Будущий основатель шведской "техно"-группы "E-Type" Martin Eriksson родился в 1965г в городе Уппсала. Его музыкальная карьера началась довольно рано, но только в 1991г к нему пришла первая популярность. Выпущенные им 3 сингла привели его на одну из самых известных шведских TV-станций, однако очередной соло-сингл "I'm falling" (1993) опять не имел большого успеха. Настоящий успех пришёл год спустя, когда на него обратили внимание такие известные шведские продьюсеры как Denniz Pop, Max Martin и Amadin. Летом 1994 вышла их первая совместная работа - композиция "Set the world on fire", которая взлетела в шведских чартах и стала золотой.

А следующий сингл "This is the way" был №1 в чарте продаж. В ноябре 1994 вышел одноимённый дебютный альбом, ставший №2 в Швеции. Помимо двух уже упомянутых песен отдельными синглами с этого альбома были реализованы также композиция
"Russian lullaby" и баллада "Do you always (have to be alone)". Женские партии в композициях "E-Type" исполняли такие скандинавские вокалистки как Therese Lof и Linda Andersson, бэк-вокал обеспечивали Martina Edoff и Anni Krats-Gutto.
Более интересная биография с сайта http://www.e-type.se/ Martin ’E-Type’ Eriksson has been known to a wide audience for a long time. It all started in 1991 when E-Type’s debut single, "We've got the atmosphere", a collaboration with Stakka Bo, was released. The single climbed directly to the top of the Swedish charts. During the following year, E-Type became a well known figure in the Swedish entertainment world as a popular television host, film soundtrack composer and a song writer for several Swedish artists.
In 1994, the solo career took off when E-Type, together with the producers Denniz Pop and Max Martin (Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, Celine Dion, among others), began to work on material for the debut album, "Made In Sweden".In the summer of 1994, the first result of the collaboration, the single, "Set The World On Fire", climbed the Swedish charts. The follow-up single, "This Is The Way", like its predecessor, also became a Gold selling record. The debut album, "Made In Sweden", was released in November 1994.The Swedish successes of 1994 were rewarded by three well deserved awards at the Swedish Dance Music Awards.
Following these successes, Europe began to show increased interest in the Swedish Platinum seller. The singles, "Set The World On Fire" and "This Is The Way", both entered the French and German Charts during 1995. During the Spring of 1996, the USA club scene became increasingly familiar with E-Type through "This Is The Way", which performed very well in the Billboard Club Chart. E-Type’s second album, "The Explorer", was released in September 1996 and was also produced by Denniz Pop and Max Martin. The album has yielded no fewer than five successful singles.
E-Types third album, "Last Man Standing", was released in November 1998 and in the Summer and Autumn of 1998, E-Type enjoyed even more success with the release of the singles, "Angels Crying" and "Here I Go Again". The following album "Euro IV Ever" also was a big success, with singles like "Life" and "Africa" doing well on the charts. Let's hope that the album released in the spring of 2004 will be even more successful.
