Türkçe

November, 2009: You are about to listen to Kit0's new album, Turkish for Turkish, spelled Türkçe, which is Turkish for Turkish.

Relax. Dispel every other thought. Let the world around you fade. Best to close the door. Find the most comfortable position: seated, stretched out, curled up, or lying flat.

In an easy chair, on the sofa, or if you have a hammock ... Maybe take a pee or prepare a fresh bowl ?

If you haven't yet begun to download the album it's OK, you've got time. Mark a note on your calendar for next week. Make a date with your home stereo.

Türkçe is a 2 hour exploration: 39 tracks chosen from 15 CD's that I unwrapped only days ago myself, after returning from İstanbul. Bit of a cliche, I know, to travel and make a mix of the music found in foreign lands. I could only hope to achieve a chinoseries.
