Axwell Shocks Fans By Announcing His Retirement

Swedish producer and DJ Axwell has shocked the EDM community by announcing his retirement. In a press release earlier today the former Swedish House Mafia member confirmed that he will step away from the music industry at the end of the summer.

Axel Christofer Hedfors (Axwell) said, ‘I once had a real passion for music but that is gone now. The Swedish House Mafia was my life and I loved Sebastian (Ingrosso) and Steve (Angelo), unfortunately they did not feel the same and when I announced my feelings to them the dynamic in the group changed and before long we had split.’

Since the group seperated in March this year Axwell has been seen walking around his home town, Lund, crying and asking random people if they had seen his former band members. His family have also expressed concern about his mental health as he has repeatedly locked himself in his room, only communicating through strange noises.

His press release read, ‘I have come to the conclusion that music is no longer for me. I feel it is time to move on and pursue the other great passion in my life, which is making animal noises. I have been working very hard lately and I am lucky to be in the position where I can follow my dreams.’

Axwell is said to be a very accomplished animal impersonator and has already made cameo appearances on a number of children’s TV programs, where he has played an otter, a horse and most recently a marmot. He also plans to open an academy where children interested in making animal noises can go and learn to mimic animals in a safe environment.
