Axwell

With multiple DJ Awards and a bright, distinctive sound, electronic dance musician Axwell is an award-winning DJ/producer, one half of a multi-platinum duo with fellow DJ Sebastian Ingrosso, and a member of the progressive house supergroup Swedish House Mafia. With the latter, he conquered festivals from the early 2010s and into the 2020s, scoring platinum certifications with their albums Until One and Until Now and topping charts with 2022's Paradise Again. As a solo artist, he churned out consistent singles, most notably 2008's "What a Wonderful World," 2012's remix of "In My Mind," and 2018's gold-certified "Belong."Born Axel Christofer Hedfors in Lund, Sweden, he grew up playing drums. His love of beats and percussion flowed naturally into electronic music composition, which he started as a teenager. He performed under early monikers OXL and Quazar before doling out remixes as Axwell. He first hit the Billboard dance chart hit in 2003 with the single "Burning" (a collaboration with Robbie Rivera and Suzan Brittan), while 2004 saw the release of "Feel the Vibe," a hit that would surface again in 2005 as "Feel the Vibe ('Til the Morning Comes)" with singer Tara MacDonald adding new vocals. The year 2005 also saw the release of the dance hit "Watch the Sunrise" with Steve Edwards on vocals, along with the formation of the DJ's own label, Axtone. In 2006, he would form the project Supermode with fellow producer Steve Angello, while in 2007 the pair was joined by DJ Sebastian Ingrosso for a DJ set in Ibiza under the name Swedish House Mafia. Two years later the trio signed a major-label recording contract with EMI and made their commercial production debut with the summer 2010 anthem "One," also known as "One (Your Name)" (the latter version featured Pharrell Williams of the Neptunes on vocals). The song was a Top Ten hit in the United Kingdom, Sweden, the Netherlands, and Belgium, and landed on the group's debut album, 2010's Until One. Two years later the group members announced they were breaking up and returning to their solo careers, although only after a farewell tour and the release of their second album, 2012's Until Now. That same year, Axwell's remix of Ivan Gough & Feenixpawl's "In My Mind" turned the track into a smash hit and earned Axwell a Grammy nomination for best remix. He followed it in 2013 with the solo hit "Center of the Universe," along with another collaboration with Ingrosso, the single "Roar." The two DJs officially formed the duo Axwell /\ Ingrosso in 2014, performing at festivals and releasing singles such as "Something New" and "Can't Hold Us Down." 2015 track "Sun Is Shining" was also a huge success, hitting number one on the Swedish singles chart and eventually being certified quadruple platinum. The duo released follow-up single "This Time" that November, with all proceeds donated to charity. These songs were eventually included on the duo's debut, More Than You Know, which arrived in late 2017. The pair later reunited with Angello at Ultra Miami 2018 for a surprise performance as Swedish House Mafia, teasing an official future reunion of the beloved trio. That same year, Axwell also released solo singles "Barricade" and Swedish chart hit "Belong."Swedish House Mafia eventually reunited, performing in 2019 at sites around the world. Their official debut album, Paradise Again, was released in 2022 and included guests such as A$AP Rocky, Sting, Ty Dolla $ign, and the Weeknd, whose "Moth to a Flame" was a Top 10 hit around the world. That same year, additional collaborations with the Weeknd -- "How Do I Make You Love Me?" and "Sacrifice" -- appeared on his album Dawn FM. Axwell's activities with Swedish House Mafia kept him occupied over the next couple years and he returned with a solo track "Until The Lights Go Out" featuring CARMA in 2025.
