Size matters!

Ok, I know, I'm reaaaaaally late on this one. But let's just say, it's a review of one of the best CD releases for 2010. After buying the album at Beatport, I got totally inspired by "Size matters" - the latest compilation by Steve Angello and AN21. So inspired, that I immediately had to purchase the CD as well for my collection :D



The music is amazing, not that we expect something else from Steve and his lable. ;)
The release includes 2 CDs:

1. Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano - Snitch
2. Matteo DiMar - F this club
3. Douze & Kris Menace - Lockhead
4. Cirez D - The Tumble
5. Firebeatz & JoeySuki - Hidden Sound
6. Shawnee Taylor, Harry Romero, Alexander Technique & Junior Sanchez - Where you are
7. Tim Berg, Sebastien Drums & Norman Doray - Tweet it
8. Thomas Gold - AGORa
9. Steve Angello - Rave 'n' roll
10. Congorock - Babylon (Steve Angello Edit)
11. Steve Angello - Knas
12. Swedish House Mafia - One (Original Mix)
13. Swedish House Mafia - One (Congorock Remix)
14. Pendulum - The island (Steve Angello, An21, Max Vangeli Remix)
15. Fran & Oliver Koletzki - Hypnotized
16. Ridney & James Talk - Forever (Ramon Tapia Remix)
17. Marco Lys - Mombasa
18. Mark Knight - Sax
19. Sebjack - Bigger (Paul Thomas & Myke Smith Remix)
20. Matteo DiMar feat. Dashka - Blower
21. Dirty Vegas, Ned Shepard & Sultan - Crimson Sun
22. Kim Fai - P.S
23. Ellie Goulding - Starry Eyed (AN21 & max Vangeli Remix)
24. Florence & The Machine - Drumming Song (Boy 8-Bit Remix)
25. Eddie Thoneick & Erick Morillo feat. Shena - Nothing Better (AN21 & Max Vangeli Remix)
26. Gorillaz - On Melancholy Hill (AN21 & Max Vangeli Remix)
27. AN21 & Max Vangeli - Swedish Beauty

Every single track is a bomb. I know, I'm not supposed to say this, but my favourite tracks are definitely "Swedish Beauty" and "The Island" - the most beautiful tracks for 2010!!, followed by "KNAS", "Where you are" & "Nothing Better". It's a pure pleasure to listen to the whole compilation. Big applaude to Steve and Antoine for this one :)

Take One

Ok, so I took my time to write this article, but this is only because I wanted to watch the movie first. Since yesterday, you can watch "Take One" in Germany for free:

The Swedish House Mafia documentary was made by Chistian Larson and is a film about the Swedes, their tour life, their personalities, about their ideas and their music.




I was so touched by this movie, I can't find words to describe how I felt after watching it. And the great thing about the movie is that you get to know the real Seb, Ax & Steve - how they feel about their success and it is so inspirational and cute at the same time to see how nervous the guys were before their first Brixton gig :) The most amazing scene for me was the birth of "One" - the first SHM single. I swear (I probably shouldn't say this :D), I had tears in my eyes, while watching it. The soundtrack makes you so amazingly happy and accompanied by the right scenes, it's just pure PERFECTION.




I can only recommend you to purchase the limited edition of "Until One". It includes the movie itself, the soundtrack "Until One", a book with behind-the-scenes impressions and a vinyl of the "One" and "Miami 2 Ibiza" instrumentals. (can't wait to get my hands on my copy :D)





If you want to be part of the SHM-history, you should get very quickly your credit card and book one of the last 47 tickets (information is from yesterday!!) for the "One Night Only" tour in the UK. The tour was almost sold out in less than a week!!
