Pulsating stuff from Swedish House Mafia

The Swedish House Mafia trio might be breaking up soon but they are not going away quietly.

BRINGING in any giant Electronic Dance Music (EDM) star comes with a lot of headaches for any promoter, no matter how experienced they are, let alone the three mavericks in Swedish House Mafia. EDM fans worldwide are currently seeing the collective of Axwell, Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso on their last global party romp right up until March after which they break up and go their own different musical ways.

In the short space of four years, these Swede superstars have combined their already prolific individual talents into one of dance musics most commercially successful brands.

With six widely successful singles in two years, the group is one of the dominating faces of the global EDM scene, with its latest (and last) release Dont You Worry Child (featuring fellow Swedish vocalist John Martin) famously denying the new James Bond movie theme from British songstress Adele, Skyfall, a British chart topper just three months ago.

The news was hyped to a maximum when Malaysia was selected as one of more than 20 destinations around the world for Swedish House Mafias One Last Tour.

Last Friday finally saw the group fly into town from Singapore.

Presented by JS Concerts, the group took on a full-on concert at the Sunway Surf Beach, Sunway Lagoon Resort in Petaling Jaya, Selangor.

In comparison to the massive rave parties that graced the recent Sepang events (featuring David Guetta or Avicii/Above and Beyond/Justice), Swedish House Mafia did have enough fans here to break the 15,000 mark. The crowd had to brave the traffic snarl and rain to get to Sunway Surf Beach.

Credit must be given to the two local deejays (Mr Fluff, DJ Nikki) and one Singaporean deejay (DJ Eclipse) who took turns to warm up the crowd before the headlining act.

It was, surprisingly, an early start (9.30pm) for Swedish House Mafia (SHM), who had earlier indicated it would be starting at 10pm.
