Cem Yıldız and “Ben Uçarım Gökler Uçar” album
“Since my conservatory period, I have always been in search of a different sound. In this process, I spent a lot of time connecting this sound with my instrument and Turkish folk music. In this journey that I started with Orient Expressions and continued with Insanlar bands, the contribution of my foreign musician friends with whom we have signed many collaborations is undeniable. My first solo recording KÜN in 2019, followed by ŞAH and BEN UÇARIM GÖKLER UÇAR albums released on digital platforms are the concrete state of this search for a sound that I have been following for a long time”.
