Suppoz is the performance guise of Stephen Pozgay, a musical libertine who is gladly guilty of being a genre-hopping DJ. While he is currently best known for his long-running weekly, Techno Sol , Suppoz is a a 10 year veteran selector who has gone through a number of modes as a DJ, from radio to parties to clubs, holding down four different Portland residencies ( Techno Sol ; Dirty; Knotty Disco ; One If By Land, Two If By Sea; and Achromatic ) and two radio shows over the years.
Growing up in a musical family, Suppoz was trained by ear from a young age when his parents would play classical string quartets, John Coltrane, Joan Baez, and Rolling Stones records for him. From his nascent days as a BMG and Columbia House tape club member, he has been a music fanatic, always willing to share his collection with friends. Along the way, he has studied cello, piano, electric bass, guitar, and MIDI-based computers, and has since moved on to coordinating the sounds of other musicians (ie. DJing).
Currently, he plays from the following genres on a regular basis:Minimal Techno/House/Tech House (aka Techno Sol )
Ambient/Experimental (aka Achromatic)
broken, grimey summertime dance music (aka Settle Down Now)
"liquid"/soulful/abstract Drum 'n Bass
Downtempo/Abstract beats
Indie Pop/Indie Rock
Indietronic (aka Indelible)
With regular gigs around Portland and the Northwest, Suppoz is always looking forward to the next show and the next audience to share in his musical ideas. If you'd like to be on the regular Announcements email list, just enter your email address and "Join" up!
