Stay+ (formally Christian AIDS) is an electronic music and video collective presumed to be based in Manchester. They are known for releasing music videos with controversial and tongue-in-cheek themes. They also maintain an element of anonymity around their work, choosing to release only limited press shots, interviews and details about members. One example saw a balloonist take their place for a Radio 1 interview. They list David Lynch and Apple umung their inspirations.
Their video for "Young Luv" features found images of the 2011 Royal Wedding with Kate removed from the proceedings due to being stuck in a car.[1]
Name Controversy
The collective were forced to change their name after a cease and desist letter from the Christian Aid charity.[2] Stay Positive was the name of their first release [3] although most people pronounce their name "stay" or "stay plus".
