 Notes  
     Producer born and raised in Vasteras, Sweden. Based in Stockholm since
     2015. Previously, between 1997-2015, in Gothenburg. In 1991 Embee founded
     Looptroop (now Looptroop Rockers) together with Promoe and has been
     responsible for the group's production and music ever since as music
     producer. Since 1998, Embee is running the record label David vs Goliath
     together with the other members of Looptroop Rockers.
     A large number of records have been created in his songwriting and music
     production studio The Wax Cabinet through the years; from the first noisy
     cassettes in Looptroops early days to the Swedish Grammy Award-winning
     debut album "Tellings From Solitaria". This is where he produced his 2010
     solo-album "The Mellow Turning Moment", with lots of new collaborations
     with vocalists. The band Skuggpoeten (Embee and Esmeralda Moberg) released
     "Skuggpoeten" in 2010, an urban folk music album with lyrics from the
     poetry book "Dikter Fran Varldens Mitt Med Omnejd", by Roger Bergkvist.
     Two years in a row, Embee has been awarded Best Producer at the Swedish
     Hiphop Awards solidifying his standing as a music producer. He also won the
     Swedish DeeJay Awards in 2004 and 2006. The debut solo album "Tellings From
     Solitaria" was in the making for over two years. Its a very versatile and
     widely appealing album that touches many fields on the musical map. It
     features fine guests like Jose Gonzalez, Timbuktu, Vanessa Liftig, Daniel
     Lemma, Looptroop and Reinis Zarins Jazz Quartet.
     The most successful single off the album is "Send Someone Away", which is
     featured on various compilations worldwide and gained a lot of recognition,
     mainly in the UK, Australia and Scandinavia. A remake of the song is
     featured on Jose Gonzalez album "In Our Nature" (Imperial Records, 2007).
     The tour schedule for Looptroop has been infinite since 1998. They have
     touched down in nearly all European countries, USA, Canada, Japan,
     Australia, Russia and South Africa. The response has been overwhelming all
     over the world; in front of 500 people at The Roxy in LA or on the main
     stage at the Splash Festival in front of 20.000.
     Embee have also done many shows as a solo artist and DJ. In 2006 he did a
     tour in China together with Vanessa Liftig, Timbuktu and a seven-man band.
     A long-lasting tour of Tokyo nightclubs was carried out over a five month
     period in 2007, when Embee did appearances as a DJ at a dozen of well-known
     venues throughout the city. The Japan-stay made a strong mark in the career
     with lots of new connections and also some skills in the japanese language
     after months of studying. The period in Tokyo has already resulted in work
     for japanese acts and labels like Antennasia, DJ Nomak, Plaza &  P-Vine.
     Embee's influences are vast and varied. Music-wise youll find them in
     soul, jazz and hiphop but also in pop, rock and electronic dance music. He
     is also a dedicated jogger and it might not have been a coincidence that he
     was the man behind the underground-classic "Long Distance Runner" by Promoe
     back in 2004. Some of the tracks he did for Promoe are "Songs Of Joy"
     (feat. Capleton), "In The Morning" (feat. Daville) and "Euro Trash" (feat.
     Leeroy of Saian Supa Crew).
     Embee has produced, remixed and written songs on a freelance-basis for a
     long list of artists and is constantly looking for new challenges besides
     Looptroop Rockers and the solo-career. One excursion is the mixtape-CD Mash
     Hits that was released in 2006 and contains remixes and rearrangements of
     hit songs from various artists from the 70's up 'til now.
     In April 2008 Looptroop Rockers released their fourth full-length album
     entitled "Good Things", thru Bad Taste Records. As usual all the music is
     written by music producer Embee. The album marks a new era for Looptroop
     musically with lots of new expressions and a singing producer and has been
     critically acclaimed worldwide. This was followed up with "Professional
     Dreamers" in 2011 on the same label.
     Embee has continued to do the music production of Looptroop Rockers with
     two releases on Sony Music: "Mitt Hjarta Ar En Bomb" (2013) and "Naked
     Swedes" (2014). Looproop Rockers' "Motivation Music" was released in 2018
     on the record label David Vs Goliath. The appreciation of Embees
     accomplishments was solidified in perpetuity when he was inducted to the
     Swedish Music Hall of Fame in 2017, together with his fellow band members
     in Looptroop Rockers. This is an honor given to a select few who have made
     a significant and lasting impact on Swedish music.
     Props to the group that ripped this album when it came out.
