Steve Angello, a Swedish DJ and record producer, made a powerful statement at the inaugural Ibiza opening on May 31st, 2009, as he took over the Space terrace with his impressive collection of new CDs and unwavering confidence. This was not an isolated event, as Angello had been building momentum for quite some time, with his remix of Moby's "Raining Again" gaining international recognition, and his anthemic re-working of "Tell Me Why" with Axwell becoming a staple in clubs worldwide.
In addition, Angello's collaboration with Laidback Luke on the track "Be" had become a fan favorite, and its spiritual successor, "Show Me Love" featuring Robin S and Laidback Luke, was a massive hit, dominating club playlists and Top Ten charts globally. This impressive run was capped off with the release of "The Yearbook" in November 2009, a collection of Angello's finest production work to date, including the devious "Alpha Baguera" and euphoric "Monday".
The Yearbook was a monumental milestone in Angello's illustrious career, marking a significant turning point in his ascent to the top of the dance music elite. Since then, Angello's diary has been filled with high-profile collaborations, including projects with Pharrell Williams, Cheryl Cole, and Kid Sister. His remix of Magnetic Man's "Perfect Stranger" was recently named Hottest Record in the World by Zane Lowe, and his latest solo offering, the bass-heavy "Knas", has been tearing up festival arenas worldwide this summer.
