🎙Made in America Productions AS (Concerts & Promo) M&Z Music, founded by Marian Aas Hansen and Zelimir Kulisic, is a vibrant music label, publishing house, and production hub representing some of Scandinavia’s most celebrated artists. Alongside their own stellar songwriting and performing careers, Marian and Zelimir collaborate with and publish songs for Lillebror Sande Larsen, while Zelimir’s songwriting has been featured in major-label releases for acts such as Lasse Stefanz, Streaplers, and The Scotts under Warner Music Sweden. The M&Z Music Studio in Gran Canaria is more than just a studio—it’s a cultural hub and music museum showcasing the rich artistic journey of Marian Aas Hansen and Zelimir Kulisic, spanning over 30 years. Outfitted with legendary equipment like the Neumann M49b microphone and the D&R Orion X mixing console, the studio serves as the birthplace of timeless recordings for their label and publishing catalog. The studio also reflects Marian & Zelimir’s rich musical legacy, housing treasures such as Marian’s golden sparkling dress from her Showgirls tour, Zelimir’s iconic leather jacket from his Judy music video, the legendary “Fire” piano from the Made in America Show tour, and collectibles like signed memorabilia from Elvis Presley’s friends. Highlights also include Zelimir’s signed guitars from Chan Romero (Hippy Hippy Shake) and the legendary Albert Lee, commemorating the "Judy" and "Hippy Hippy Shake" recording sessions, among many others. Adorning the studio walls are photos from collaborations with Alexander Rybak and Chan Romero, featured not only on M&Z Music’s releases but also captured live during their Made in America concerts. A true gem of the collection is a Fender Telecaster, James Burton Signature Model, played by James Burton (Elvis Presley’s guitarist) himself during his Norway tour. The guitar strings he used on this iconic instrument are now framed as a tribute to this unforgettable moment. The studio walls are further adorned with photos capturing Marian and Zelimir alongside their esteemed colleagues and collaborators, including Morten Harket from A-ha, Stephen Ackles, Weather Girls, Goran Bregovic, Albert Lee, and Jerry Scheff, famed for playing with Elvis Presley and The Doors. The studio serves as the creative hub for their label, where Marian and Zelimir produce music for themselves and their collaborators. Marian’s rendition of the classic “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas”, the official seasonal anthem for Norway’s biggest mobile and internet company, Telenor, is just one example of the excellence and dedication that M&Z Music represents. Additionally, her heartfelt performance of NattaSang, a modern lullaby featured on her Christmas album, has garnered millions of streams, becoming a cherished favorite among listeners and cementing her place as one of Norway’s most beloved vocalists. Zelimir’s collaborations have also made waves internationally, including his work with legendary guitarist Albert Lee, launching Zelimir’s music into the Top 100 charts in over 15 countries. Following this success, numerous artists have covered Zelimir’s iconic song JUDY. Another historic highlight is the release of a new version of Hippy Hippy Shake—a groundbreaking duet between Zelimir and Chan Romero, the original singer and songwriter of the 1950s classic. This duet marks the first time Chan Romero has ever performed Hippy Hippy Shake as a duet and solidifies Marian and Zelimir’s place in rock and roll history. Chan Romero’s involvement in the legendary Made in America Tour Show in Norway further underscores this remarkable milestone. These accomplishments reflect the unwavering passion, creativity, and quality that define M&Z Music and its mission to create timeless music with impact. In addition to their productions, the studio hosts exclusive VIP events, blending live music, storytelling, and an intimate atmosphere. Whether it’s heartfelt ballads, rock and roll, or enchanting Christmas favorites, attendees are treated to unforgettable evenings that showcase the essence of Marian & Zelimir’s artistry.
