He started his musical career in the 1980s as a drummer in the speed metal bands Maninnya Blade and Hexenhaus.
His mother died of cancer in 1987.
In his teens, E-Type and his family moved to Bromma, a borough in the western part of Stockholm, and he is currently living in the heart of Stockholm.
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 E-Type a job as a VJ on ZTV.
His first solo single, "I'm Falling" was released in mid-1993 but did poorly commercially.
E-Type's breakthrough came in 1994 with the collaboration with the producers from Cheiron (Denniz Pop, Max Martin, and Amadin) on his debut album Made in Sweden.
A single from this album, "Set the World on Fire", reached gold status in Sweden, #1 on the Swedish dance chart, #2 on the Swedish sale chart, and #4 in Israel.
Eventually four other singles were released from the album: the ballad "Do You Always (Have To Be Alone)?", "This Is the Way" and "Russian Lullaby" (co-written by Jonas Berggren from Ace of Base).
"This Is the Way" reached #15 on the Billboard Club Chart in the United States and #6 on the UK Club Chart.
Most of the tracks feature the female vocalist Nana Hedin, who is featured on nearly all of E-Type's albums.
The album itself was released on 31 October 1994 and reached #2 on the album-chart.
Over 100,000 copies were sold in Sweden and the album was listed for 26 weeks.
