 fell in love with your music! I'm a contemporary dancer and it's so cool to stage productions to your tracks, wow! 

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.

Stavroz - Wintergreen

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.

"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."

Ghajar

Stavroz - Ghajar

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

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.
