Daniel Cardoso (March 28, 1981) is a multi-instrumentalist and producer. He was born in the south of Portugal, and is currently partner with Kristoffer Rygg in Head Control System.
Known as drummer in the band SiriuS, and with whom he released two records through the Norwegian label Nocturnal Art Productions (property of Tomas "Samoth" Haugen). In addition to his drumming, Daniel was responsible for all the orchestral compositions, synth performance, most of the bass guitar recordings as well as co-producing both albums. His experiences in SiriuS has helped Daniel develop a multi-angled perception of music creation. When SiriuS later nailed down a record deal with Nuclear Blast he decided to move on, because, as he said, "it just wasn't funny anymore." He then conceived and commenced working on SinDRomE, i.e. Severe Damage on Reason and Equilibrium, his musical "means" to manipulate minds via sound. SinDRomE would later become Head Control System.
Daniel also has an extensive curriculum as both producer and session musician for a long list of bands: Heavenwood, Ramp, Head Control System, Ava Inferi, Vertigo Steps, The Firstborn, The SymphOnyx, W.A.K.O., Audy Braur, Oblique Rain et al. Furthermore, he was invited by the band Re:aktor (signed on Nuclear Blast) to join their flanks - which he did for a while - featuring on their debut record's single video and joining them on their European tour supporting U.S. band Exodus as a drummer.
He just completed his work with Kristoffer Rygg on Murder Nature, Head Control System's debut album, released worldwide by The End Records (US) and VME (Europe) and recently started developing his solo efforts as Del, although things are not clear whether this is a serious project or not.
Daniel also owns UltraSoundStudios (located in Braga, north of Portugal), his own recording facilities where he creates and conspires all of his musical endeavours as musician and producer.

[edit] Live
During his "still-short and still growing" career, Daniel played hundreds of live gigs behind the drumkit. Although he was most seen stepping the stages with the portuguese live cover band RCA (featuring members from Ramp and Re:aktor), he also played several gigs with SiriuS, The Firstborn and Re:aktor. Recently Daniel had to step in as a drummer of the renowned portuguese act Ramp, after their drummer Paulo Martins got injured and was unable to play the drums. Among other shows, Daniel played on the main stage of SBSR 2006 summer fest, featuring other bands such as Alice in Chains, Tool and Korn. Daniel is currently playing with heavy rockers Heavenwood and progressive fellows Oblique Rain, both bands were previously gifted with his production credits.
