IR: Turkey (English) – Insomnia Radio: Indie Music Network

After 2 years from the last episode of IR Turkey we are back with a new episode and new songs. A lot has happened in this 2 year period and it was really impossible to produce a show. However, it’s in the past and IR Turkey is not in the dead pool 🙂

We’ll see if we will be able to continue with the show, I’ll do my best. Let’s focus on the moment and enjoy the following 6 tracks from 5 different independent artists:

Hi everyone, the 4th episode of IR Turkey is here. You know what, we need to find a name for you IR Turkey fans. It is becoming lame to say “Hi everyone”. How would you like to be called?

In this episode, I am unfortunately alone, all by myself. It is the end of semester here and Hande has loads of stuff to finish and she could not spare time for the recording. We decided that I do the show alone this time since we did not want to give too much of a break. As I was being silly I forgot to mention this at the begining of the episode but I am sure you figured it out that I was alone, right?

A message to Hande’s fans: “Don’t worry she will be back in the next episode!” 🙂

I think this episode has a killer playlist and it is why I call this episode is the bomb.

It is been a little longer than I would like since the previous episode but life interfered and we could not get it done earlier. However, as always we have some great music lined up for you. In this 3rd episode I am joined by Hande again. We had a nice time recording and listening to the songs and had some conversation in between which we thought was nice 🙂 As we did in the previous episode we translated the band and song names and this time we tried to translate the meaning of the song as well:

Hello again. I am here with the second episode of IR Turkey. In this episode, I had a better microphone, a better sound quality, 5 great bands and songs. Also, there is surprise!

This episode is “The One with My Wife”. Hande joined in recording this episode and we had a lot of fun recording the show. We just hope you that you will have a great time listening to it as well. As always, let us know what you think about the show and give us some feedback. We would love to hear it!

Notes:

We forgot to talk about this on the episode but Sinem whose song “Boom Sheka Nena” we heard on the first episode is in the finals of John Lennon Songwriting Contest with that same song in the World Music category. If you liked her song you can vote for her here.

As always, thanks for listening. Please remember to get in touch with the bands that you liked and let them now that you heard them on IR Turkey.

Spread the word about IR Turkey!

We are going to take a wild ride to the world of Turkish music. There is a very a long time between the birth of the idea and this day but I am finally here with the first episode. When I say the first episode, it not only means the first one of hopefully many IR Turkey shows but my very first time being behind a mic. Believe me, you can tell when you listen.

But please bear with me as we go along and remember that there is always room for growth So, now, fasten your seatbelts because we are flying transatlantic to hear some awesome tunes by Turkish artists.
