Real name: Bo Martin Erik Erikson

Bo Martin Erik Erikson (born August 27, 1965 in Uppsala, Sweden), better known by his stage name E-Type, is a Swedish Eurodance musician with rock/metal roots.

He started his musical career in the 1980s as a drummer in the speed metal bands Maninnya Blade and Hexenhaus. In 1991 he met up with Stakka Bo with two singles as a result of the partnership: "We Got the Atmosphere" in 1991 and "Numania 1" in 1992. This earned him a job as a VJ on ZTV. His first solo single, "I'm Falling" was released in mid 1993 but did poorly commercially.

His breakthrough (as E-Type) came in 1994 with the collaboration with the producers from Cheiron (Denniz PoP, Max Martin, and Amadin) on his debut album Made in Sweden.
