"We focus on the illusion because giving away how it's done instantly shuts down the sense of excitement and innocence." Their first nomination came in in 1998, while their first two wins came in 2009 for "Harder Better Faster Stronger" and Alive 2007. Most recently, the duo collaborated with The Weeknd on two songs of his Starboy album, including the title track and "I Feel It Coming." In total, the group released four studio albums. Close
