C'est la goute qui fait déborder le vase." This is the last straw. 
A strong statement in the middle of this EP, for an otherwise carefree bunch of buddies from the East of Flanders. That's only one side of the picture, though. This frustration and despair gets bundled with gratefulness and hope in their most recent "Bleached Flamingo EP". So don't take them for pessimists. Yes, they like some drama. And it's up to Stavroz to translate this in their way to music. 
Melancholic yet mesmerizing, confident yet haunting, but not too much that it sucks the life out of you. Because they added groove. And groove is life.

Bleached Flamingo

A place, undiscovered, nobody around. Help is on the way, guided by horns over drums, synths over bass. As you make your way through a paradise carnival in this off planet world. Summers are white, winters are green. 

A soundtrack for wandering, crossing up and down. A place to enter before, during or after the party. 

Suns and moons are setting and rising. Lakes and rivers are filled with sequences of guitars and patterns of snares. The big boom in the sky lights up arrangements as constellations.

The fragile voices in the sand. Pink piano improvisations countering steady beats. 

Reflections and portals forming multiple musical universes. Aujourd’hui we live.

Mindibu

Emerging from over a year of creative hibernation following their debut album, Stavroz's first single and title track of the upcoming EP "Kick Up the Dust" jolts them back into action with a proper... kick. As one of the most powerful songs they've ever done, it still feels very... "Stavroz":  lightly twisted with a wink and a frown. 
Known for their skillful balance between couch and club, Stavroz however boldly steers towards the heart of the dance floor this time: efficient, remorseless, powerful, intense and most of all... elegant.
Guiding you harmoniously through the club is a delightful duet of trumpet and saxophone, timed perfectly to heal you where it hurts most.

"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."

Stavroz - Gold Town EP

Stavroz - Kasambila EP

A delicate woodwind orchestra welcomes you into a realm only Stavroz knows how to paint. As mellotron adds to the blend, a lush guitar heavy groove swoops you off your feet and confirms your expectation. They mean business. Business as usual that is. Slow burning, sly and sexy with an occasional unexpected twist. Woodwinds, mellotrons, vocals and guitars intertwine and switch roles, comfortably nestled, in good hands. 
Comforting. Like the knowledge that “Wintergreen” is the first offering from Mindibu, the debut album of Moodfamily's favourite band, Stavroz.

Fire juggling, storm defying, remorseless grooves efficiently at work in Stavroz's second single ahead of their debut album. Its title track "In Mindibu" draws you out into an open field and serves you with a crossfire of sorrowful horns and deadly drums. Turmoil guaranteed.

Kick Up The Dust EP

Kick Up The Dust

The third track on the latest Stavroz EP is a captivating collaboration featuring Brussels-based pianist, producer and sound designer, Poltrock. In this mesmerizing composition, a combination of ethereal-sounding synths and duduk are combined with ghostly high-pitch distortions. Despite a backbone of muffled beats, the tune has vaporous qualities, reverberations that wobble and tinkle into space – it’s an easy listening experience but in a trippy, spaced-out way.

This musical direction exemplifies the essence of Stavroz's artistic philosophy, encapsulated in their motto: "We're trying to go for the sweet spot between the couch and the club." This approach has become a hallmark of the band's style, seamlessly blending elements of relaxation and danceability to create a unique and entrancing sonic experience that resonates with a diverse audience.

The second single of the newest Stavroz EP is upon us. In classic Stavroz-style, the Belgian quartet offers an astonishing journey of saxophone & duduk, supported by broken beats and chopped vocals. 
"Her Eyes Were Red" does what it says on the cover. There's melancholy - without sadness. Power - without force. Love - without lust. Stavroz's music possesses a distinct power that feels both natural and organic, never resorting to brute force or aggression.

The song is a testament to Stavroz's artistry, showcasing their ability to evoke deep emotions through their music. With each note and rhythm, they prove why they are celebrated as one of the most innovative and captivating musical acts in the electronic music scene. This track is a shining example of their talent, leaving a lasting impression on both your ears and your heart.

Her Eyes Were Red

Brazilian singer and composer Castello Branco hopped on board with Stavroz to bring intimate Sade-like vocals to the track “Valente”, the last single to complete their “Kick Up the Dust” EP. 
Beneath the sensuous Portuguese singing, rubbery scratches, acoustic guitar and horn segments turn the tune into a lush lounge piece – somehow both chill and empowering, transparent and provocative.

Moodcast #3 compiled by Stavroz

The forthcoming single from Stavroz's third EP on Moodfamily "Bleached Flamingo EP" is an
emotional rollercoaster. As a threatening wave, violins rush to you in the opening moments
and lay down a foundation on which a deceiving seven count groove comfortably settles. An
upsetting atmosphere haunts you through the first minutes. Until halfway, the song suddenly
blossoms when a weeping synth starts the theme and paves the way for the saxophone to take
over effortlessly. Together, they conclude the song in unison, delighted to have found each
other.

Stavroz - Bleached Flamingo

Stavroz's second single from their new "Bleached Flamingo EP" introduces you to the time machine of early morning clubs.. It summons the strange behavior that appears in people in clubs or at festivals at dawn. The energy that awakens you to keep you in close range of the subwoofers. If it's addiction, then we better get admitted. Because that last drink ... Isn't actually your last drink. Your car in the parking lot will be switched for a taxi, or for a walk to the nearby house of a friend. And slowly but steadily, the realization sinks in... You'll be home on Monday, not on Sunday.. Time travel completed.

C'est la goute qui fait déborder le vase." This is the last straw. 
A strong statement in the middle of this EP, for an otherwise carefree bunch of buddies from the East of Flanders. 
That's only one side of the picture, though. This frustration and despair gets bundled with gratefulness and hope in their most recent "Bleached Flamingo EP". So don't take them for pessimists. Yes, they like some drama. And it's up to Stavroz to translate this in their way to music. 
Melancholic yet mesmerizing, confident yet haunting, but not too much that it sucks the life out of you. Because they added groove. And groove is life.

Have we got a little gift for you today!

Our fellow Belgian "Stan Lee Cole" released his album and asked us to do a remix for his hit single "Separated". Since the track is utterly beautiful (and so is the video), we just couldn't say no. "Separated" won first prize in the Prestigious International Songwrting Contest, judged by a.o. Tom Waits and Suzanne Vega.

Our version is a little sunnier than the original, creating more a feeling of hope.

It's free, enjoy it!
