John Dahlback is further testament to the theory that when it comes to overly talented musical homelands, there could indeed be something in Sweden’s water. Born in 1985 in a small village near Stockholm, he landed his first record deal aged just 15 while most of his peers were just discovering clubs. Now 22, he’s already the proud owner of a label, has a string of well-known productions to his name and a reputation for quietly turning out some of the best house melodies you could hope to hear.

With a family background boasting more music than the Von Trapps it’s no surprise he was instantly hooked – his mum sings in a jazz band, his dad drummed in a prog rock band, and various aunts and uncles played piano, guitar and more, so he was hardly stuck for inspiration or opinions to help him get started. Learning the basics on his dad’s Atari computer he soon established his own style, and his second demo, a jazz-influenced, deep house number called Night Flash, earned him a record deal with Route 33. His next 12”, Music So Sweet, found a home on Deep4Life, but with the releases coming thick and fast John decided to set up his first label with his cousin, Jesper. The pair found acclaim as Hugg & Pepp, and John’s productions established him as a name to be reckoned with. In 2010 John started a new label called Mutants.

In the meantime John returned to his first love 'U-Boot' on which he already released 'Out There' featuring Basto! and a Hugg & Pepp track 'Sweet Rosie' which were both club hits and even made it to national radios across Europe and the UK.

'Come Undone' is his brand new track on U-Boot which he wrote together with Tommy Trash and the lovely Sam Obernik. It is a perfect exemple of hard studio work combined with the guts to go for a cross over track. Remixer Stefano Noferini tops it off with a tech house stonker.
