Angello was born to a Greek father and Swedish mother in Athens, Greece. His father was killed when Steve was a teenager. A life in Stockholm, Sweden and music took the better of him. He started out as a Turntablist, fusing hip-hop, breakbeats and 70's classics but later moved onto House music, in the club life of Stockholm, together with his best friend Sebastian Ingrosso.
Steve Angello's claim to fame came when he released his remix of Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams" in late 2004. Since then he has exploded onto the house music scene. In 2007 his eternal club banger, a remix of Robin S "Show Me Love" was released on Data Records.
Angello produces under several different aliases. On his own, he has called himself Who's Who and released tracks called "Not So Dirty" and "Sexy Fuck". He often works closely with his childhood friend Sebastian Ingrosso on many projects. Aside from DJing together, they have also produced under the names Buy Now, Fireflies, General Moders, Mode Hookers, Outfunk, and The Sinners. Most recently, they released "Bodycrash" under their Buy Now alias, sampling the 1978 disco hit "Let's All Chant" by the Michael Zager Band. The track was first played by Pete Tong on his Radio 1 show in late 2007. Eventually, the Dirty South remix of the tune leaked out onto the Internet in January 2008. The track has since received a much larger release via Positiva Records, also including the Laidback Luke remix.
He has produced with Eric Prydz under the name A&P Project. Also, he has created a track with his friend Axwell under the name Supermongo, later renamed Supermode. They made a cover of an old Bronski Beat track, calling it Tell Me Why. This was released via Ministry of Sound's Data Records imprint in summer 2006.
Steve Angello's productions can mainly be classified as house (Summer Noize), progressive house (Yeah), Tech house (Partouze) and electro house (Raining Again). He also owns his own record label, Size Records.
Angello's brother, Antoine Josefsson is also a DJ and producer who goes by the alias AN21. Together they have released the tracks Valodja, Flonko & Swing N Swoosh.
As well as releasing tracks through Subliminal, Data Records, Cr2 and Refune, Steve Angello is owner and founder of Size Records based in Stockholm, Sweden. Through Size he has released singles such as Gypsy, Isabel and Flonko to name a few. Size also represents artists such as Funkagenda, Kim Fai, Veerus, Thomas Gold, Third Party and Maxie Devine.
Nothing Scares Me Anymore
Steve Angello Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Brings the thieves at night
Don't know if I'll see the morning light
It's hard to resist then when he was here
Easy to, easy to get swept in
I found my place in the great design
Now I see the way that the humble ride
It's hard to know you're low when you think you're high
We're living in a fucked up paradise
Hate to say I've been fooled all this time
If I don't get out of here alive
At least you'll always know I really tried
Go ahead and take your aim
I refuse to fight your war
Go over the threats you made
Nothing scares me anymore
Nothing scares me anymore
Nothing scaring, nothing scaring me
Nothing scaring, nothing scaring me
Nothing scaring, nothing scaring me
Nothing scares me anymore
Life, life
We're living in a fucked up paradise
Hate to say I've been fooled all this time
If I don't get out of here alive
At least you'll always know I really tried
Go ahead and take your aim
I refuse to fight your war
Go over the threats you made
Nothing scares me anymore
Nothing scares me anymore
Nothing scaring, nothing scaring me
Nothing scaring, nothing scaring me
Nothing scaring, nothing scaring me
Nothing scares me anymore
The lyrics to Steve Angello's "Nothing Scares Me Anymore" featuring Sam Martin convey a sense of defiance in the face of fear and adversity. The opening lines suggest that even something as seemingly worthless as fool's gold can bring danger in the darkness. The singer is unsure if they will make it to the morning light, indicating that they may be in a dangerous or uncertain situation. It is easy to get swept away by negative influences, as the singer acknowledges in the second verse. However, they have found their place in the great design, and now see how humble people ride through life. It can be hard to recognize when one is low in a reckless life, but it is important to try and see the way out.
The chorus emphasizes the theme of fearlessness, with the singer stating that nothing scares them anymore. The second verse emphasizes the idea that the world is a messed up paradise, and the singer regrets being fooled for so long. However, even if they do not make it out alive, they want to be remembered as someone who tried their best. The singer refuses to fight someone else's war and will not be intimidated by threats. In the end, nothing is scaring them anymore, and they are ready to face whatever comes their way.

From joy, me too. :)
This music video is surprising to me, in that it is not only amazingly well done symbolism for the music, but that it actually informs and improves my appreciation for the song as well.
My interpretation of it is that she's looking for herself across the beautiful yet gouged and damaged landscape of her life, the features of which dwarf her. Before the sun sets (on her life), she manages to find and truly embrace herself, and as her own newfound ally, races to the precipice of the present moment in her life to wave her black flag, the opposite of surrendering, announcing herself as ready to stand and fight for herself if necessary. For an album that involves a journey of self-discovery and self-love, I think this is a beautiful climax. The lyrics and their timing coincident with the video also add dimension to this ("I refuse to fight your war.", etc.)
PS - And I just found the video for "Dopamine", which uses the same setting and actresses. Now I have some research to do. :)
PPS - After watching the "Dopamine" video, it all still seems to fit. The protagonist in the "Dopamine" video is her natural child self (as evidenced by the similarities in garb and appearance, but much looser-fitting clothing). She is abandoned and alone, wandering in despair without seeking anything or anyone. Then she's found by her adult self in the last part of the video, under the same sunset, which they then run from together.

@iknowyoubetter2028
Yes so epic
A bit of sadness and hope
Difficult to explain
@dougxvale
This song reminds me of Avicii... weird and the sad thing is that he died two days after this jam was released. RIP
@jpmantero
This track is so perfect. It deserves billions of views. I remember when I first heard it in the Tomorrowland 2017 streaming. I really loved it with Brandon Flowers' vocals. I hope Steve will use them in another track
