If you’re ever in the mood for jaw-dropping electronic music, turn your attention to Hakan Lidbo, who was recently awarded as one of the 100 best producers of electronic music in the world by Urb Magazine. Lidbo has 10 years of experiences as a pop and dance music producer – most techno/house. He has also managed Swedish record labeles such as MNW Dance and Left < > Right Recordings. His discography consists of more than 150 records that range from avant garde to clean-cut vocal pop/house.
In the past, Hakan has made music for commercials, film, television shows, computer games, and a ballet – just to give you an idea of his musical scope.
In an interview with Montreal Mirror, Lidbo explains how he got into electronic music in the first place:
“Not when I was a kid, but I think some of the reasons I began producing music with electronic equipment were pretty much the same reasons you wanted to be an astronaut - you get to wear really cool clothes and work with high-tech, rocket-type things. When I first saw Kraftwerk and Yello play, I was blown away because I thought that it was amazing to be able to work with these computers and machines with knobs. And you know, for me, to have a job where you feel very cool is pretty important.”
