Supermode's 'Tell Me Why', produced by Axwell & Angello, looks set to be the record that sees the Swedish house mafia set up shop in the UK charts once more. It was therefore only a matter of time before the remaining cognoscenti followed in Mr Prydz footsteps and set their sights chartward. The record featured Jimmy Somerville's unique soprano strains and a riff that became synonymous with the decade of hedonism and bad suits.įast forward to 2006 and an updated version by Supermode has already garnered support from the likes of Radio 1's Pete Tong and Judge Jules (who made it his Tried & Tested), as well as Roger Sanchez & Erick Morillo, who have been hammering it in all of their recent sets.ĭubbed the Swedish House Mafia by the music press, Axwell, Steve Angello, Eric Prydz & Sebastian Ingrosso, have taken the dance industry by storm with a slew of quality productions, remixes and legendary DJ sets.
