@badmxsh is a record label dedicated to cultivating the underground culture and underground music of Turkey.

Istanbul’s dearest Badmash is 5 years old! To celebrate this, they released a compilation album “5 years of Badmash”, involving 23 local and foreign artists, late January. And today, to celebrate this moment with the Badmash collective and longtime listeners, we are having a BADMASH takeover on Root.

I create in order to contribute to the shared experience of the world. I believe that the purpose of my life is to collect the widest variety of the most intense experiences I can find, and use these experiences as fuel for my own self-expression. That which I create, in turn, sparks creativity and curiosity in others, showing them the totality of my experience, expressed through the lens of my subjective truth.

I create hypnotic, heavy, and cinematic bass music with a sharp focus on beautiful textures and playful rhythms. The entrancing beats, beautiful textures, and deep, animalistic bass tempt you to submit deeper into the experience, whilst the fusion of the organic and the artificial decorate the sonic landscape that accompanies you on a journey through your imagination. 

2023 has been a big year. With releases on High Vibe Records, Sub-Label Recordings, and Unfinished Monkey Records, as well as support from ill.Gates’ Producer Dojo, I'm continuing to develop and express my distinct and captivating sound. The highlight of my 2023 was being named as a featured artist on the High Vibe Records website. If 2023 was big, 2024 will be MASSIVE - watch out for new releases, collabs, and live shows.

Also known as DJ Jihad and many other aliases on occasion
