.
Hi there. This is Ozan Alparslan from Istanbul/Turkey. Welcome to my official myspace page. I am a part-time musician trying to share the music I feel, free from any commercial and social aims. Besides working on my solo project, I do support several projects which I consider promising. The idea of this site is about sharing the drafts, not the tracks, from my forthcoming album and collect comments. I'd be more than glad if you share your most cruel critics. Every single mail will be answered. See y'all soon!

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 6/8/2006
Band Website: ozanalparslan.com(soon)
Band Members: Everything you hear on this page (yeah including the vocals) is played, composed, arranged, recorded, mixed by me at my humble home studio. Details of each songs are at the Lyrics section.

Edit: Expected guests in my own project are (as far as I hope):

Onur Ertem-Drums
Emrecan Sevdin-Drums
Can Dedekarginoglu-Bass Guitars
Bijen Rahimi-Electric Guitars
Ali Genc-Electric Guitars
Kutsal Kaan Bilgin-Electric Guitars&Engineering
Onur Erbas-Engineering

Well the list also makes up my favorite artists, so I am pretty lucky. More to come soon...
Influences: I listen to very few things and everything I hear influences me deeply. The most dominant ones may be, but not limited to; Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Infected Mushroom, Mike Patton, A.C.T., Depeche Mode, Jay Jay Johanson, Jamiroquai, Tower of Power, Muse, Dream Theater, Aziza Mustafa Zadeh, BjÃ¶rk, Kevin Moore, Queen, Cynic, Mr. Bungle, Frank Sinatra, Seal, Erkan Ogur.
Sounds Like: ... my feelings. Technically speaking, I like different things about different styles and try to blend them up. You may hear some pop vocals, metal guitars, progressive rock drums, trance keyboards, funky basses, baroque harmonies, romantic orchestrations. Now take the combinations of what I just have said. I don't have stable, simple feelings, neither do my songs, so this is no pop project trying to catch the trend and hit the minimalists

Record Label: do labels still exist?
Type of Label: None
