Cheiron Studios

Cheiron Studios (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈɕɛ̌jrɔn]) was a recording studio located in the Kungsholmen district of Stockholm, Sweden. Founded in 1992 by Denniz PoP and Tom Talomaa, it was known for being a place where popular music acts of the late 1990s/early 2000s, such as Backstreet Boys, Boyzone, Robyn, NSYNC, Britney Spears, and Westlife produced many of their greatest hits. In addition, Cheiron Studios was also a record label, Cheiron Records, affiliated with BMG for a while, and a music publishing service (Cheiron Songs), although those ventures were later abandoned in favour of music production. After Denniz PoP's death in 1998, Cheiron closed in 2000. Talomaa and Max Martin reformed the company as Maratone, while Kristian Lundin and Jake Schulze formed Location Songs, and David Kreuger and Per Magnusson started A Side Productions. The studio is currently owned by Roxy Recordings, which also includes the Hanssonic Studios of Anders Hansson.
