Hi all!

Possibly it s a stupid question, but anyway - does Rock exist in Turkiye? the country is always associated with pop music which i don't really like...When I was in Turkiye I couldn't find any rock, only pop Can you recommend something and give links to mp3 files?

I like any rock from Rammstein to Beatles, Scorpions ballads etc.

Thank you in advance!

Beautiful balads of Haluk Levent, interesting specific voice of Duman's vocalist, a few of Ogun Sanlisoy's songs are also good. try Pentagram, it's metal group, but I would say light metal. Some of it's songs are really great, for example Anatolia. As SuiGeneris said, Kurban and Kirac are also good. Teoman sings in a verz specific waz, not everybody may like it, but I suggest you trying

and also Feridun Düzağaç...

how bout pentagram,
and if you need smth harder,then try moribund oblivion

and Şebnem Ferah is very good...

Hello folks,
on this subject I cant be bothered with standard information. I will be uploading some mp3 files choosen from my archieve.

Cheers

Songs:
1. Sen Bana Baharla Geldin

If I had to choose 10 top songs of all times of Turkish Rock this song definately would be one of them. Unfortunately many Turks are not aware of this song. The singer has died at his very young age and the group wasnt the same afterwards.

For many years many Turkish artist thought the sounds in Turkish words were not suitable for rock music. These people should listen to that song.

Here we have the secong group I would like to suggest. They are not one of my favorites but they are ok. Unfortunately uploading takes too much time so I might put the rest another time.

Group: Duman
Album: Bu Akşam

Songs:
1. Bu Aksam
4. Bebek
7. Hatun
9. Herşeyi Yak

Here we have another interesting music band. This was their best and only good album and unfortunately afterwards they changed their style and their vocalist and they are just a useless group now.


Group: Kargo
Album: Sil Baştan
Songs:

1. Bir Zamanlar
2. Sil Baştan
3. Ortaköy
4. Günaydın Paris
5. Yanımda Sen Olmayınca

7. Fırtına
8. Sanı
9. Yıllar Sonra
10. Kim Bu insanlar

How about Teoman!

I love Teoman! Actually I liked his songs even though I didn't know they were his Luckily, a good friend enlightened me. I'd recommend Teoman to anybody who likes rock. If anybody wants an mp3, PM me and I can send it

Here is my favorite Turkish Rock Music group. They write the lyrics and make the music themselves. I find their music very original. To be honest I think the song "Siyah Beyaz" is a better song in any aspect than Metallica's balads "Nothing Else Matters" or "Unforgiven".

This album is really special. I definately would say many of these songs if not all of them are amongst the best Turkish rock music songs ever.

The group doesnt have too many fans. They dont like to be very popular.

Group: Pilli Bebek
Album: Utandırmadan
Songs:

1. Açılsın Gözlerin
2. Berrak
3. Fotoğraf
4. Hilal'in Sarkısı
5. Kara Diller
6. Kedi
7. Malabadi Köprüsü
8. Sakarya
9. Siyah Beyaz
10. Yoluna Baş Koy

Full Album 51MB

If you want to be blessed look no further. You need to listen this song:

Siyah beyaz

Siyah beyaz düşlerimde seni hatırlarım
Bomboş ellerimde seni duyumsarım
Sensiz gecelerde sensiz ağlarım
Sonsuz gecelerde sensiz ağlarım

Fırtınalar sabahında doğan günü duyumsarım
Mevsimlerin sıcağında susuzluğa kanarım
Yitip giden insanlara, dostlarıma ağlarım
Yanlış zamanlara, sensizliğe ağlarım

Nedensiz sorgusuz bir rüya gözlerimde
Nedensiz sorgusuz bir duvar benliğimde

Siyah beyaz düşlerimde seni hatırlarım
Bomboş ellerimde seni duyumsarım
Sensiz gecelerde sensiz ağlarım
Sonsuz gecelerde sensiz ağlarım

This is another very strong song from the album:

Berrak
Berrak sudaki kırmızı balık
Sana canım demek için
Canımdan bir parça ve ışıksız gecelerin
Sessiz özgürlüklerini verdim
Dışı sevda içi zindan değilim artık

Gözlerimden süzen güvensizliği kuşkuyu
Hiç bu renk bir sevgiyle yenmedim
Ve güzelim sana sunduğum değerleri
Karşılıkların içinde büyütmedim
Dışı sevda içi zindan değilim artık

Şebnem Ferah - Absolutely fantastic!

Thanks to evryonne for the links, I downloaded many new music, it's very cool, especially I liked ballad and Teoman (special thanks to Daydreamer) well, i heard about Karaman, but couldn't find their music in the Internet, does anybody know links?

Thanks in advance

Hello slavica,
here is the song "Siyah Beyaz". Yes you are right about the Pilli Bebek's album being too big in size but unfortunately this song is also a long one (over 10 minutes) and is not very small in size: 9.42 MB. Cheers.

Wow I didn't know that Pilli Bebek is from Ankara. It was extremely hard to find their album even in Turkey but I finally got it from a friend from Istabul

I like also Kedi song Its very lyric but beautiful I think.

Yes it is. From "Uyandirmadan" album.

A few messages above, here on this topic, on page 2 you can find their whole album. Check my post on, 15 Oct 2005 Sat 05:30 pm. I already posted the names of songs there.

Greetings,
here are 5 songs of the band "Mavi Sakal". I have picked them from two different albums. The mp3's aren't the best quality this time. I like the one on the top best and so on.

Many thanks to Erdinc for posting all those songs.
I've been downloading my little heart out (with dial up, yet) and am feeling rather "blessed" now myself.

with dial up... o dear.. u poor soul.. i feel ur pain...

[QUOTE Teoman.. a great singer.. QUOTE]

let me ask you a question.teoman a rock singer?for you...

even if he is not a rock singer...he has a different way and original....teoman is good

i know that he is an original one but i mean his latest songs not have rock sound just like pop songs,however his lyrics are great anyway...

well.. i totally love the new song... ZAFERLERİM...demir demirkan... great clip too hehe what do u peoplez think of it??

demir demirkan is one of the best about rock.. with his unique songs and lyrics... kahpe and belki are my favorites from them... and i recommend you to watch Yuxexes on dream tv on wednesday nights for being aware of turkish rock

dream tv? or dream türk..? coz whenever i open dream tv all i see is madonna...? :S

i meant that special program "Yuxexes" on dream tv...

i have just got turkish channels... well actually about a month ago.. so havent discovered this channel myself yet... i dont really watch it hehe but i will definitely check this "special programme" out now... thanks

Hi!

I just wanted to say thank you to those of you who recommended music on this thread!

I have downloaded some of them and the music is great, though I can´t understand the lyrics...yet!

Anyway...I liked them all; pilli bebek, whisky, kargo, manga, kirac and not least teoman!

Many years from now I learned to speak spanish, and listening to songs and eventually learn the lyrics helped alot!

Best regards from Aslan

Şebnem Ferah! Attila recommended her and............She ROCKS!

şebo is the BEST!!!

i have only heard her most recent song.. what are the others like??

On page 3 there are a few songs of "Mavi Sakal" that I picked. Most of the songs are only downloaded once. Slavica is it you who downloaded them? I think noone cares on this group.

well actually I was trying to download them but I'm either technologically challenged or my pc has some trouble. I'd sure like to listen to those songs

Hi Daydreamer!

I downloaded some of the songs with the link given here at the thread...but it was quite slow so I downloaded most of the songs with the programme "limewire pro" which is the best downloading programme I know of.

Good luck!

/Aslan

Gretings,
it's very easy.
1. Click on one of the links below and a page will open. 2. On that page on the top right it will say "please wait 45 seconds, 44,43,..." and
3. when the countdown finishes it will show the button "download here".
4. Click on it and a box will appear with these options: open, save, cancel.
5. Choose save and selecet the location. Location can be anywhere on your computer. The easiest is "desktop".
6. This time the songs are not zipped so you can listen straight away by double clicking on them after downloading. Cheers.
