Over the last decade, Stojche Cvetanovski has appeared for many top labels, such as liebe*detail, Dogmatik and Subwax BCN. Here he makes his debut on Don Williams' esteemed Berlin imprint a.r.t.less, with some soulful techno excursions on the Magnitude EP. From the steely and austere energy of the title track - a dubby excursion from the factory floor which is perfect for those heads down moments, to additional A side cut "Matrix" - a deep and almost beatless number which displays even more emotive qualities. Featuring layers of life affirming strings/pads working their subtle magic - pretty awesome stuff. On the flip, Cvetanovski certainly proves that there is real diversity in his repertoire, on the sombre electro bass of "Compassion" which closes out this fine EP. Tip!
