In Cihan Mürtezaoğlu’s rich catalogue, intimate songcraft inspires bright and melodic pop. “Sanma Yokum” is coffee-house folk with swagger while sparkling electric guitars and shimmering synths give “Bilmeden Güzel” and “Martı” a luxurious Balearic feel. Meanwhile “Kör Dünya” hints at an alternate reality where Laurel Canyon is perched on the banks of the Bosphorus, all twanging guitars amidst Mürtezaoğlu’s wide vibrato. It all demonstrates his greatest skill: filtering pop idioms through a Turkish lens to create a familiar but distinctive sound.
