About Me



Ilove music, I love when a great band plays a great set.
I value my friends, I hope they do the same.
I prefer when people are straight with me. Cut the crap and be honest with me.
I'm Turkish: born in Turkey, brought up in Europe.

Drama is not for me

I prefer guitar, loud fuzz/drone-like sounds and heavy music, hell I like electronic stuff as well. I also have an unhealthy interest in guitar/studio gear. If I find it interesting/peculiar, I might get my hands on it.

If you like my background picture, go check out John Dyer Baizley's Myspace page. It's his work, I love it.
I do sound for bands. I've worked with the following ones:
Bring Me The Horizon
Fightstar
Architects
Haunts
Gallows

And many more...
