"Payback" is a collaboration between Angello and Swedish prog house duo (and Size artists) Dimitri Vangelis & Wyman, a pair Angello calls "very talented.""They came through great on this record," he tells THUMP. "We felt from the beginning that this was a big one. It has that special heart coming through."Big indeed. "Payback" has all the hallmarks of Angello's biggest hits - soaring melodic refrains and epic breakdowns - with a forward-looking musical edge too. While he promises the emotional throughline of the single will be found in the rest of the album, the as-yet-untitled LP won't be all in the same musical vein. "I think the album is a pretty versatile record with a lot of inspiration through the whole thing," he explains. "I've tried to capture everything that's moved me throughout the years." Another thing to expect on the Steve Angello solo record: more collaborations. "I love working with people," he admits. "It's not fun to spend too much time in the studio alone. It's like exploring an adventure with people, always a good time.""Payback" is available April 22 through Columbia/Size. !function(a){var b="embedly-platform",c="script";if(!a.getElementById(b)){var d=a.createElement(c);d.id=b,d.src=("https:"===document.location.protocol?"https":"http")+"://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/platform.js";var e=document.getElementsByTagName(c)[0];e.parentNode.insertBefore(d,e)}}(document);
