Maratone Studio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Maratone is a music production company, started by two music producers and songwriters, Max Martin and Tom Talomaa. Based in Stockholm, Sweden, it was started in January 2001 after the closing of the Cheiron studios.

The first songs to be written and produced at Maratone were four tracks for Britney Spears´ third album "Britney". The Maratone production crew now consists of producers/songwriters Max Martin, Rami and Arnthor. Alexandra Talomaa left, and is now running her own studio/production company, named "Maridox Songs".

With Kelly Clarkson's hits Since U Been Gone and Behind These Hazel Eyes, which were produced at Maratone, Max Martin had reinvented himself (together with Lukasz Gottwald) by using a completely different sound than the "Cheiron sound" which he was so famous for. He has continued to use the new rock sound on hits for a-ha, Pink and many more.
