[dj] Leama and Moor plac[e]

Leama is the globally respected UK electronic melodic house DJ and producer responsible for several high profile original productions and collaborations which have propelled him to a top 50 positioning in the US URB Magazine DJ Poll and created the platform for a series of global tours taking the worlds leading dance floors by storm.

With early influences accredited to electronic music dignitaries Sasha and Laurent Garnier along with rock bands such as Pink Floyd / Tangerine dream , and taking great influence in music from films, Leama aims to create his own diverse yet universally appealing sound, combining elements of house, tech-house, deep electronic and nu- progressive along with ambient and breaks, summed up best by Leama as "electronic melodica' feel good music".

Beginning his production career back in 1997, early collaborations with Tilt , and Malcolm McLaren (sex pistols) were invaluable in setting the standard for the quality of his music, which is evident today both in his solo productions and as one half of melodic progressive house act Leama & Moor.

His production style uses subtle yet familiar ambient undertones, layering soundscapes and placing great emphasis on the importance of melody, which is projected on his debut solo production, Melodica. At it's time of release the track became a particular favourite with maestros such as Sasha, Dave Seaman, Sander Kleinenberg and Paul Oakenfold, who featured the track on his highly successful Travelling - Mix Compilation.

Whilst his joint venture with Tilt under the Odessi guise named 'Moments in Space' gained equal critical acclaim and DJ support, the 'Matrix' based track rocketed it's way onto an impressive accolade of prestigious mix compilations including: Euphoria - Deep and Chilled, Dave Seaman's - Renaissance Awakeings , and Anthony Pappas Nu-Breed Mix on Global Underground.

Another project inspired by the silver screen was Leama's massive underground hit 'Requiem for a Dream', released in 2003 on Perfecto Records. The track went on to receive huge global support from the likes of Tiesto, Sander Kleinenberg and James Holden and found it's way onto several major compilations including Tiesto's - Nyana Mix CD , Paul Oakenfolds - Great Wall of China - perfecto , and Ministry of Sounds - Trance Nation Future.

As a DJ, Leama has taken his unique sound to many of the worlds leading events including Muzika in Miami WMC, Pacha in Tel Aviv , MTV party The Cross and Renaissance in the UK whilst becoming a regular feature on the South American circuit with regular tours incorporating Argentina, Aruba, Brazil, Columbia, Ecuador, Mexico and Venezuela.

Whilst his iconic status amongst the elite of America's most respected artists remains strong, Leama's commitments closer to home remain equally impressive as Germany, Greece, Israel, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Finland and The Ukraine are amongst the nations toured by Leama.

With a heavy ongoing production schedule including the long awaited debut 'Leama & Moor' album : featuring deep electronic film-score pieces due for release around march next year and a world tour to boot , 2005 also saw the Leama touch on their remixes of Britney Spears - Someday (leama and moor remix) , and Tiesto - A tear in the open (leama and moor remix) hit the shops and cause a stir.
