Celebrating A Decade Of ‘Under Control’ By Alesso & Calvin Harris!

In 2013, the electronic dance music universe witnessed the convergence of two titans in their prime, resulting in what many consider one of the standout tracks of the year. The Swedish sensation, Alesso, and the Scottish musical maestro, Calvin Harris, joined forces in the studio for the very first time to create a progressive gem that would etch its name in the annals of EDM history – ‘Under Control.’ As we celebrate the 10th anniversary of this iconic collaboration, it’s impossible not to be captivated by the lasting impact of this anthem.

Released on the 7th of October in 2013, ‘Under Control’ has since become a monumental success, amassing over 500 million streams and captivating the hearts of music lovers worldwide. This track perfectly encapsulated the creative synergy between Alesso and Calvin Harris, blending their individual musical prowess into a harmonious masterpiece that continues to ignite dance floors and festival stages.

Hailing from Sweden, Alesso quickly made a name for himself, headlining renowned festivals like Tomorrowland and Ultra Music Festival. On the other side, Scotland’s Calvin Harris has enjoyed a prolific career spanning five albums. From his debut ‘I Created Disco’ to chart-topping hits, he’s continuously pushed musical boundaries.

As we celebrate the 10th anniversary of ‘Under Control,’ we not only honor this timeless collaboration but also the enduring legacies of Alesso and Calvin Harris. Their musical synergy reminds us of the magic that happens when visionary artists unite, leaving an indelible mark on the world of music.
