Steve Angello: A Night in the Life

Love the King and I’m happy Opening Ceremony brought him back. Great T-Shirts.

My mother always brings gifts for my children – and some for me to once in awhile. Here, my wife Isabel and I are holding custom made Converse for my kids and in my left hand my only addiction- SNUS, It’s Swedish tobacco (my fix).

Leaving the hotel and ready to hit the streets of NYC. It's showtime!

Always a little confused getting out of the hotels – we have way too many cars and I had no idea which one to choose.

My mom has a weird addiction with Crocs. I know … Crocs! I found a picture of a really funny Friday the 13th mockup edition of Crocs that I had to share.

Just arriving in Central Park for the second show. At that moment I'm probably spotting a million cameras – not that it's paparazzi but we're having everything documented and they’re everywhere.

Arriving to the backstage area to relax and meet with friends before the show.

A friend of mine made a painting of me and its really beautiful. He's extremely talented! Now my kids have me on the wall when I'm gone.

Another look at the painting – it really made my night!

We just launched an organic Swedish Vodka that I'm proudly showing my crew. They all LOVED it – Happy Days!

Posing with some friends. They're tall and I'm not the tallest man in the world, so I thought a chair would make it equal!

A moment with my crew backstage. Meet Seb Webber. He's co-manager for the other artists on the label …and is single!

Talking backstage, you'll see the set times for the night, and me, with the King and my Camo Nike's.

Backstage closing my eyes gathering power while my tour manager Ben – best dressed in the business – runs through tonight's schedule with me.

I have a little moment before I go on stage – no one next to me, no one talking, just me, the sound, the flashing lights, the crowd noise. I do this on every show. It’s my last breath before I get on the stage.

You see a happy me & Ryan Marciano (who along with DJ partner Sunnery James played right before me). Notice my confused assistant, Leonard in the background!

Start of my show – this is probably six minutes in to it. I have my signature lasers and we’re getting the party going.

I loved this show. It's not the biggest but it's one of the shows that means a lot to me. It's something special – our own little festival – and it's NYC at its best!

Me and my closest NYC friends partying in Central Park. What an experience!

Showing my appreciation to the crowd. I always like to climb up on the decks. When I started doing that 10 years ago people thought I was nuts!

Moment with my wife Isabel, Leonard and Jade (Business Manager) after the show looking at pictures from the previous night.

Leaving the stage for the last time in Central Park. Thanking everyone involved and it's a little emotional. Sad that it's over.

On my way to the studio. I love NYC around midnight and I needed my little tourist moment and a gasp of "fresh" air before getting in to creative mode.

Arriving at the studio. It's time to let loose and be creative, I've spent 20 hours a day in this room for the last five days.

Talkboxing! Mike Dean & Junior Sanchez in the background.

This is one thing I do almost every day – I eat NOBU. It’s the best food in the world. Laughing with the guys because we probably made some funny joke about the amount of food we've ordered!

This is where the magic happens – everyone is focused! Me in the middle, Mike Dean on the right and Junior on the left. Creativity can’t be ordered or scheduled. THIS is the moment, this is music, this is what we all live for!
