How I Play: Stavroz's setup merges live production and band

We love to see artists who layer technology on top of live performance - and today's How I Play with @StavrozOfficial is a unique one. They're an "organic electronic live band" - incorporating elements of production, live performance, and a band-style setup all into one.

How I Play is an original video series created by DJ Techtools in 2011 that aims to go beyond the traditional artist interview and explore how unique live performances work. The series focus on the tools and technologies behind the performance and how the artists build and control their rigs. We believe that promoting these types of setups empower creators of all skill and notoriety levels to take chances and try new things.

Well, 30 seconds in and this takes me back to when I DJ'd with Nik Turner of Hawkwind (RIP) in South Wales (SW) in 2002. It was totally random.. I certainly wasn't expecting to Mix tracks alongside someone playing a Saxophone and it worked well in parts and others it didn't. I was living in West Sussex, UK and was asked to DJ at some Farmers Barn in SW that had half the roof missing but was set up with lights and a small stage to my right with a Live Band performing good electronic tunes in between DJ breaks(they played at Glastonbury etc). About an hour into the gig, Nik Turner, arrives and soon enough is on the small stage to my right blurting out Saxo-wind to my Detroit Techno and Chi.. House. Ok, cool 😃 Occasionally, the Sax conflicted with either cueing up tunes as it was loud in parts or pitch change he wasn't aware of, and sometimes he didn't bother changing pitch.. ha! For the most part it worked and was all Impromptu.. A night to remember for sure. Thanks for the upload, Easy
