Confusion is good sometimes. It’s a way to start thinking about whatever you are confused about. This is what Ilhan Ersahin’s Istanbul Sessions do since 2008. They managed to fire the stages all across the world: from New York to Istanbul, from Paris to Sao Paolo, from London to Skopje... Questions they spread all these years where like: are they really turkish? is this really jazz? doesn’t it sound like a rock band? how come a jazz ensemble can really be like a band? How can they be so able to jam with any musician they meet on stage? And so on...
It’s a simple fact Ilhan Ersahin, being one of the rare moguls of New York City underground scene via his club and record label (nublu), is traveling all around the world. It’s possible to see him jamming with Red Hot Chili Peppers in Sao Paolo, featuring Bugge Wesseltoft in Blue Note Tokyo and/or playing a beautiful oriental set with turkish gypsies in an elegant concert hall somewhere in Europe. His newyorker energy is with him all the time.
How about Istanbul Sessions then? It’s a summary of all you read above. Master level musicianship meets a high eclecticism where the cliché of “east-to-west crossover” finds its true sense and power.
A session is a meeting of a deliberative body to conduct its business. In this case, the business is music, and the music is another heavyweight long player from Ilhan Ersahin & crew.
Upon listening to the record for the first time, one word overrides every other emotion and devours the mind: Cinema.
More specifically, “cinematic.” Ersahin’s sax sounds like it was recorded in the fucking Alps. Or in the sweeping sand dunes and Oasis’s of the Middle East. It’s just that W I D E. On “Falling,” Ersahin’s sax is practically 3-dimensional. Double tracked and bathed in a healthy dose of reverb, the saxophone and rhythm of the band evoke a story-like narrative. From the mad-man trills strewn throughout the track, to the soaring, almost stadium anthem chorus. Clearly, it’s all about the (s)axe, and Ilhan Ersahin is YOUR axeman.
History has a tendency to repeat itself, and for the third time ‘round, East meets West once again. And the results are more satisfying than that mammoth inter-racial orgy you’re always fantasizing of. Through Ersahin’s playing, you can hear the ghostly echoes of dead, pre-war jazz greats behind his frenzy-inducing saxophone playing. You can also hear the Siren’s call, the brooding beauty of the shrouded mystery that is the Desert. Devilishly hot and bothered, the dry night air caresses your face, stirring a primal urge that excites as you step out into the glow of the Turkish metropolis. An Istanbul session, awaits.

“highly distinctive new sound that connects the dense modal funk of Miles Davis' Agartha group with middle-eastern melodies and spikes it with a potent shot of dub electronics.”

Take a deep breath and relax. Look at the beautiful and abundant patterns created by nature. Hear them reverberating in your mind. Let them flow and let them inspire you. Dream the truth and let your dreams come true. Live and listen in Patterns.

Patterns

Yorgunluğumdan değil, tembelliğimden.
Huyumdan değil cesaretsizliğimden.
Ne istediğimi bilmedim, ne istemediğimi bildiğim kadar.

Yaşamın anlamını bulmadım, bulamadım.
Bir bilen var mı diye sormadım, soramadım
Dünyanın çivisini ben mi çıkardım?
Öldürün beni 
Bi' saniye! 
Durup dinlenmek için çok geç kaldım
Durup dinlenmek için çok geç artık.

İçimdeki boşluklardan bir insan yaptım
Aynalara bakıp aldandım
Yaşamak güzel mi, yoksa öyle mi sandım?
Güzel mi, bir an için öyle mi sandım?

Beni bana bırak, cesaretim yok senin kadar
İster sev ister nefret et neye yarar?
Kötü günler sonunda güzel günlere bağlar elbet
Her yağmurdan sonra güneş doğar,
Senin geçmişin farklı benden,
Benim istediklerim,
İçimde ağırlaşacak.
Senin geçmişin farklı,
Benim sürüklediklerim
İçimde ağırlaşacak.

A Drop of Luck
Adaptations and sources in the music of Turkish and Israeli female singers

Visit www.ladiesonrecords.com to read the whole story.

"Songs are energetic and conversational creatures, alive to us in time and space. They think us as we think them".
Martin Stokes

For more than a decade, Israel, has been present in my musical explorations. For the same reason, a couple of years ago, I moved to Turkey to understand the intricate cultural patterns of music. Israel and Turkey are, no doubt, the vivid centers of popular music cosmopolitanism. Both realities are interesting and puzzling at the same time, reflecting their challenging geography and history. To name their geographical location as Asia or Europe, the Mediterranean region or the Middle East evokes ideas and contexts, not free from political or stereotypical judgments. Popular Music and its products - songs tell the stories of people and their culture. But they are also one of the best and most efficient tools of political engineering and creating cultural identity and national particularity.

Resemblances between Turkish and Israeli popular music of the last couple of decades are stunning. They are far more than the idea of a shared Mediterranean vibe of nightclubs, taverns, and casinos with dinner, music, and belly dancers. The mechanisms behind the creation of popular Turkish and Israeli music, from the 60s until the 2000s, reflect striking correlations in the process of re-establishing identities with exclusions and inclusions of specific cultural patterns.

As usually in my work, I will let the women speak and present the fascinating story of adaptations and sources in Turkish and Israeli Music. No music is apolitical and naive. I will try to trace the essential contexts - including musical, religious, ethnic, and political ones. Following Marshall McLuhan's famous statement that the medium is the message, "A Drop of Luck" also explores a story of a medium – vinyl, cassette, and CDs and their impact on societies through mass-production and distribution of music and cultural messages. The invention of a portable cassette recorder was a political and social breakthrough for many communities worldwide.

Listen to the mixtapes and experience the journey of songs between Israel and Turkey. The mixtape "Adaptations" takes you to the center of the story. Turkish and Israeli artists embraced the songs from Israel and Turkey, respectively, utilizing them to express their local political and cultural messages. You can explore the origins of the songs with the "Sources" mixtape and dive into the selection of songs from Israel and Turkey.
