Diesel Music AB

Diesel Music was started in 1989 by three men who decided to take control over their own work - and gain the freedom to create the music they wanted. When they made the decision to form their own record label, Mauro Scocco, Johan Ekelund and Torbjörn Sten were already well established in their careers.

At the beginning of the 90s, Diesel Music came into contact with Lisa Nilsson, whose album "Himlen runt hörnet" was a joint effort in which Scocco wrote the songs and Johan Ekelund contributed as producer and arranger.

Throughout the early 1990s, Diesel Music continued to be restrictive - and successful - in it's releases. Then the firm established a sub-label called Superstudio, which changed its way of working. Created as a type of workshop for quick or experimental productions, Superstudio has release innovative dance music by Koop, John Grobinski's dreamlike electronic film music, as well as Blacknuss, the incredibly popular rhythm collective.
