Playing around with Isotope's Break Tweaker, which has a sharp, cutting, tensile sound I love. Plus Cherry Audio's CR78, Elka-X , Octave Cat and Acustica Audio's THING 8. Hope you enjoy! :)

‘Hunt’ burns slow and steady. This smouldering first step into Stavroz’s forthcoming album ‘Take a Seat’ is as ever true to the band’s nature as it tiptoes between melancholy and hope, balancing restraint with momentum.

Their signature instruments return, but this time with an intimacy that feels closer to their live shows than ever before. Hypnotic. Driving. Droning. Subdued, yet undeniably powerful. Hunt captures the quiet intensity that makes Stavroz so hard to pin down, and so easy to get lost in.

"Tales of Talabout linger,
but stay we could no longer.
Continuing through the trees, 
we come in peace; 
a four-piece.
Fresh out the gates, 
lights in the distance, 
Gold Town awaits."

"Moodfamily’s favourite four-piece returns home after many journeys.
Impatient, as we are, we had to hear their stories. Skillfully combining influences, sounds and experiences from east and west, they translated their stories to a new EP, oozing with drama, melancholy and determination.

The EP describes itself as the soundtrack for an adventure to mysterious outskirts around the globe, starting with 'Whale Parade'. This prelude brings you to a hidden land after wandering through forests for many months. Guitar, piano and percussion gently move in and carry you away. By the second track, All Day I Zama, a slow beat dictated by a banket of percussion evolves to a vigorous and groovy track with moaning vocals as the main theme.

In title track Gold Town, you will settle yourself in a covered wagon, heading for dodgy settlements on a misty mountain range, accompanied by a grieving trumpet.

As the wagon slows to a crawl, Ghajar emerges, a downtempo emotion-filled song, where the piano and a scorching synth interchange melodies and tales."

Since you've all been waiting so long for our new release we thought it would be fun to have Nathan (on saxophone) give you a wonderful story, drenched in a Stavroz sauce. Eat it while it's hot!

Stavroz - The Finishing

I've been making electronic music since I bought my first synth (a Juno-60) and a Tascam 4-track way back in about 1986. I work with singer-songwriters and performance artists, and compose for modern dance and theatre. The pieces here represent recent electronic instrumentals, where I’m exploring/experimenting/having fun with 'pop' music production techniques and composition. I currently live in Tokyo, and am interested in collaborating with other artists. You can hear my PhD compositions here: https://soundcloud.com/mphorrocks
