Avicii vs Martin Solveig vs Axwell - Hello, I Found Levels (Gauffie mashup)
Oh my! DJ Gauffie strikes again with another gorgeous mix partly made up of Swedish components and partly of foreign ones but the result is all sorts of weekend brilliance!
First time we mentioned DJ Gauffie talking about his mashup of Lena Philipsson's "Idiot" and Taio Cruz's "Higher" and now he has mixed up Axwell's "I Found U", Martin Solveig "Hello" and Avicii's "Levels" - track that we surprisingly completely have missed but which is the main component of this mashup with its loud clubecstatic synths - the most appreciable dance-feature of this season.
What has come out of it this combination you can check right below and don't tell me it's not amazing!

Axwell - Heart Is King
Swedish House Mafia creative activity doesn't know limits, it's like they never disappear, don't they?
Axwell's releasing brand new single "Heart Is King" on April 4th and comparing with his previous works it feels like a bit new direction, I'm even not sure I could easily guess it's Axwell who stands behind this track.
"Heart Is King" is still club track basing on epic hymn-like tune bringing reasonable bunch of royalistic pathos in heavy club production, starting as electro-intro pulsing in crazy rhythm growing and growing to massive euphoric dancefloor filler.
I should mention as well that I LOVE cover-style and way visualization is done.

Killabite - Follow Me Home (video)
Killabite after pretty successful release of new single "Follow Me Home" that's currently rolling quite well in iTunes chart has shot new video (that we didn't count to after previous animated cut but underestimated these creative guys).
Video is quite nice and the song has grown even more on us, though it would be weird if project of Alexander Kronlund and Axwell didn't work, so you can already check it below and don't forget to watch their live set with other Killabite's songs on their Facebook page.

Killabite - Follow Me Home
Sweden always attracts many artists around the world gathering them in local studios to give a birth to new hits from Swedish songwriters and producers. This time I'd like to tell you about international project Killabite that seems to settle in Sweden for a long time to fill its bag with some great music stuff.
Legend says that Matt and Chao being interested in aliens, paranormal concepts and so on have met at an underground UFOlogists Anonymous Club meeting in LA. Music that they've decided to make together was also planned to reflect their interests being full of cosmic sounds and proper science fiction atmosphere. Few years ago they were mentioned by international-community with pretty successful cover "Puttin’ On The Ritz" (under "the you know who..." name). Work and life in Scandinavia has brought them to new impressive colaboration with Axwell and Alexander Kronlund on new track "Follow Me Home". Pretty interesting electro-pop track, Alexander worked (among million of other records) on last Robyn's album "Body Talk" and tasty chorus line smells Robyn a lot, when verses are based on filtered robo-vocals. Band seems to be creative not only when it's up to music but in live performances, check yourself one of them below and don't forget to download very nice mix of "Follow Me Home" for free here.

Dance weekend (part 1)
Weekend has started so let's celebrate it with doze of dance-music! From today till Sunday night I'm gonna present you some recent nice mixes I haven't told about but undoubtfully should. So let's start with first three!
Participant of Melodifestivalen-2011 - Jenny Silver has released pack of mixes from Soundfactory for her single "A Place To Stay" right before Stockholm Pride this year. Jenny unfortunately didn't qualify to finals but turned to be one the highest non-qualifiing entries this year (#12). We wonder a lot if Jenny's solo-career will go further as this March she was presenting some other really good new songs in Stockholm and sure Soundfactory's works are always what gets to our spot.
Thanx to Planet Salem for mentioning new amazing mash-up of Axwell & Ingrosso feat. Salem al Fakir's "It's True" and smash hit of Kylie Minogue's "Get Outta My Way". Before this year collaboration of Salem with Swedish House Mafia was one of the brightest highlights of Salem's discography so talented variations of this great track are always welcome!
And finally here's video-tratment for Mikey's Dance Version Remix of the latest Ace Of Base single "All For You" - this is probably most close to original and radio-friendly mix so hope you'll like it as well.

Adrian Lux - Teenage Crime
Adrian Lux is fresh face in Swedish club music but after two successful singles "Strawberry" and "Can't Sleep" it's hard to call him newcomer as both of them turned to be really adult tracks with interesting videos with ideas and magic sound of Adrian.
Like every DJ he usually works on mixes for different artists and has already mixed Deborah Cox, Basement Jaxx, Salem Al Fakir and Oskar Linnros but I would put your attention more on his own tracks and I have a great reason for it.
Recently Adrian has released his third single "Teenage Crime" with support of not less than Axwell who has added his own remixes to Adrian's package and right now video for this single is out and its another great work. Like previous singles "Teenage Crime" has recognizable meditative mood with amazing atmosphere, catchy vocal line and light touch of Swedish pop-melody-line that you can sometimes feel in tracks of Swedish House Mafia. Video shows middle-age mom leaving her family in the night to catch young guy in the club to spend the night with, very thoughtful and interesting video that you should pay attention along with another works of Adrian.

Axwell - Nothing But Love (video)
Axwell presents new video for his latest club-anthem "Nothing But Love" and though this is powerful energetic positive dance track the video has simple but dramatic plot, it's about life, death, friendship, freedom and all the serious things which hardly would be understood with this kind of song. But finally track is brilliant, it has big international potential and is already played across Europe and video having really high quality gonna be very welcome on music channels so meet next huge Swedish music export "Nothing But Love".

Swedish House Mafia - One
Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso and Steve Angello have just released video for their new single "One" that already entered Top-30 of Swedish single-chart and on the way to dancefloors and radio-stations around the world.
Swedish House Mafia is the title of three world-known Swedish DJs union that was formed when Axel "Axwell" Hedfors moved to Stockholm and met Sebastian Ingrosso and later Steve Angello and Eric Prydz but currently Prydz moved to Lodon and is not considered as the part of Swedish House Mafia. However guys stay friends and support each other in their sets. Sure previously members of SHM released some stuff together, probably you were on another planet if you didn't hear any of these brilliant samples of their work - Supermode's "Tell Me Why" (project of Axwell and Steve Angello), mix of Salem Al Fakir's "It's True" made by Axwell and Ingrosso and "Leave the World Behind" where all three DJs collaborated with Laidback Luke and Deborah Cox.
This time Swedish House Mafia decided to work with Pharrell and if someone has doubts about it becoming another future world hit of Swedish House Mafia - just don't!
