A set 20 years in the making.
@swedishhousemafia at
@ultra 2026 was the trio’s magnum opus.
With music spanning the entire careers of
@axwell ,
@sebastianingrosso and
@steveangello , they showed off the hits that made them legends while proving they haven’t missed a step after all this time.
Ingrosso and Angello started with their intro edit of the 2010 SHM classic MIAMI 2 IBIZA into an ID edit of the track and it was clear 5 minutes into the set that they would be taking us through EDM history starting with DJs on the forefront of the ever evolving scene like
@mph_uk . He came out and dropped Flex It right away to show everyone that he could be taking on the Main Stage by himself pretty soon. Seeing MPH with 50,000 people watching felt like a full circle moment. I’ve been saying he’ll be hitting headliner status in no time and he proved he could do it in the 10 minutes he got with SHM.
After MPH,
@kellyleeowens ,
@boysnoize ,
@afrojack , and
@armandvanhelden rotated through the stage with Ingrosso and Angello continuing the journey through EDM with Angello’s unreleased version of Where’s Your Head At, Boys Noize’s remix of Fine Day Anthem,
@gigamesh ’s remix of Everything In Its Right Place, Pon De Floor (what a throwback), Bonkers and You Don’t Know Me, all leading up to the appearance of Axwell and
@ericprydz .
When Prydz appeared on stage the energy at the festival changed, it was a historic moment to get the OG Swedish House Mafia back on stage and everyone knew it. Starting with Turn On The Lights into Pjanoo into Leave The World Behind, it was a mashup of SHM and Prydz history with the track that keeps the kids knowing their legendary status. These tracks sum up the night, the classics that proved SHM and Prydz from the late 2000s mixed with one of the most popular songs of the last few years that SHM co-produced.
As Axwell said many times (him on the mic is an integral part of an SHM and he was on it all night) it was all love at Ultra. They showed their love for the classics while showing they’re still on the forefront of EDM. If you didn’t like the set, I’m sorry to say you just didn’t understand it
