Hijazz Project @ Istanbul

Hijazz Project is a gathering place of the most famous musicians in Turkey. For them, Hijazz Project is a way to surrender their togetherness in this music of synthesis they make hand in hand, without any ego, matching to the idea of Mevlana and Sufism. They play from Hamamizade Ismail Dede Efendi to W. A. Mozart… from Hasselman to Nayi Osman Dede… from J.S.Bach to Tamburi Cemil Bey.. mixed with the jazzy mood.

Hijazz Project (Istanbul, Turkey)

Hijazz Project is a gathering place of the most famous musicians in Turkey. Each one individually has their own bands and personal projects, play in different festivals, working in different productions. Hijazz Project for them, is a way to surrender their togetherness in this music of synthesis they make hand in hand, without any ego, matching to the idea of Mevlana and Sufism. They play from Hamamizade Ismail Dede Efendi to W.A.Mozart… from Hasselman to Nayi Osman Dede.. from J.S.Bach to Tamburi Cemil Bey.. mixed with the jazzy mood, powered by Budapest Symphonical Orchestra conducted by Alparslan Ertungaalp. HiJazz Project’s first concert was supported by Turkiye Is Bankasi in 2003. in 2007 the band is supported by Arif Mardin (R.I.P), who had great effort for Hijazz Project to perform in the Istanbul Jazz Festival. He made it but passed away on the concert day. So we dedicate our 2007 Istanbul Jazz Festival performance to his loving memory. He was the only music producer in the world who made the world a better place.

ORIENTAL MEDIA NETWORK

If you are involved into oriental music, this is your place - welcome to ORIENTAL MEDIA NETWORK.

In 2002, I founded ORIENTAL MEDIA NETWORK as a record label, together with an affiliated publishing company. On the label, I first released a compilation called The Best of Turkish Rap & RnB Volume 1. In the next year, followed by Taner Akyol Trio´s debut-album Traveller. Also in 2003, an exclusiv studio project called COMA - Electrique FASIL, followed. Since then, I enjoy very much to support artists in bookings, releases, legal affairs, licensing, compilations, digital distribution, radio-promotion, etc. - no matter where you live and work, as long as you are moving on music with oriental patterns…

You are a musician? Maybe you are a producer, a composer, a promoter, a label-owner, a DJ or a supporter - no matter what you do, as long as you are into oriental music, I am very much interested to meet yo. We might find a common point to make oriental music moving. Let´s get connected.
