18 Years of Sound: My Entire Discography Is Now Streaming

No money. No computer of my own. Waiting for my housemates to finish so I could produce tracks in a cold Ankara flat. 18 years later, I've revisited every album and put them all in one place.

I've been listening, learning, and experimenting with music for as long as I can remember. The producing started in 2005. The first album came in 2007.

Tough conditions. Good times.

No money. No computer of my own. Waiting for my housemates to finish so I could have my turn, producing tracks in a cold Ankara flat, breath visible, fingers stiff on the keys.

That was 18 years ago.

Since then, I've learned more than I can measure. Witnessed technology transform from limitation to liberation. Watched the tools become accessible to anyone with the discipline to use them.

But somewhere along the way, I neglected the music itself.

Life got busy. The albums sat in folders. The work I made in those cold rooms went unheard.

The Revisit

This year, I went back to everything I've recorded. Every album. Every track. I changed the covers. Updated the catalogs on SoundCloud and Bandcamp. Gave the work the presentation it deserved from the start.

And now it's all in one place.

All albums are streamable via Bandcamp widgets. No barriers, just music.

Why Now

At 41, I stopped waiting for perfect conditions. The 23-year-old in that freezing Ankara flat didn't wait. He made music with whatever he had.

Time to honour that.

If you're into ambient, electronic, cinematic soundscapes, or if you've ever neglected something you once loved, this is for you.
