tracks appeared on their double gold-selling compilation album ‘Until One’,
which is still in the top 50 chart nearly two years after its release. The boys
followed this with top 10 UK single ‘Save The World’ last Summer, also a huge

house DJ’s and
producers, each hugely successful in their own right; Axwell, Steve
Angello and Sebasitan Ingrosso
Angello and Ingrosso met as children in Stockholm; Axwell did not become
a member until years later when they contacted him after a chance meeting.
Their first joint production, “Get Dumb”, was produced with Laidback
Luke in 2007
They officially formed in 2008
They followed this with “Leave the World Behind” in 2009, produced with
Laidback Luke and Deborah Cox
In 2010 they signed a record deal with UMG’s Polydor Records, after a
fallout from EMI due to differing ideas
Their first official single, “One (Your Name)”, was released on Beatport
in 2010 where it achieved international success, charting at #7 in the UK
singles chart
Their next single, “Miami 2 Ibiza”, charted at #4
They placed at #10 on the DJ Mag Top 100 DJ’s in 2011
On 12th March 2012, they released their latest single “Greyhound”, which

leg of their 2012 tour would be their last: "Today we want to share with
you, that the tour we are about to go on will be our last. We want to thank
every single one of you that came with us on this journey. We came, we raved,
we loved."
They stated three show dates, with the last leg of their tour set to be
announced in August. It is unknown whether the group members will collaborate
with each other again. In an interview with Rolling Stone in regards to the

"we've had beyond our dreams and we've come very, very far"; Angello
also stated that he is focusing on developing his own label, Size Records,
while on hiatus.
