Innocent Fallacy

This is a sonic expression of a car chasing scene with inspirations coming from Massive attack's shady hip-hop tunes.
Rather than classic song arrangement wordings, Whomanity consists of INHALES - EXHALES- (and dominantly) HOLD THE BREATH parts.
Restless Kickdrums, a middle-eastern ritualistic tension, obsessively repetitive dark jazzy piano chords, and the preaching power of hip hop rhymes(hold breath) meets gloomy strings and trumpet parts. (inhales).

Whomanity

"..hayatta hicbir seyim az olmadi senin kadar ..."  demek isterdim duyabilsen 


Bunu yaptım senin için.


Nothing in life is less than you

one of my farewell anthems to my lovely father and fellow ; Bulent Ozlu

Yellow is the new black

a minimal piano based passage about a childish fairytale.The snowtiger fell in love with a snowflake.

La tigre e la neve

A piano based song powered by symphonic strings and ambient elements.With the inspiration of Theo Angelopoulos's masterpiece " Eternity and a Day ".The greek dialog in the middle of the song is taken from the movie.
How long does tomorrow lasts? for an angry heart it may be as eternity .

Mother of Blue

Eskiden bisiklet tekerleklerine taktigimiz boncuklarin sesi ile basladi bu cover fikri.
Ne cesaret oturdum bastan duzenledim kaydettim herseyin ustune bir de soyledim, insan bazen hayret ediyor.
karantina zamanlarinin yarattigi depresyon olsa gerek.
ustalara saygilarla.

soz: kemal burkay
