Get to know the artist

Alesso is Stockholm-born producer Alessandro Lindblad. His catalogue joins melodic festival dance music with vocal pop collaborations, including Calling with Sebastian Ingrosso and Ryan Tedder, Heroes (We Could Be) with Tove Lo, and Words with Zara Larsson. Remixes helped establish his early profile before his own productions became a major part of his catalogue.

Heroes (We Could Be), Remedy and Let Me Go introduce the established catalogue. Surrender with Becky Hill brings a trance influence, while Inside Our Hearts with Martin Garrix and Shaun Farrugia offers another vocal-led entry point.

Sources & how to read this

Source: Apple Music · archive sample

These are officially published mixes. They may be edited or shorter than the live performance; the comparisons describe the published selections.

Percentages describe the sampled selections, not artistic quality or mixing skill. Unidentified tracks do not establish a rare selection.

Comparison artists: Alok, Armin van Buuren, Hardwell, Martin Garrix, Steve Aoki, Swedish House Mafia.

  • Cohort: Official published event mixes. Selected window: 2023-10-14 to 2025-10-12 (730 days inclusive).
  • Each counted official published mix was checked for its complete published track listing, at least 80% fully identified visible music rows and 10 unique identified track/remix names. A complete published mix does not establish an unedited or complete live performance. One source date counts once per DJ.
  • 1 in-window source records were excluded for incompleteness, coverage, unique-track minimum, or a repeated performance date.
  • Source observations checked through 2026-10-16. This is a dated sample, not a live feed or a complete history.
  • Matching uses reviewed canonical credited artist, title and version keys, independent of platform. Aliases require manual review; unspecified versions are not certified originals and are not merged with named remixes. Ambiguous components stay unknown. Identified mashup/layer components count as selections; only explicitly established main-track order contributes transitions. A source row counts as identified only when every component is identified.
  • Set overlap averages pairwise Dice: 200 times shared unique selections divided by the combined unique-selection counts. Repeat order counts identified adjacent main-record pairs occurring in at least two distinct sets, divided by all such pair occurrences.
  • Unknown tracks are excluded from identity comparisons, never treated as rare. These metrics do not measure mixing skill, crowd response or artistic quality.
  • Archive sample: this explicitly selected comparison spans up to two years of officially published live mixes. It describes this historical sample, not the artist's current style. All own and peer comparisons use the same dated archive window. The archive includes festival and arena shows; different settings and set lengths can change the measured overlap.
  • Dates use published mix date; publication dates must not be read as confirmed performance dates.
