Artist:	STEFANIK, DANIEL
Title:	Window Smasher EP
Label:	CARGO EDITION (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	CARGO 001EP

"Cargo Edition is the new label of Moon Harbour artists Daniel Stefanik and Matthias Tanzmann. You might wonder: why still another new label? The explanation is pretty simple: Daniel loves techno. And he is producing a lot of it. Instead of stretching the musical profile of Moon Harbour into all directions, Cargo Edition was founded for experimental, techno-oriented sounds. This is where Daniel can do whatever he wants to do -- and together with him his mates in mind. One of them being Mathias Kaden -- having gained a status as shooting star of minimal with his releases on Freude am Tanzen and Vakant, he gilds 'Window Smasher' through squeezing Daniel's original into one of his typical pieces of minimal madness, rich of details and extremely forward. In comparison, the flipside is much more drawn back, showing Daniel's love for the morning hours in Berlin's crazed Panoramabar Club."

Title:	Nocturnal
Label:	COCOON (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.50
Catalog #:	COR 083EP

Daniel Stefanik is one of the most reliable initiators of electronic dance music in East Germany. "Nocturnal," the title-track of Stefanik's Cocoon debut, is another true manifesto for the bass drum, which repeatedly jumps to the track's front relentlessly within the nine minutes playtime, rising from mysterious breaks, percussive beat fabrics and melancholic harmony intermezzi. "Dirty Rhodes" receives its energy from the rhythm of the steadily-increasing snares -- a phenomenal "drum dance" in the true sense of the word.
