His talent for songwriting was already in evidence as he wrote many of the group's songs. By 18 he had discovered production when, with the aid of a "sampler, a little mixing board, synthesizers", he began doing remixes.
In 1998 he was approached by Max Martin, who was looking for a new production partner, and asked to join the legendary Cheiron Studios in Stockholm. Rami’s first collaboration with Martin was producing the ground-breaking hit "...Baby One More Time
