Saadet Türköz’s influences spread far and wide. Born in 1961, the singer grew up on the Bosporus where Europe and Asia meet. Her ancestors were nomads who migrated from Semey in Kazakhstan to East Turkestan from where they fled via India and Pakistan to Istanbul. But Istanbul, international city, modern metropolis and history-laden cultural crucible, is not the only place to have influenced her.

Considering that Edip Akbayram was still active in 2006 and, in fact, enjoying a comeback of sorts in Turkey, some people might think this two-CD self-titled album is a career-encompassing "best-of."

What they came up with is an infectious, personal, and deeply honest form of psychedelic rock…

Amoureux des percussions persanes, le trio Chemirani – Djamchid Chemirani et ses deux fils Keyvan et Bijane – met en valeur ici toute la complexité et l’harmonie qu’offrent des instruments comme le zarb, le daf, l’udu et le bendir. Les voix percussives se mélangent jusqu’à ce qu’il devienne difficile pour l’auditeur d’identifier les six mains en jeu ; l’on prend alors du recul pour apprécier l’œuvre dans sa globalité, profiter de la poésie persane dans laquelle le trio a puisé et dont s’inspirent les rythmes traditionnels. La famille Chemirani alterne titres entièrement percussifs (Mochaéré, Kam Kam) et mélodies orientales au chant parlé (To Bandégui, Dawâr) pour un album qui laisse rêveur.
