Notes

Podcast hosts Niklas Berglöf and Magnus Lindberg interview Christoffer Berg about his career, for issue #58 of their 'Musikprodd-podden' podcast, recorded at Redmount Studios in Stockholm. Among other things, they ask Christoffer about the time he was a programmer for Depeche Mode's Delta Machine, recorded in 2012. Christoffer talks about being suggested by Ben Hillier's team as a possible programmer and meeting all the criteria of a long list of programming skills; having to meet Daniel Miller in London to get an "OK stamp" from him; working intensely in 5-week, 6-days-a-week recording sessions for three sessions with a 3-week break in between recording sessions, making a total of 140 working days; having to send raw mixes of songs to Daniel Miller every day; the band telling Christoffer that Vince Clarke was coming over for dinner; the band staying at a hotel in Beverly Hills in April 2013 and Martin being starstruck by seeing Mick Jagger and Paul McCarthy there.
