Is Max mostly working out of Stockholm?

[Axel]

hi folks
I was wondering.. with everyone saying that you need to be in the States for really getting to work with the big guns, does Max still operate out of Stockholm mostly? I'm aware Maratone is there, but do the artists fly in or does he "simply" write the songs with studio singers, sends the song to a producer who then records the song somewhere in the States? Considering he and Shellback do both produce and write, I was wondering if Max really mostly is in Stockholm or anywhere in the States.

does anyone know how I have to imagine the process?

i think it depends on who he's working with...I know
that if he writes together with Luke they do most of
the stuff at Conway in Hollywood, but I'm sure he does
a lot of the actuall writing in his own Studio in Stockholm...

[Rebecca]

yeah, I agree with Dominik, I think he mainly works in Stockholm but then goes to LA to work with Dr Luke for say a big artist like Britney.

I've also noticed in some songs credits that say the song is recorded in Stockholm and the vocals recorded in LA. So maybe that's when the artist is too busy to travel.
Avril Lavigne went to Stockholm though.

When Britney performed in Denmark in the summer 2009, she went straight to Stockholm afterwards to record "3" the day after.

I know Savan, Rami, Carl, and Kristian are all in Stockholm and have been for a while now. They have visa issues going on and don't know when they'll be returning to L.A. So if BSB want's to work with them they have to fly to Stockholm...

[Rebecca]

oh wow, I didn't realise that Rami would be back in Stockholm now, I thought he'd be in LA for good, I didn't think about visa issues. good they're all back in Stockholm.

Rami, Carl and Steve Angello resides in A Side Productions old location at Svartensgatan 8. With other words, Kinglet Studios have moved from L.A. to Stockholm. A Side is now located at Tavastgatan, a few minutes away from there.

[Axel]

just curious: where do you know this from? that they have visa problems etc... ? does anyone of you know them personally?

[olsen87]

This is interesting because I know that Kristian Lundin was in LA back in May 2011 but it's great if they're now back in Sweden.

[nznexus]

dr luke said that max martin has a recording-songwriting room, or producing studio in LA.

thats what i heard.

[pete729]

I heard they have a mirror studio in L.A.

[AdamKhan]

Carl and Savan are in LA/ Hollywood actually. Carl and his wife moved over living in hollywood hills.

[turnaround]

Oh interesting. I thought Savan lived in Stockholm.

I guess he travels a lot as he is involved in so many different songwriting teams anyway.

Anyone remembers the very cool studio pictures of the Maratone studio? Anyone has current pictures of the studio?

Where does Shellback mostly work?

[Feelgoodlies]

Kristian lives in LA actually, Kristina Maria usually writes she is recording with Kristian in L.A.

[AdamKhan]

Yes i thought Savan was Swedish but he's an American
