Είναι δύσκολο να ξαναγράψει κανείς μετά από χρόνια απουσίας και να ξαναμιλήσει για τέχνες και ελευθερία... Μα και πως ν' αρχίσεις;
Θα μπορούσε να γίνει σε εντελώς "επίσημο" αλλά και σε εντελώς "φιλικό" επίπεδο το όλον. "Θα αρχίσεις επιτέλους:!"
Ως γνωστό, Μάχη και Νικόλας, προσπαθούμε εδώ και χρόνια να κρατήσουμε άσβεστη τη σπίθα για δημιουργία από κοινού. Μέσα στα χρόνια της κρίσης, το "από κοινού" περιορίστηκε, αλλά η όλη δυσκολία "γέννησε" μουσικά έργα κι όχι μόνο, οπότε, είμαστε δραστήριοι. Σε σημείο που να στηθούν από το μηδέν συνολικά 6 άλμπουμ σε διάστημα 4 ετών!!! Κι όλο αυτό στο σπιτικό μας στουντιάκι.
Παρόν λοιπόν, και συνεχίζουμε!
Μετά την παύση εργασιών στο στρατόπεδο Art of joy project και το δεύτερο και τελευταίο μας station, κι αμέσως μετά το πρότζεκτ των Gas Alley, ξεκίνησα να συγκεντρώνω τραγούδια τα οποία θα αποτελούσαν την πρώτη μου ψηφιακή "δουλειά" ως Nickolas G. (Cross-Eyed, 2015). Το 2016 η Μάχη αποφασίζει το πρώτο της βήμα στην ηχογραφημένη ποίηση-διήγηση ως Mahi με το "Sorrows' Diary". Την ίδια χρονιά Nickolas G και φίλοι ξεκινούν ένα ψηφιακό άλμπουμ με διασκευές μπλουζ, ώστε 16 συμμετοχές αργότερα και αρχές του 2017 κυκλοφορεί το Sacred Bums. Την ίδια χρονιά, άνοιξη, στο Night-Mail Home Studio, ξεκινάν τις πρόβες τους οι Βολιώτες πανκ-ρόκερς Βρουμόσκλα και το φθινόπωρο του 2017 ηχογραφούν και μιξάρουν το ψηφιακό τους άλμπουμ "Λύσσα η μαρμελάδα". Το 2018 ηχογράφησα μόνος μου όλα τα όργανα για το πρότζεκτ Green Man, και το demo "Die Having Fun", ενώ, το 2019, ως one man band αυτή τη φορά δημιούργησα ως Nickolas G. το ψηφιακό άλμπουμ "I Don't Like You".

Switch to Greek
Hello people, and a very Happy New Year!!!
Since our last post, loads has changed. As stated previously, our home-studio is active and some posts are coming your way with some fresh music. Nonetheless, we have decided in our blog posts to swap from English to Greek, since most of our readers and our HQ are located in Greece. So, to make up for the inconvenience, we've decided to create eventually a facebook official page where all our news will be in English, for all you supporting us from abroad.
Stay tuned, more to come!

A Change of Course
Greetings!
Long time since the last update folks....
We consider NMP being a true survivor during these harsh times in its own unique way.
All kind of problems make our daily routine a constant struggle, trying to set back all our artistic projects. Even the so called "Greek austerity" takes turns in beating us daily.
Nevertheless our artistic spark is still alive and adopted to our daily problems. Night-Mail has always had the tendency to move as circumstances require.
So folks, here is a reality update on our current goals and projects:
- The basic idea still goes the same: Night-Mail Productions promotes
anything artistic, within its powers.
- We run all our projects within a true real low budget and
self-funding from the artist.
- We wish our future projects to be crowd-funded orientated.
- The fanzine project is terminated, due to limited turnout of
partners and artists.
- No more "Stations" will be held, unless crowd-funded or publicly demanded.
- The survivor during these harsh times is Night-Mail's Home-Studio,
with ongoing active recordings, jamming sessions, singles and CD
releases. (New posts on what is the new material and how the whole
home-studio runs, coming SOON)
- We are looking for passionate volunteers to help us run the whole
gig. Web designers, sound engineers, PR-manager web orientated
enthusiasts are welcomed. In return we offer good coffee, great
talking partners, serious and tough debates on how things get organized and from time to time delicious home cooked meals.
(Just to make it dead-clear: WE ARE UNABLE TO PROVIDE ANY FORM OF PAYMENT TO ANY VOLUNTEER AT THIS TIME - we are asking you to be part of our team and support your passion for the arts, the DIY way)
Contact us if you wish to contribute in any way.
Cheers!!!
