WHAT I DO
​
Skender Makota (BALKANIMAL)
Keys, Synths, Bass guitar, El. guitar, DJ, Production & Engineering
​
All of the original songs are composed, produced and engineered by Skender.
​
I love the LIVE ACT performances, where I break down the productions into basic song elements (drums, bass, synths, guitars etc), then rebuild the song LIVE, using all of the original instruments, as well as new sounds I bring in on my Moog gear and find appropriate for the occasion.
The LIVE SHOW is therefore always fun to watch, and very dynamic in nature, sounding similar, but never the same!
Live recording of my performance is available for download almost immediately after the show!
