In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. One of my earliest musical memories is from when I was a child in Ankara, sitting in my room and strumming of my guitar. I remember being mesmerized by the soundtrack of "Sleepy Hollow" by Danny Elfman, which sparked my passion for creating music.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Danny Elfman, Sleepy Hollow Ennio Morricone, The Mission (Original Sound Track from the Film) Hans Zimmer, Interstellar (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) [Deluxe Version] Sleepy Hollow introduced me to the power of dark, immersive scoring, Interstellar expanded my understanding of how music can evoke complex emotions, and The Mission demonstrated the art of blending beauty with narrative depth.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Laning 2” Laning 2, it perfectly encapsulates my style of blending traditional orchestral elements with darker, atmospheric tones. The inclusion of my own throat singing adds a personal touch, making it one of the most unique and powerful pieces I've composed.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? One of the most memorable moments in my career was when I first heard my music played in a packed theater during the premiere of a film I scored. The experience of feeling the audience react to the emotions my music was conveying was unforgettable.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I've always wanted to create a full-length concept album that tells a story purely through music, blending orchestral, electronic, and ethnic elements. I’m also keen on collaborating with a film director from the start of a project to create a score.
