Biography

If you want a rough outline of Daniel Stoyanov's life, have a good listen to Embrace, the ninth of eleven tracks on his debut album Motor Songs. In eight and a half minutes, Daniel aka Bulgarian Cartrader tells his life: Halley's Comet moves across the sky when he is born in Sofia, Bulgaria. Simultaneously with the comet, a "Slow Bullet" appears, which wants to haunt the protagonist of the story throughout his life, until the moment when it finds him - and hits him. Behind the Bulgarian Cartrader persona lies the smart brain and poetic heart of Daniel Stoyanov, whose former band Malky is well known. And in between, he always keeps busy: Daniel has played and worked a lot as a musician and songwriter for Solomun, rapper Casper or the Berlin institution Seeed - and he also states "Salsa dancer" in his CV. The path led Daniel Stoyanov from his country of birth Bulgaria to West Germany in the 90s, but the first years of his childhood left their mark - and inform his artistic expression to this day. Cinemascopic images drawn from biographical memories, sensory impressions and moods can be found in the eleven "Motor Songs" from his debut album. The songs bear an unmistakable and very own signature: Indie with great pop appeal, which drives straight ahead, rapid smasher descents and immediately afterwards takes us on branching roads and paths through landscapes of pure musical beauty
