Agnetha, Björn & Benny among the attendants to Michael B. Tretow's funeral in Mikaelskapellet in Stockholm today. Michael, their sound engineer died in May at the age of 80. Also there Gorel Hanser, Janne Schaffer & Claes Olof af Geijerstam. Texto below English translation from Expressen.se article.

The man behind ABBA’s sound, sound engineer Michael B. Tretow, passed away in May at the age of 80.

Today he is being buried in Stockholm where friends, relatives and colleagues have gathered.

- There are so many memories, says Agnetha Fältskog.

Michael B. Tretow passed away earlier in May at the age of 80. On Thursday he will be buried in Mikaelskapellet in Stockholm, just a stone's throw opposite Metronome Studio, now Atlantis Studios, where ABBA’s sound was created.

Guitarist Janne Schaffer worked closely with Abba for many years. He is on site at the funeral to say goodbye to his colleague and friend.

- Micke was a fantastic person and an incredibly skilled sound engineer, he says and continues:

- He was a big part of both Ted Gärdestad's and ABBA’s success.

Schaffer remembers his first meeting with Tretow.

- It was on Ted's Gärdestad's first album, we recorded here, he says.

The guitarist recalls fun memories with the exploratory sound engineer. Among them was when he and Tretow tested a Marshall amplifier in producer Bruno Glenmark's indoor swimming pool.

– It was an amazing sound. It was just that Anne-Louise Hanson's mother was at home and thought it was an earthquake.

– We tried so many different things. Micke was always so interested in doing new things and trying everything.

The ABBA members on site

Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson and Agnetha Fältskog are also on site.

– There are so many memories, says Fältskog.

Claes Olof af Geijerstam also worked with ABBA as a sound engineer in the mid-1970s. He remembers the first time he met Tretow when Ola & the Janglers recorded at the Metronome Studio.

– A natural talent, a fantastic person, always ready to laugh. We had so much technical fun for us. We loved odd gadgets in the studio, he says and laughs.

– A really lovely guy and a good songwriter. The man behind ABBA’s sound

Michael B. Tretow worked at the then famous Metronome Studio in the 1960s where he recorded material with, among others, Ted Gärdestad, Pugh Rogefeldt, Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson.

Since the 1970s, he was ABBA’s sound engineer on all albums except for "Voyage", which was released as late as 2021.

Tretow has been described by many as the man behind the classic ABBA sound. Among other things, he drew inspiration from Phil Spector's recording technique.

After ABBA split, he continued to work with the members on their solo projects and also musicals, including the "Chess" album.

In 2001, Tretow suffered a brain hemorrhage and three years later, after completing Agnetha Fältskog's album "My coloring book", he ended his career, writes DN.

During his career, Tretow also released cult songs such as "Den makalösa manicken" and "Hubba hubba zoot zoot" under the name Caramba. A studio project he had together with Ted Gärdestad.

NUEVOS SINGLES DE AGNETHA's new singles

Agnetha sigue publicando singles de su álbum "reimaginado" "A+" junto con videos y audios. Así el lyric-video de "BACK ON YOUR RADIO" y una edición navideña de "I KEEP THEM ON THE FLOOR BESIDE MY BED". Las incluímos por ser Agnetha, pero no porque nos parezcan interesantes. Incomprensible este nuevo trabajo de una gran voz que no la representa dignamente, en nuestra opinión.

Agnetha continues releasing singles from her "reimagined" "A+" together with videos and audios. The lyric-video of "BACK ON YOUR RADIO" and a Christmas edition of "I KEEP THEM ON THE FLOOR BESIDE MY BED". We include them here because they're Agnetha's, but not because we consider them interesting. Incomprehensible this new release of a great voice that doesn't represent her standards, in our opinion.

+ "A+": "DANCE YOUR PAIN AWAY" & "PERFUME IN THE BREEZE"

Dos nuevos "adelantos" de "A+", el disco remezclado de Agnetha Fältskog. En nuestra opinión no mejoran los originales y abusan del autotune, algo que la voz de Agnetha no necesita. Decepción.

Two new "peek sneaks" from "A+", Agnetha's remixed record. In our opinion they don't improve the originals and autotune overexposure, something that Agnetha's voice doesn't need. Disappointing.

Lyrics: Outside I'm cold but I'm burning inside Impossible, crazy Like snow in July People keep talking, they keep passing by The world could be ending I wouldn't care why What if You could be the one that I'll remember When I'm old and grey and looking back in life What if I just stumbled into my forever Baby, kiss me back to life Cause I can't breathe Oh it feels like I'm drowning Don't let me go now Please hold me closer Feels like I'm falling Into emotions I've never felt before So now, what Where do we go from (2)

Where do we go from here

(So now, what

Where do we go from (2)

I thought I carried a heart made of steel But you cracked it open, yeah you broke the seal So kiss me again now, and promise we'll last Cause I ́m tired of waiting, I ́m done with the past

AGNETHA'S "A+"

Pues finalmente ni recopilatorio, ni álbum de versiones, ni álbum nuevo... el "nuevo proyecto" de Agnetha parece que se reduce a una nueva canción y a una "reinterpretación" de su último álbum de hace diez años "A" en un formato de doble-CD. ¿Tanto "gran contrato discográfico" para esto? Decepcionante. Mañana se confirmará... pero estas fotos y descripción ya están hoy en amazon.co.uk.

Finally it's not a compilation, or a cover album, or a new album... it seems that Agnetha's "new project" is just one new song and a "reimagination" of her latest 10-year-old album "A" in a double-CD format. Such a "great record deal" for this? Disappointing. It will be confirmed tomorrow... but these photos and description are already today on amazon.co.uk.

"WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE?": ¿AGNETHA VERSIONANDO / covering THE CARPENTERS?

Pensando en qué puede consistir el nuevo proyecto de Agnetha... ¿una recopilación de canciones (viendo el reel con imágenes pasadas de toda su carrera)?, o ¿un nuevo álbum de versiones como "THE COLOURING BOOK", puesto que "WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?" es el título de una canción de The Carpenters que pega con el estilo-Agnetha? Se verá... Os dejo la canción de los Carpenters.

Thinking about what Agnetha's new proyect will bring... a compilation of her songs (watching the reel with past footage from all her career)? or, a new album of cover versions as "THE COLOURING BOOK", as "WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?" is also the title of The Carpenters' song which suits Agnetha's style? We'll see... I'll leave you with the Carpenters' song.

AGNETHA AVANZA ALGO... / teases something... "WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?"

Así con un ¿a dónde vamos desde aquí? llevan las redes sociales de Agnetha avanzando algo... ¿qué será?... ¿nuevas canciones?... ¿una recopilación?... Hace 10 años de su último álbum "A". Estaremos atentos a ver qué viene...

Like this with where do we go from here? is how Agnetha's social media are teasing something... what is it?... new songs?... a compliation?... Her last album "A" was 10 years ago.

We'll be paying attention to see whan happens...
