Fever Ray producer Christoffer Berg takes us inside his stunning Gothenburg studio

Published on Aug 30, 2018 FACTmagazine

"A synth haven in the heart of Sweden.

Christoffer Berg may not be a familiar name but you’ve most likely heard his work: as well production and engineering for Depeche Mode, he’s worked extensively with both The Knife and Fever Ray.

We were given the opportunity to visit his Gothenburg studio and jumped at the chance, having heard rumors of his one-of-a-kind synth collection, which includes one of the very first synthesizers made in Europe.

Christoffer also took us next door into Svenska Grammofon Studion, a famous recording space that counts Foals, The Hives and Jose Gonzales among the artists who have made music inside it."

Arcade Sounds with the Moots (DFAM, Mother-32 & Freqbox)

Published on Aug 30, 2018 HardtekStudios

"Moog! Please don't take our Moogerfoogers away!
This jam I am getting some hard & nasty classic arcade sounds by routing the Moog Mother-32 thru the Moogerfooger Freqbox. The Moog DFAM is providing a sides scrolling drum sequence for the arcade sounds to crackle against. Lots of patches cables run between the M-32 & DFAM and the M-32 is using it's Envelope and LFO to further modulate the Freqbox! If you like what the Freqbox is doing here, then snatch one up as soon as you can, because Moog Music and announced the discontinuation of the entire Moogerfooger line."
