If 2009 was hailed by many as the year of the Swedish House Mafia, then what the hell was 2010, with the monster SHM hit 'One'? Steve Angello clarifies. "It's been everything I wished for and a little more. 2010 has been a much bigger year for us than '09. And that includes gigs, singles, love, fun and amazingness."

But despite the runaway commercial success of 'One', Angello is still very much a solo artist as well as an SHM member ("SHM affected my solo stuff for the better and I'm super happy about that! And solo work is definitely equally important to all of us," he says), as proven by some of his 2010 singles, including the fidget-house groove of 'Knas', the chunky synth-stab techno of 'Rave 'n' Roll' and a Magnetic Man remix.
So, can 2011 possibly top 2010 for Angello? Probably.
"There's A LOT happening," he confirms. "I'm ghost producing and writing a lot, so loads of huge pop acts will have an SA stamp this coming year." An uber-hip seal of approval, if ever there was one.
