"Persistence of Memory depicts a dream state, the melting and distorted clocks symbolize the erratic passage of time that we experience while dreaming, illustrating how useless, irrelevant, and arbitrary our normal concept of time is inside the dream state. 

Dali's ambition was to "materialize images of concrete irrationality with the most imperialist fury of precision." Dali painted images from a dream world in such exacting clarity and meticulous detail that viewers feel they are entering a hallucinatory landscape. He called these paintings hand-painted dream photographs. They contain strange and bizarre juxtapositions of objects, and the transformation of one form into another form."

Scenes from a Memory | Part 5 - The Persistence of Memory

Hailing from the vibrant fabric of Istanbul, the city where continents collide and cultures intertwine, bilgeco emerges as a musical alchemist, fusing the mystique of the East with the pulsating energy of the West. Now firmly anchored in the mesmerizing embrace of Amsterdam's electronic music scene, bilgeco stands as a cross-cultural conduit, using his melodies to build sonic bridges that span the globe.

Stepped into the electrifying energy of Amsterdam’s nightlife, bilgeco commanded stages at established venues like WesterUnie and -the iconic- Loft alongside international artists under the Hunkering label. A collaboration with Berlin based Sound of Utopia took him back to his homeland, where he has been a resident in multiple editions of the Dream of Utopia Festival.

In his spellbinding sets, he embarks on nothing short of a magical journey: organic house blended with dreamy oriental melodies, powerful African percussions, bouncy house beats and spacey synths. He acts as a harmonious force, a navigator of sound who traverses borders, genres and cultures with finesse.

bilgeco believes music is more than sound; it's an emotion that reaches deep within. So, close your eyes, open your heart and enjoy.
