Released 18 Years Ago: Supermode (Axwell & Steve Angello) – Tell Me Why

Before becoming part of the supergroup Swedish House Mafia, Axwell and Steve Angello were already making waves in the dance music scene. The close friends frequently collaborated in the studio, appearing on singles such as ‘Get Dumb’ and ‘Leave The World Behind’. However, under the duo name Supermode, they released ‘Tell Me Why’ on July 24, 2006. This track, their only release as Supermode, sampled ‘Why?’ and ‘Smalltown Boy’ by Bronski Beat and quickly became a dance floor anthem.

Axwell, a five-time Grammy-nominated artist, is known for his distinctive sound and significant contributions to the electronic dance music scene. As a member of Swedish House Mafia, he conquered festivals throughout the early 2010s, achieving platinum certifications with albums like ‘Until One’ and ‘Until Now’. As a solo artist, he released consistent hits, including 2008’s ‘What a Wonderful World’, 2012’s remix of ‘In My Mind’, and 2018’s ‘Belong’.

Steve Angello, known for his casual demeanor and dedication to his craft, has earned his “legend” status as a member of Swedish House Mafia. With a discography dating back to 2003, Angello has released and produced multiple hits under various projects and aliases. He continues to receive upwards of 5 million monthly streams, reflecting his enduring influence in the music industry.
