daniel stefanik is one of the techno and house newcomers of the last years. his carefreeness as a dj behind the decks and his likeable appearance are literally distinctive for a new generation of young, down-to-earth producers from germany, which are the result of the influence of väth, villalobos and hawtin on the one side, and solid but hedonistic house on the other. whereas many producers nowadays have dedicated themselves to only one musical direction, the influence of kerri chandler, chez damier or kevin saunderson is clearly noticeable in stefanik’s music. his longplay debut for cocoon recordings is a mirror of all these influences and yet it’s so up-to-date and contemporary like only few other techno and house albums today.

whilst most of us would associate the productions of butch with his effortlessly flowing, melodic and uplifting style, perfect music for the summer floors and terraces.... of late, the turkish born producer has been channeling back into his tougher and dare we say it, more butch techno sounds. having bathed us in the gorgeous tones of previous hits such as >papillon< and >eyes wide open<, butchs latest work for quartz music sees him expanding further on his recent chemically inspired cecille release >lsd 25<, by serving up a large helping of acid on, >303<. sinister and deadly, the creeping corrosive cut is perfect soundtrack for those dark strobe lit moments. >soul leaves body< sees on the polar opposite side of our trip as the blissed out beats of the tabla and strains of the sitar sweep us away an ethereal bed of sound.

consistently bombarded with claims of greatness, a singular genius is sometimes hard to hear through the noise. marques toliver is one such genius, a protagonist whose backstory seems inconsequential, as any personal encounter will give the impression that he fell fully formed from some distant and magical land.

inspired by the teachings of the earons (thats .22, .18, .33, .69 and .28 to the uninitiated, see www.earons.net for more background), a splinter group was formed earlier this year, with the express mission to bring back the message and connect it to a whole new audience. >land of hunger< is given a 2012 reconstruction from the cosmologist, a sturdy rework performed by the mysteriously concealed outfit, who identify themselves only as .40, and .44. whilst they are heavily influenced by earons beliefs on positive energy, which they seek to share, .40 + .44 are quick to point out they have no links with the earlier incarnation from 28 years ago, but felt a compelling force to unearth it once more. the universe knows when the time is right, and frankly the original broadcast was just too good to not want to fashion a 2012 edit, so a new chapter begins ...
