Go Robyn!
The other day I was reading an articly about Robyn, swedish singer/composer/artist who on her own label now sells more albums in the US thanthe latest release from Madonna. Way to go! It shows what you achieve on your own with iron determination. I just hope she would become a member here as well, hint, hint...
Shoutlet....

Anyone who works in marketing and adressing social media? Probably the hottest topic in marketing anywhere today. I can really recommend everyone interested in this topic to have a look at www.shoutlet.com

We will be taking care of this product and the european customers over here. Anyone interested to find out more, feel free to contact me...

 

Moving offices....
We just moved our offices last week to Skanör a village 30 min outside Malmo. This is the first day up and running. Everything has gone smooth so far but we still have tons of boxes everywhere. Feels great though with a brand new place... expect us to be up to full speed again over the next few days....
Shine a light....
Curious to hear if anyone seen the new Rolling Stones movie by Scorcese yet?
Spring and Eric Gadd...
Spring finally arrived here in Malmö, we had a wonderful weekend and looks like we will have a great day today as well. Just re-discovered an old favourite of mine, swedish artist Eric Gadd. A lot of good memories from Hamburg and Stockholm and his stuff is still going strong. Highly recommended if you feel funky.... :-)
Duende MINI Contest....

We just launched a new contest here at the site, with the first prize being a Duende MINI. It really is a clever little box since it can be upgraded to a full-blown Duende later on. Perfect for productions on the go... Check the contest out if you are interested!

All the best,

Håkan Hellström....

... just released a new album and I am just listening through it, great stuff. Will also have the pleasure to see him live in Gothenburg next weekend together with my wife. I can really recommend him live especially if you like to learn to speak Swedish with a Gothenburg accent :-)

Cheers,

Easter....

I am off for a few days over Easter, I am wishing everyone here a great time and some relaxing days!

 All the best,

 

 

Post Frankfurt...

So, another Frankfurt Musik Messe is over and the hangover and excessive eating  is over. Some of the highlights of the show, imho was:

1. SSL Matrix- Whoa! A complete SSL console and DAW controller for this money is simply too good to be true. Still a lot of money of course but it is an SSL....

2. The new hardware from Steinberg/Yamaha looks very cool indeed. I like the fact that we start seeing proper integration between hardware and software.

3.  The Presonus stuff also looks very cool! Both Monitor station and behind the glass mixer. Jim and friends always makes great gear.

4.  The new Vicoustic stuff, just amazing.

5. SM Pro Audio with VST in a box.

6. I think the biggest secret was the MADI card from SSL in conjunction with Alphalink. Better value for money ina pro system is hard to find. 

 

 

Messe coming up....

Hi there,

 

Next week is Frankfurt Musik messe and I am curious if many of you will attend? We were thinking maybe to arrange a small bar meeting, would be great to see some of you in real life!

 

All the best,

Congratulations to the winners of the Real World Studios Contest!

I would like to be in front and congratulate the winners, The Cedars!

 

Incredible difficult decision, so much great music in different styles and a lot of fun discussions among the jury members. Anyway, I wish you a lot of success, a lot of fun and we will report and  bring all other members on the site in the loop how you are doing at Real World!

Thanks everyone for taking part, hope to see you again in future contests!

 

All the best,

Happy holidays!

I would like to wish everyone here a very Merry christmas and a really happy new year! Thanks for making the site such a great place and I can not wait to see where it will all go during next year!

Take care, have a great time over the weekends and see you soon again, my friends!

New Servers....

I am very happy we finally are up and running on new faster servers, this opens the door for new improvements on the site. Please let us know if you find anything unusual going on now in the beginning.

 

Here in Sweden there is "Lucia" today. That's when blonde girls wear candles in their hair, sings ballads and the rest of us get filled up  on pastries with saffron and raisins and drink gallons of  "gloegg", wine,spices and a  just a hint of vodka. Did I mention we are a bit weird? :-)

Cheers,

 

 

London calling...

Hi there,

Just got back from a long weekend in London mixing business meeting with pleasure (as always in London). It really is a great city, you just need to navigate the horros of Heathrow... Had some slow connections to the site from over there, anyone else having problems now with the site being slow?

All the best,

 

Stockholm

Sitting at Malmö airport watching the sun go up, looks like it will be a beautiful day! On my way to Stockholm. A day full of meetings regarding new product introductions next year, the development of this site as well as other bits and pcs regarding IT and logistics for MI7. Did I mention I have the best job in the world? :-)

 I am curious, did anyone here try the new Amazon Kindle just yet???

 

Cheers,

Winter...

...is now coming to Malmö, a very cold morning here today.

Sorry for the silence  over the last couple of weeks, been doing some extensive travelling.

Looks like everyone is releasing new products at the same time this year, I am curious to hear what everyone thinks about their new Reason 4, Live 7, Cubase 4.1, Nuendo 4, Duet etc. Please add your thoughts to the review section and help others tto understand what products you like, or do not like!

All the best,

Home again

Home again from New York and AES, what a great city and actually a really good show! Good to be back but leaving tomorrow again....

 

Cheers,

NYC

Hi there,

Just about to head out for the AES show in NYC. Really looking forward to meet all friends and of course the city in itself. Also curious to see what's new in the industry of course. Anything making life easier and not more complicated for us would be nice.

BTW, NYC is one of my absolute favourite cities... never misses out when I get the chance.

 Flying over London, wonder if I have any luggage when I land? :-)

Nuendo 4

Hi all,

Just got a proper demo of Nuendo 4 and it looks very impressive for the post people. I am curious to hear if we have any beta testers on the site and if you can write up some product reviews so we get your take on it...

 

Cheers,

Flu...

Back in the office after a long and tedious flu that kept me in bed for later part of last week and over the weekend. Excellent to be back but what an autumn weather we got here, seriously considering moving the office to Lissabon :-)

 Can't wait to get my hands on the new Apoge Duet which looks like an amazing little pcs. Well done Apogee. Wonder what else might pop up at the coming AES show in a few weeks time?
