Stana - My Year In Hard Dance

What's been your biggest achievement of the year?

I would have to say all this great support I have been getting this year. The crowd has been amazing wherever I have played in the world and the djs has been very supportive! My sound has been spreading all over and its great to se my music growing.

What moments will you never forget?

Looking back at a amazing year in Stockholm in NYE when I was playing for Monday Bar as they brought down a big white screen and count down started with a laser. As the number turned 0 it was my cue and the Swedish crowd went crazy!

Who's been your favourite newcomer of the year?

I was very impressed with the japanese "The third man" very solid Techy releases that hit my taste and a very refreshing sound to the scene.

Who's been the artist of the year for you?

A*S*Y*S has shown to be a great deal this year with his FE releases and his amazing remixes and has brought a little more acid back to the scene and a little more Tech and what more can you exect of the german genius?!

What's been your favourite label of the year?

Theracords/Therabyte has released a lot of good music this year and im very proud to have been a part of its amazing year which I think will be better and better for every year!

What do you think has been the best track of the year?

"Dimavi - What U Think" a very funky acid Techy track ive been playing all year!

What's been your favourite event of the year?

Resistance in Melbourne without a doubt! I was very pleased with the event and the people which made the atmosphere of the whole event fantastic! The australian crowd is more than amazing and they where great to hang out with and we shared a dussin of unforgetble moments that night!

What's the funniest thing that's happened to you?

I was playing in the UK just outside London and I came to the club a little early to put in my bag behind the decks and I was thinking of testing out the players while I was there. So I put my cds in and started testing the sound for about a minute and before I knew it my leg up to my knee fell down a hole I diden´t notice. Turned out the scene wasen´t finished...I had to play with a bandage over my knee the rest of the night

What do you have planned for the next year?

Well im releasing "Tech Maniac 2" in january aswell as a remix of Apex Mind "Speeder". Im also releasing an EP with a new Swedish label, Quadrum, and an EP with the UK label Germantrance very soon. Other then that expect alot of other releases and to se me behind the decks hopefully as much as 2009.
