You asked for him and we listened; now the Swedish House Mafia's own Axwell will bring his talents to the Hilltop Arena on Saturday, September 4th. Voted "Best House Artist" at Beatport Music Awards 2010, this DJ, remixer, record producer and record label owner from Sweden, maintains a busy international touring schedule, as well as a successful summer residency at Pacha Ibiza.
Axwell's latest single "Nothing But Love" is climbing the top 10 chart at Beatport and the Swedish House Mafia's massive debut single "One (Your Name)" feat Pharrell is a bona fide club anthem of the summer. Their forthcoming, highly anticipated debut artist album - Swedish House Mafia 'Until One' is out this October 2010.
On Saturday, the Main Stage will be headlined by The Chemical Brothers on the heels of their latest release Further, Italian electro favorite Benny Benassi, German trance king ATB, and dancehall bangers Major Lazer. The Hilltop Arena is also headlined by Kaskade supporting his sixth album, Dynasty.
On Sunday, Armin van Buuren returns for a headlining set on the eve of his new artist album Mirage, along with electronic music pioneer Moby, Dutch house sensation Fedde Le Grand, and Berlin's Boys Noize with his mutant techno sound. The Hilltop Arena will be headlined by UK trance trio Above & Beyond with their upcoming album Ajnunabeats Vol 8.
The Red Bull Music Academy Tent will feature Colorado's self-publishing machine Pretty Lights and his electro organic cutting-edge party rocking beats and San Francisco's freeform artist Bassnectar.
