Leama & Andy Moor

Real Name:
Andrew Beardmore & Martin Smith
Profile:
Leama and Moor is made up of Marty Smith (Leama) and Andy Moor. As a duo the pair have been working together since 1999 when they first met in Stoke on Trance - already a hot bed of the dance Music fraternity. The Cable Chamber Studios were a spiritual home to acts such as Tilt, Parks and Wilson, Quivver, Redanka, Tarantella and Soul MeKanik.

Leama and Moor were already successful in the industry - Leama had released tracks with Malcolm Mclaren and also formed ‘Odessi’ alongside Parks+Wilson. Andy was Classically trained and had tracks + remixes under various aliases on labels like Tommy Boy, Hooj choons etc.

At the time the pair had already co-written tracks like ‘Melodica’ and ‘Requiem for a Dream (perfecto)’ before deciding to amalgamate and Officially form Leama and Moor.

Their first project was to remix ‘2-players – Signet’ for lost language and found a new sound together by fusing different styles which created the platform for their trademark mixes.

Over the next five years the duo have carried out a series of remixes. As their sound progressed and grew to a new level, so did the names they were asked to remix. Britney Spears, Avril Lavinge, Tiesto, Orbital, Brian Eno, Paul Oakenfold & Above & Beyond all followed in receiving the Leama and Moor touch. In 2004 they released their debut original single “Shades of Blue/Red” on the Primal Label & “Angle Series 1” on Lost Language.

The duo draw on a diverse pool of influence , anything from Sasha & LSG to Pink Floyd, Vangelis, Jean Michel Jarre & Tangerine dream. Some powerful inspiration… all of which has helped weave the multi layered soundscapes which has made them so popular over the past 5 years.

I discovered this talented duo through their remix of Tranquility Base's "Getting Away". They make awesome music! Like Riva, they combine House with Trance (but in a different way) and it just works!

They have done many dreamy remixes all in the slightly Housey style. My favourites are probably Sonorous' "Protonic" and Li Kwan's "Point Zero" but you should also check out their remix of Tiësto's "A Tear In The Open". That one is so beautiful.

And when I see that there is a remix of their's availble on a brand new single, I can be assured that it will be a great one.
