Check It Out: MorMor is Our Soundtrack to a Hazy Afternoon

MorMor is a 27-year-old musician creating ethereal psychedelic R&B which sends you into a dreamy haze. His new EP, Some Pace Else, is slow and dreamy, genty floating listeners up into a David Lynch-esque world before letting up the trippy synths and pulling us back down to reality.

“I am always drifting in-between worlds,” MorMor told NME in an interview. “I guess I like making music that’s dream-like but also melancholic. ‘Get Away’ was definitely inspired by a David Lynch [Twin Peaks creator] world as there’s this innocence and openness to it, but it can still be haunting too.”

One of the characteristics that make MorMor’s hazy EP unique is his distinctive falsetto. He floats seamlessly between piercing high notes and soothing low notes, showing off his impressive range. Ultimately though, what makes MorMor’s voice special is its ability to capture his emotion honestly.

“I made the ‘Some Place Else EP’ in two months,” he explained. “It is painfully sparse in places, but looking back I was processing a really painful situation and the music was my escapism, hence the title. It captured the pain I felt that Winter. I wanted a level of honesty, pain, and truth in the music, so it isn’t overproduced or too groovy.”
