Khabang Studio choose SSL

Chart topping acts from both sides of the Atlantic have been flocking to Stockholm to work with leading Swedish mix engineer/producer Niklas Flyckt in his privately owned Khabang studio.
Flyct, who recently installed an SL 9000 J Series SuperAnalogue console, counts Amy Studt, Britney Spears, Clay Aiken and S Club’s Rachel Stevens among his recent clients.
“The new console has been performing brilliantly and has proved especially useful for these mixing projects,” he says. “It has allowed us to be much more creative in our approach.”
A mixer for 22 years with an established international reputation, Flyckt has spent the last ten of them at Khabang, a studio built on top of a former mental hospital in the southern part of the city. In the control room, the 56-channel SL 9000 J Series console replaces a Neotek desk and was selected for its superior sound quality and increased facilities. “We’re incredibly busy here,“ Flyckt explains, “And I wanted a console that would satisfy the increasing demand for high quality and to cope with an arduous workload. I’m very familiar with SSL, having used an SL 4000 Series for recording and mixing on many occasions.”
Used primarily for mixing, Flyckt’s studio also features an 80 square-meter live area and isolation booth. A string of international hit albums and singles including, most recently, Dannii Minogue (Put the Needle on it,) Ms. Dynamite (Put Him Out,) and Sophie Ellis Bextor (Get Over You,) all received the distinctive mix touch at Khabang.
