In late 2008, Sebastian Ingrosso, Steve Angello, and Axwell formed the Swedish House Mafia with Eric Prydz not joining, saying he is a control freak and cannot abide with collaborations even with close friends. Around this time Swedish House Mafia released two songs, \"Get Dumb\" and \"Leave the World Behind\", however these weren't credited under the group name. Ingrosso himself collaborated with David Guetta on the songs \"Everytime We Touch\" and \"How Soon is Now\" for Guetta's albums Pop Life and One Love respectively. In 2009 Ingrosso made his debut on the DJ Mag top 100 DJs, charting at number 25, the highest new entry that year. In 2010, he released his debut album with Swedish House Mafia named Until One. This followed the release of two success single \"One (Your Name)\" (featuring Pharrell Williams) and \"Miami 2 Ibiza\" (featuring Tinie Tempah). The album also contained solo work by Sebastian Ingrosso such as the songs \"Kidos\" and \"Meich\", plus his remix of \"Silvia\" by Miike Snow. In addition, Ingrosso made his Tomorrowland debut with Swedish House Mafia and achieved his peaked positions on the DJ Mag poll at number 10 while Swedish House Mafia debuted at number 23.\n

Following the break up Ingrosso returned to his solo music and the song \"Reload\", adding in the vocals of favourite collaborator John Martin and renaming the song to \"Reload (Take My Hand)\".
