"To make music, that is when you are in love. It’s just so beautiful. It just makes you so terribly happy.”

Nearly two decades into Daniel Stefanik's accidental career, and the core of it remains the same: “To make music, that is when you are in love.” The quintessential Stefanik production style is yet to find its limitations. Dub, house, techno and minimal converge, deepness and melancholy encounter maximalist tones, extravagance is steeped in nerdy sound aesthetics, and it's all executed with his unmistakeable style. Born in a provincial district near Dresden, Daniel fell for techno in the mid-90s, and once he'd taken a heavy dose of electro, and turned out the debut EP Them People in 2003 with Matthias Tanzmann, there was no turning back. Releases and remixes with that special Stefanik-Feder(feather) followed for Mobilee, Cocoon, Growin Music, KANN, Dissonant, Freude am Tanzen, Dessous or Raum…Musik. The end of 2008 saw a the release of Daniel's critically acclaimed solo album Reactivity on Statik Entertainment, superseded only by the epic follow-up Confidence for Cocoon and his album Genesis on Statik Entertainment, which is strongly marked by his roots in Detroit Techno. Love is constant, love is change. Daniel is loyal to his Leipzig base and its tightknit scene, his long-running DJ residency at the city's Club Distillery, and to his namesake solo sound that spawned a string of releases for labels like Moon Harbour and Cocoon. With his alter ego DLSK he had his debut in 2015 and sought out the headiest moments on the after-hours dancefloors. With a range of future-forward projects in the pipeline for 2019 - new music, new EPs, handpicked gigs, a residency for the new event series SAFE HOUSE and some special back 2 back performances with his buddy Mathias Kaden - Daniel's love story continues to add more and more vital chapters.

Four years later, the music label as usual.music was launched and concentrates on releasing a deeply groovin' cutting-edge sound in various facets, delivered by some fabulous artists of the labels surrounding, as well as several other renowned acts with a contemporary sense for underground and club music.

With no fear to break the rules at some point. It's represented by some of the most interesting artists in the underground music and club scene.

3 QUESTIONS to MARC HOULE:

Q: First of all thanks for your mix and the video you made of it. Let's talk about your roots: How did you get in touch with electronic music once?

A: Way back when, Electronic music really only existed in the realms of computers and science fiction. It represented a romantic dream of the unexplored future which was suddenly being made available to people en masse. Something clicked in my head and I wanted to explore these feelings and the electronic sounds became the soundtrack.  I’ve been chasing that dragon ever since. 

Q: How did you spend your days since the lockdown in early 2020?

A: So many phases have happened. I went from optimism to depression back to hope and scattering around trying to reinvent myself and trying to figure out how exactly I can make best use of this downtime.  It’s steered me back to the sounds and feelings I originally felt and allowed me time to focus once again.  I am rediscovering old synths, songs and cassettes and reworking them in a modern way.  It’s fun.

Q: Which future projects are on the way and what are you currently working on?

A: Right now I’m putting together a live set for Paxahau, the fine people who do the Detroit Movement Festival each year.  My itemsandthings.com Bandcamp page is updated and a new release should be up there soon. I’ve been exploring the Roland TR-8s a little more in-depthly and getting ready to dive into the new Ableton 12.  I’m also doing a bit of sound design for corporations as a means to keep that part of my brain busy.  Last night I had a dream I had 2 shows booked in France this weekend.  It’s strange for the last 15 years of my life to exist only in a dream state.

Much luv and respect to the CCC! Tobi

An On Bast is the moniker of electronic music producer and composer Anna Suda from Wrocław, Poland. Her largely improvised concerts, utilising hardware instruments, hop between melodic techno, experimental and ambient genres.
2006 marked the beginning of Anna's illustrious career when her debut album was published and she was subsequently selected from thousands of candidates to participate in the Red Bull Music Academy in Melbourne.
Vehemently active for the past 17 years within the international electronic music scene, her challenging approach into the research of high-powered sounds and textures is the cornerstone of her live electronic and techno groove. The unique combination of her rich imagination and excellent technical ability allows her to deliver exceptional musical experiences.
The deep and understanding relationship between Anna and her machines is instantly apparent during her performances as she glides effortlessly from modular synthesiser to drum machine via effects units. The results of these performances capture both the audiences ear and eye, immersing and encapsulating them in the entity that is An On Bast.
Seeing is truly believing.

Anna has released a number of EPs and seven solo albums. Suda also collaborates with labels across the globe, her music is published by record labels in Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Great Britain, Portugal, Australia, USA and China.
As well as her innovative electronic achievements Anna also eagerly reinterprets classical works of art. "The Rite of Spring" by Stravinsky as well as Chopin, Wieniawski and film music by Penderecki. She also works with sound design, creates music for movies, installations, modern dance performances and everything where music adds meaning and colour.
