Watch Swedish House Mafia Accompany The Weeknd to a Vogue Ball In New Music Video
While a high school gym may not seem like the most natural setting for a club, leave it to The Weeknd to pull it off. Complete with voguish, levitating dancers and a Michael Jackson-esque dance break, a new music video released by the chart-topping crooner is soundtracked by a remixed version of “Sacrifice,” which appears on his new Dawn FM album. Remixers Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso and Steve Angello of Swedish House Mafia dramatically circle in the background as their mystifying rework swirls over the scene.

Electronic Music Pulls the Strings of The Weeknd’s “Dawn FM” Album—With Production From Calvin Harris, Swedish House Mafia
After the release of his hotly anticipated Dawn FM album, it’s clear The Weeknd‘s penchant for dance music is more voracious than ever. The Weeknd has long championed electronic dance music, collaborating with the likes of Gesaffelstein, Daft Punk, and Disclosure, among others. However, Dawn FM twists the knife into this curiosity by presenting the most dance-forward album of his career. And it’s also his most creative yet. The album plays out like a radio station during a late-night drive in the 80s, featuring sultry interludes from Jim Carrey and Quincy Jones. But despite its escapist narrative and lovelorn motifs, at its core, the phantasmagoric Dawn FM was designed for dance parties. The proof is in the pudding. The Weeknd joined forces with disco-pop extraordina...
Swedish House Mafia Unveil Orchestral Rework of 2010 Dance Anthem, “One”
You probably haven’t heard Swedish House Mafia quite like this before. The veteran electronic music trio have joined forces with Swedish compatriot Jacob Mühlrad for “One Symphony,” a classical rework of one of the most prized singles in their discography. Mühlrad, one of the most renowned composers in Scandinavia, has reimagined the generational dance anthem through an orchestral lens. Swedish House Mafia released “One” way back in July 2010, when its inescapable melody helped catapult the group to the upper echelon of electronic music. And the new orchestral arrangement, the group said, harkens back to those days due to the way it was originally composed. “When we first created ‘One’ we created it like an orche...

Swedish House Mafia Announce Recomposition of Breakout Hit, “One”
Nearly 12 years after its release, Swedish House Mafia is giving their breakout hit “One” a makeover in the new year with the help of Swedish composer Jacob Mühlrad. Aptly titled “One Symphony,” the recomposition will serve as a symphonic version of their generational dance anthem.

The rework is due out on January 1st as the group looks to kick off 2022 with a bang. Since it’s release, “One” has seen a handful of notable reworks.
