GAFFA - FROM ROUGH DIAMOND TO POLISHED HIT MAKER
Many people raised their eyebrows when Darin was one of the participants in last years’ Så Mycket Bättre. A cat among the ermines - or more a youngster among the rockers. What many don't know is that Darin the latest years has ran before everyone, both commercially and creatively. GAFFA found out what really happened.

JIM BEANZ is a typical American super producer in leather jacket and sunglasses who always tweets in caps-lock. Of course he has worked with Timbaland. Last winter Darin hung out in his studio in Philadelphia and wrote his new album Exit.He doesn't have that much on the songs, he chooses his sounds very good. Which I like, it feels very fresh.
Still it sounds as great as it would have been as much sound as possible, he says.
Darin uses English adjectives approximately as much as the media people did on ZTV in the beginning of the 90’s, there are much "vibe", "style" and "feeling". In a studio in Hammarby Sjöstad, he changes sweater while his assistants feeds him with candy and takes some Instagram-teasers for the fans. He looks tired, says that he has been up since 6 o’clock and "started working right away". It's afternoon, he waits for emails about changes of the mastering/recordings and tells us about what it was like to record with some of the world's greatest producers, like Jim Beanz.
We started with going out and have dinner. Me, him and my manager. Then we went to the studio, hung out a little and talked. He had a pretty big studio, two houses, so he did a round tour and we played some billiard. Then we started out. I switched from being in his studio in Philadelphia to sessions in New York in one week. He was very nice to work with, most of them were.
I was in Los Angeles for 3-4 weeks, where there were different studios. Sacha Skarbek had one, the Jackie Boyz had one. Sacha showed me a piano and said "this is the piano that Adele did Someone Like You on", then he started playing on it.

MANY HATERS
When Darin during 2012 was in the tv shows Så Mycket Bättre and Tack För Musiken, two productions where music veterans will tell about downs, drugs and number one's Darin was in a strange context. The ones who were busy with other things in the 00's missed when Darin went from being only an Idol participant to becoming one of Sweden's best hit makers who'll release his sixth album.
I haven't just had positive feedback. Especially not in the beginning. That was something I thought was hard, but it is also something that made me stronger. I have always just gone on. And that's probably what it's like for everyone when you get famous, that you don't only get positive response.

TRASHED HIS OWN ALBUM
The background to the new album and the cooperation with american producers costs. Darin chose to trash his new album completely - to start over. To Aftonbladet he said last fall that he hadn't felt bad that the album wasn't good enough, but "when it comes to the music I am a perfectionist. It has to work out. Now the international market is important to me".
There were many good songs there too. But it didn't feel like the right style for me right now. It was a tough decision, but I started over. Then I signed a publishing company deal with BMG Chrysalis. Which was completely right in time because then I could go over to the USA and write with people over there.
A publishing company deal in the music business means that he now takes a big step to also becoming a frequent songwriter to others. He has already cooperated with Max Martin, RedOne, Jörgen Elofsson and Billy Mann, but now he gets more international. Darin, who has won both Swedish Grammys, Rockbjörnar (Swedish music awards) and had songs at number 1 on the top charts and platinum sellings, seems satisfied.
I went down to their main office in Berlin and had a meeting. I said that I wanted to work with them and them, and then they fixed that, he says.
In a press release Thomas Schrerer at BMG says that "Darin isn't just a fantastic pop artist but also a talented songwriter for these times music in different genres" and that they look forward to promoting him as a songwriter and artist in
Europe, USA and Asia.
- My favorite album so far, and it feels good to say, is the new one. Jim Beanz has cooperated a lot with Timbaland and I have listened to Nelly Furtado much, among others. I wanted to do something in that style but 2013, says Darin.
