The idea of Saska rooted from a home recorded cassette
of Savas Çagman Coskun; which is dated to January
1997. By the help of Sarp Keskiner's insistant
encouragement, the project accelerated to a duo format
of Coskun and Dönderici; mainly focusing on sound
construction diciplines like microsound, random
sampling and looping of sounds of any objects which can create a
sound.In summer 1999, Coskun decided to experiment singing
on those loops; while matching them with
traditional music forms of Northern Asia and Caucasian
regions like Ossetia-Alania, Karachevo-Malkar, Chuvashistan, Mari El and Sayan-Altay.During the discussional meetings in Ankara, in August
2002, Keskiner and Coskun re-shaped the sound scape of
Saska: One foot on the vast land of silence; the other
on the aesthetic knit of samples. Asymmetric symmetry was the
seed of all ideas.Saska, names it pseudo-traditional concrete music; with a
unique blend of Asian and Caucasian Shamanic musical traditions,
featuring the colors of acoustic-electronica, breakbeat and some Brazilian grooves."Sure, a fly knows where to land; better then you or
us"
