Infotext:
„The Flying Dagger“ is Cressida’s first release on Shaw Cuts, which deals with themes of greed, revenge, honor, chivalry and the internal struggle between good and evil that exists within all of us.
Yu Ying happens upon the scene of an atrocity and double murder. She outrageously kills the perpetrator, who is the son of the infamous Green Dragon Clan boss Jiao Lei. The broken rhythm and heavy hitting drums of „Cat’s Claw“ shine a light on the shocking act of violence.
Upon learning the surprising news, Jiao Lei proclaims war on her and attacks Yu Ying’s father Yu Yuan who manages to escape with his children although he gets severely injured. The pounding drums of „Radiate“ and its thrilling ambiance boosts up the family’s energy and keeps everybody safe.
The pursuit is on and Jian Lei is hell-bent on killing them all, preferentially with his throwing knifes. However, he is thwarted in his plans by the emergence of the mysterious stranger Yang Qing whose ability to throw projectiles rivals that of Jiao Lei.
„Medusa“ and its percussive lunacy paired with unexpected groove twists guide our hero through times of many tough challenges and evil encounters.
Chief Jiao tries to tempt Yang Qing with money to join his Green Dragon Clan, but our hero can’t be bought. With the help of the furious „Do I Stay“ and its steamroll drum pattern, pushing bassline and raw atmosphere, he comes to the rescue of several victims of the Green Dragon Clan instead.
Yang Qing uses his martial proficiency to fight on the side of society, but is he strong enough for the rousing finale? The bass-heavy vibe of „Let the Devil In“ and its swirling vocal cuts blended with funky breaks and warm pads, send out one more energy before everything is heated up to the max. Step further!

The Flying Dagger

PREMIERE: Cressida - Cat's Claw [Shaw Cuts]

Here we go with the 847th "Groove Magazine"-ish artist short biography:

Jan emerged his burning passion for drumming and pretty much all styles of music in his early childhood.
He got his first electronic Compact Disk at the age of 7, followed by a´s premium Hi-Fi system, discovering his tape and CD deck mixing skills or ripping radio tunes.

After out of body experiences caused by serious asthmatic shocks where he nearly coughed himself to death he developed the ability of lucid dreaming and was able to control his dream states and consciousness.
Like world famous Richard D. James aka Aphex Twin Jan got blessed and inspired by heavenly melodies in those lucid states.

After entering the Berlin club scene at the age of 16 he desired to become a DJ and quickly expanded his social circle with electronic music enthusiasts, organising Techno or Psytrance Raves for a few years.

Working in the most fancy and popular music Hotel in Europe which is located at the Oberbaumbrücke in Berlin Friedrichshain influenced him in many ways and he gained a lot of experiences, musical knowledge and opportunities for his next steps in life.

The fact that clubbing and tourism in the Techno Mekka is slowly but surely recovering since spring 2022 made him realise that it's the perfect moment for him to share his always well maintained music collection with all the  fans of electronic music out there.

Enjoy!
