This is the second part of my tribute to the Swedish House Mafia. The first was all songs that were pure Swede magic. This post is all songs of other artists that at least one of the trio remixed. I do hope you enjoy!

Swedish House Mafia

Promiscuous (Axwell Remix) – Nelly Furtado

British Columbia’s sweetheart teamed up with Timbaland to put together this fresh and dirty duet. Axwell took what the pair made and made it dirtier! The once pop tune is suitable for even the after hours clubs with Axwell’s touch. Nelly Furtado caused quite a stir mentioning the MVP Steve Nash in this track, as the sports world was already suspicious about a relationship between the Canadian singer, and the NBA star. They both atest that they are nothing more than friends.

Let it Go (Axwell Remix) – Dirty South

The Australian DJ and producer hash been slowly increasing in popularity, but got lucky when Axwell picked up this track to release it on his label Axtone, with this standout remix. A message of positivity flows through this track with the main vocals repeatedly spreading the valuable advice, “No matter what they say, let it go. Let it go“. Let it go, and dance I say!

Suburban Knights (Angello & Ingrosso Remix)Hard Fi

Now I know this post has been very Axwell heavy, but it’s ok, because the previous post was Angello & Ingrosso heavy, and this song makes up for it. Angello & Angrosso took a pop tune and make it nearly unrecognizable, giving it an epic sound that pulls the listener super thick beats, huge harmanic vocals from Hard Fi, and a beautiful string instrumentations. Plus, you gotta love the cutesy use of the line “These bills keep dropping through my door“. You’d be hard pressed to find one clubber out there who doesn’t think that ‘b’ is a ‘p’!
