to the question about collaborating with an asian artist.

[@djmattb1200]

A lot of the things he said about "EDM" Felix Da Housecat said 2 years ago.

[@drifter402]

Is he still releasing material?

[@payno1000]

Anybody else get really annoyed when Pete tong says "Steve an-jello"?

[@rey.adofficial9298]

Same!

[@siddharthnatrajan]

if anyone following sosumi records the guy at 29:50 i guess is DEFIEV who produced that groovy track... just not another groove...

[@atik.vashisht]

finally Steve will come to india !!!! :D !

[@mihatakis]

Good on you mate , in my opinion you are absolutely right :D

[@NoDDinOuTMeLoDy]

To think of the leave the world behind scene in the film where they paint Steve as the guy who is slacking off and taking time off for a tattoo now look he far passed axwell and ingrosso by miles

[@kaiannosfestivalTv]

what a legend ????????????

[@user-br2gq6kj3z]

Ok i agree with steve. There is lack of creativity and innovation. He said that he tries to go back to roots. How is it possible when he gets 300.000$ per show in sls las vegas ? In america they can afford it. But in Europe is completely impossible. So he has to reduce his earnings.

[@relaxchillandsleep4783]

Steve angello kay slekh me3zi

[@TheEmpireMovement]

PHILIPPINES!

[@TomerValve]

I call BS, sure its easy to make money once your "out there" and the whole industry knows you and people from other industries know you, and you have tons of connections. how many artists in dance music are accually like that? 10? 20? 50? how many producers out there who were not able to publish dance-pop hits work and try to make a living doing less hyper-commercial festival genres? 100? 500? 1000? 10,000? This mentality of winner takes it all, and fuck the rest is ruining our society. the business is already ruined years ago...

[@rangers5445]

17:40

[@Dardessia]

I wish people would stop asking Steve, Ax and Seb if they're ever going to do Swedish House Mafia again... It's highly improbable, and people should just accept that it's over now, and let the artists move on in their own respective careers.

[@connortanferno5474]

Could not agree more. It's one thing if people were asking them 5 years later, but they broke up just a little bit ago.. give them some time haha

[@kasheYT]

2017 and people still talk about it :/

[@kufdaw]

2019 and people still talking about it :/

[@sidharthvmd]

Hehe

[@seansines]

And here we are

[@trendingshorts5353]

Boss has a high IQ ❤

[@DINO92AVFC]

looks like some gal had kissed him on a back of the neck and left a ton of lipstick there :D

[@catmario5368]

Okay size isn't all that original one of their newest releases Don diablos revolution is literally a fucking nexus orgy and you seriously get a 1000 demos a week?

[@Julix10]

Exactly what i thought too.

[@KovskiiMusic]

and they just released a preview for something that sounds like heldens with a bitcrusher on it

[@catmario5368]

Kovskii Musiicc yeah exactly haha and he even said in this interview that there's no point in following trends that will die in a year future house is one of them I don't really mind that they do follow trends or whatever I'm not that hipster but it's just weird that he does everything he talked against in this interview

[@lisamarieschnee]

I guess its not deep enough

[@catmario5368]

Krydda there is nothing deep about it!!!
