#350: Stavroz on Creating, Producing, and Performing Their New EP Kick Up the Dust

Stavroz is an organic and cinematic electronic music group from Belgium. The award-winning 4-piece combines DJ-style electronic performances with acoustic instruments such as bass, guitar, wind, and brass. In December 2023, they released their Kick Up the Dust EP, combining a variety of styles, moods, energies, and instrumentation. I spoke with Gert from Stavroz, whose varied role in the band includes mixing, producing, and performing brass instruments, among other duties. Gert takes us through the band's creative process beginning with song creation, jamming, recording, and live performance.  Listen on Apple, Spotify, Google, YouTube Show Notes: Stavroz - https://www.stavroz.be Kick Up The Dust by Stavroz - https://stavroz.bandcamp.com/album/kick-up-the-dust Stavroz Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/stavroz_official/ Stavroz YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@StavrozOfficial Stavroz Live I Hangar Mind - https://youtu.be/uEjI5UGesQE?si=osVmQnN6idkJaMmR Stavroz Live @ Fort Saint Eynard - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HlpoRR9NoM Stimming on the Music Production Podcast - https://brianfunk.com/blog/martin-stimming Brian Funk Website - https://brianfunk.com Music Production Club - https://brianfunk.com/mpc  5-Minute Music Producer - https://brianfunk.com/book Intro Music Made with 16-Bit Ableton Live Pack - https://brianfunk.com/blog/16-bit Music Production Podcast - https://brianfunk.com/podcast Save 25% on Ableton Live Packs at my store with the code: PODCAST - https://brianfunk.com/store This episode was edited by Animus Invidious of PerforModule - https://performodule.com/ Music Production Club Live Meeting Music: "Aurora" by Trevphonic - https://soundcloud.com/trevb111/aurora "231030 MPC Jam" by Psychotronic Squirt Gun - https://on.soundcloud.com/3Drmq "Project 202 for MPC" by Siqn - https://subnoiseky.bandcamp.com/track/project-202-for-mpc Animus Invidious - https://animusinvidious.bandcamp.com/ "Mysteriously Creepy" by Brian Funk - https://on.soundcloud.com/hkdJC Join the Music Production Club - https://brianfunk.com/mpc  Thank you for listening.  Please review the Music Production Podcast on your favorite podcast provider!
