"I was really impressed with the theme of sleep that Guy Andrews (@guyandrews) tackled in [MT][NT][ET] and the idea of reflecting the mental activity that occurs during sleep. Based on this concept, I tried to reflect the sudden changes in dream state and the idea of not being able to continue the same dream after waking up, no matter how much we want to. In the artwork, my wife İdil tried to convey the stages descending into deep sleep and changes in mental activity during dreams" ~ Non Square (@nonsquaremusic)

Guy Andrews - 2.5 (Non Square Remix)

Istanbul-born electronic music composer, producer and sound designer Non Square, known as Korhan Oraydın is starting to strongly carve out his own position within the electronic IDM music sphere. This project seeks to touch the lives of many by creating its own sonic realities where it combines different technical disciplines and genres such as glitch, techno, ambient and noise.
Korhan Oraydın became the co-founder of Turkey’s first game-audio studio, Dound Sesign in 2010. In 2015 he decided to focus on his musical output and took part in the Explorer#2 compilation of the French record label, InFiné Music. Shortly after, Oraydın had to take a professional hiatus after having been diagnosed with a health condition, in which he took 3 years out to recover. 2018 saw a promising return back to his passion, Oraydın began working on new pieces under his current stage name, Non Square and one of his tracks was featured by new media artist Refik Anadol in his 2019 exhibition, Infinite Space at Artechouse in Washington, DC and Miami.
Non Square spent his formative years working in many studios in Istanbul, such as Melodika, Jingle Jungle and Istanbul Studios, and studying music education at Bilgi University receiving his B.A. in sound arts and music technologies at Yıldız Technical University.
Having worked in different fields as a sound designer, producer and sound engineer, at the beginning of 2020, he met electronic audio-visual artist and producer Max Cooper through mutual friends Özge Cöne and Rival Consoles and through this meeting joined the London-based record label Mesh founded by Cooper. The 4-track debut EP titled "Hold On" was released by Mesh in November 2020, which premiered on BBC Radio 6 Music by Mary Anne Hobbs. In August 2021, his remix was featured in Max Cooper's Yearning For The Infinite Remixed LP along with remixes from Josh Wink, HAAi, Rob Clouth, Steffi, Fort Romeau and Max Cooper. In October 2021, his second 4-track EP titled "Simple Things in Hard Times" was released with Mesh label. Meanwhile he performed at venues such as the Istanbul Biennial, Salon IKSV, Roxy.
