DJ ROS will take partiers on a worldwide tour with Passport, his new A/V concept launching at Asylum in Macon, Ga., on May 8. Developed with Integrated Visions, the concept attempts to take club-goers around the world via a 3-D-esque experience that combines cutting-edge video technologies with ROS’ style of hip-hop and rock mash-ups and electro remixes. Passport is not a staged production, however — it involves live remixing and visual tricks like green screens, making every performance unique and spontaneous. The concept is positioned to tour the larger venues, according to DJ ROS.
