In 2006, Leipzig-based DJ and producer Matthias Tanzmann set up Cargo Edition to serve as an extension of the stylistic spectrum of its parent label Moon Harbour Recordings. Five years on has seen Cargo Edition develop into an independent platform with its own unique voice and family of illustrious artists, each adding to the label's character; from the multi-layered and melodic tracks of Sven Tasnadi, Markus Schatz and Juno6, to the detailed aesthetics of Michael Melchner, from the reduced, dry sounds of Vera to the functional house of Ekkohaus. On top of A&R-ing Cargo Edition, Matthias Tanzmann also contributes his own original and remix work for the label. Unsurprisingly, the label is very excited to celebrate the fifth anniversary of Cargo Edition with its first label compilation. As well as the whole Cargo Edition family submitting their own exclusive tracks, new friends and members such as Livio & Roby, Ralph Sliwinski and Skipson also contribute exclusive material. On the bonus CD, Berlin resident Ekkohaus reviews Cargo Edition's history with a very special DJ mix. In his own words, "I selected the right moments from the Cargo Edition discography to create a flow that allows the label's signature sound to unfold, and showcases its spectacular artists." With the bonus mix, Ekkohaus demonstrates that he's not only an outstanding producer and live act, but also a great DJ.
