About Me


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NEW PIS????????????????????????

! ! ! ! ! E S K I P I S ! ! ! ! ! ..
.. Formed in 2003, Pis Yabanci is now in it's third part. Started in reaction against the repetitive and unimaginative Istanbul live music scene - mostly consisting of bands covering western music - PY started out playing experimental noise and jazz with a lineup of Gabriel on bass guitar and programming, Ali on drums and percussion and Mathew on clarinet with all composing. A series of successful gigs, particularly at the notorious 'peyote' in Taksim as well as a favourable article in the artsy 'bant' magazine saw the band begin to make a name for itself.
The second wave of Pis came with the departure of Ali to Europe and the sound inevitably changed. The band grew with the addition of Gerald on vocals, Emre on drums and Arin on bass guitar. This wave promised a harder and more punk orientated edge and saw the band playing a handfull of gigs, most notably in Istanbul's legendery rock club, 'kemanci'.
The third wave is just beginning now with a new line-up consisting of Muratcan, Gerald, Gabriel, Mathew and Alan. The project is entering more performance orientated areas and promises to churn out an introspective, multi-media experience. Stay tuned for Pis Yabanci's phase three .... ..
İstanbul'un canlı müzik sahnesindeki tekrarcı ve hayalgücü yoksunu cover gruplarının başı çektiği ahvale tepki olarak 2003'te tarih sahnesine çıkan Pis Yabancı, elan üçüncü evresini yaşamanın haklı sevinci içindedir. Bas gitar ve programlamada Gabriel, davul ve perküsyonda Ali ve klarnette Matthew'dan müteşekkil kurulan PY, başta deneysel noise ve jazz ile haşır neşirdi. Bilhassa Peyote'de ardı ardına gelen başarılı sahne performanslarının yanı sıra sanat beyinli 'bant' dergisine verilen röportajla grup, kendine bir isim inşa etmeye başlamanın keyfini yaşamaktaydı.
PY'nın İkinci Dalgası Ali'nin Avrupa'ya hicret edip, grubun sound'unun buna istinaden kaçınılmaz olarak değişmesiyle başladı. Vokalde Gerald, davulda Emre ve bas gitarda Arın'ı bünyesine katıp yol alan grubun bu fazı daha sert ve punk etkileşimli bir uçta seyrederken, az ama öz sayıda sahne performanslarından, ki efsane rock kulübü Kemancı'dan burada söz edilebilir, alın akıyla çıkmayı bildi.
An itibariyle Gabriel, Matthew, Gerald, Muratcan ve Alan'dan oluşan yeni line-up ile üçüncü safhasını idrak eden proje kapsamında daha da performans odaklı alanları cephe bilip, introspektif ve multimedya ögeleri içeren bir deneyim vaat etmektedir.
Pis Yabancı'nın Üçüncü Geliş'i için hatta kalın.
