I don’t know where the title for this one came from, I guess there is a sense of playfulness but also of a certain struggle in the theme of the track. It is based on Arabic music, especially the music of the Arabian peninsula, with its microtonal melody and its African-like syncopation. My good fr...
I was trying to go for a balkan-informed theme on this one, with it’s simple melodic lines. I went for a funky swinging beat and Sakir gave it an almost Bollywood feeling to it with his percussion playing. It also is a rather danceable tune, showing my lighter side. Here I played the electric bass...
This is another jam that evolved into a complete piece. I built this one with my beatboxing, my breaths and my basses, using what was available to me to create something between a Turkish Roma rhythm and an Afro-influenced groove, all through a slightly experimental and avant-garde prism. This one t...
‘All the Senses Become One' is a song in Greek talking about beauty. It describes a beautiful human being passing by and spreading their positive energy around. It is a piece that stylistically lies somewhere between the music of Greece and the Near East and American R&B music that I grew up liste...
This is a composition that I wrote for a collaboration with filmmaker Khaled Tanji. It is a short art film that we actually haven’t made yet, however, I thought that the tone of the piece would really fit the overall concept of the album. It is named after my beloved wife, imagining her starting t...
It was a cold spring night when I plugged in my bass and jammed over this rhythmic loop. It is a rather funky and bluesy little solo, on a single note bass line. I remember listening to a lot of Sly and the Family Stone(One of my favorite Soul/Funk groups) around the days that I played this. As the ...
‘Baseline’, just like ’Up’, is one of those bass-melody experiments. It is a bass that becomes a melody and vice versa. This one was first written on paper, without the use of an instrument, in a more conceptual way. I love using bowed basses to be in unison with the pizzicato ones. It reall...
For the third piece of Hane I invited two great musicians and friends. Tamer Temel played soprano and tenor sax and Dimitris Klonis was featured on drums and electronics. It is a composition that sprung out of jamming on a quite polyrhythmic but danceable rhythm. After writing the B and C parts I th...
‘In Between the Lines' was practically an improvisation, with the several muted basses adding their little bricks to create the construction of the track. After programming an electronic drum beat, I realized that what was missing was the organic element that Sakir could add with his percussion. T...
