Amir Chamdin
Amir Juan Chamdin (born 4 June 1974) is a Swedish director and musician renowned for his work in music videos, feature films, and TV series.
Chamdin first made a name for himself as the front figure of the Swedish hip hop band Infinite Mass. After starting his career on stage performing with the band, he later achieved recognition when he turned into a director. Highlights include MTV Best Video winner “You're the Storm” for The Cardigans, the feature film sensation Cornelis—about one of Sweden's greatest music legends- and the crime-thriller Hassel, which reached number 1 as the most-watched new series in Sweden and Finland in 2017.
In 2020, Chamdin received the award for 'Best Series' at CANNESSERIES for his original TV series, "Partisan", which premiered on Viaplay in August the same year. Partisan set a record for the most-viewed Viaplay original show on its premiere night.
His diverse directorial portfolio includes notable works such as the ballet Gustavia, the music video Satanized, and television series like Partisan and Börje – The Journey of a Legend.
Amir Juan Chamdin was born in Huddinge, Sweden, to a Syrian father and a Finnish mother from Kiikoinen, Finland. He was raised in Södermalm, Stockholm. Chamdin is a front figure in the groundbreaking Swedish hip hop group Infinite Mass since their formation in 1991. Directing and creating the visual world of the band gave him acknowledgment and a stepping-stone to becoming a full-time director. Working closely with other bands like The Hellacopters, Ghost (Swedish band)|Ghost and The Cardigans was a natural fit and the innovative film school he never had.
In 2001, Infinite Mass released their third studio album, “The Face,” on Polar/Universal. The album was a major success, and its first single, ”Bullet” featuring Roger Daltrey, became an instant hit and gold record. Chamdin also had the lead role in “The Artist,” a short film made in New York.
In 2002, Chamdin became the third director of RAF (Renck Åkerlund Films). Working alongside his long-time friends and accomplished brethren Jonas Åkerlund and Johan Renck.
It was 2004 when Chamdin received MTV's coveted Best Music Video Award for The Cardigans’ “You're The Storm.” 2004 was also the year when Infinite Mass dropped their 4th studio album 1991 gaining the title; most played band/artist on Swedish radio in 2004 ahead of Outcast and Scissor Sisters. It was also now that Amir & Dregen from Backyard Babies formed Snowracer, a progressive electronic band together with Martin ”Nåid” Landquist and Brady Blade. The debut album was released in 2005 with Universal and featured guest artists such as Emmylou Harris.
