Matt Atkins & Stuart Chalmers - Random Architecture (cs, moremars, 2024)A set of kinetic and sometimes meditative sound collages built from recordings shared between both artists, their first recording together. The element of chance was adapted into the editing process, resulting in vibrantly textured layers that interact with each other in unpredictable ways.
Stuart : Gongs, various percussion, bass drum, field rec, tape and fx.
Matt: Percussion, Shruti Box, Tapes, Editing.
Recorded 2023 KM.

Marios Moras - Non Living Nature: Compositions for Dictaphone (cs, moremars, 2024)"In 2020, I bought a used Sanyo M-5799 dictaphone, from the internet. The dictaphone arrived with a mini cassette. When I played the tape, there was a recording from the previous owner. He was testing the recorder, to see if it was functional, but at some point he recorded the words "... Less to be, not to be". This "messege" from this old man stood out to me like he wanted me to listen his advice or his existential fears"
This album is dedicated to this man, to the concept of "the end of humanitarianism" and the "rise of the machine".
Marios Moras is a member of Τhe Hellenic Electroacoustic Music Composers Association (HELMCA). He is one of the founders of Moremars label. Non Living Nature is his first solo album.
Marios Moras: Field recordings, cassette manipulation, objects, sampling, Korg Ms20, melodica.
All sounds was recorded with analog and digital recorders.
