MIRROR OF TRUTH & SAYA SURA” Truth in the Mirror…

Mehmet Güldağ is back on the market with his third album, Hakkın Aynası & Saya Sure (Mirror of Truth & Red Apple), released by Kalan Müzik.
An academician at Instrument Manufacturing Department in Ege University, Mehmet Güldağ contemplates his own truth through the mirror in his new album. Outside the mirror are Western Turkey, instrument making, city, guitar and Turkish, whereas childhood, nature, Zazaki and baglama as a toy are hidden in it. He uses the metaphor of red apple, a symbol of invitation in Zaza culture, to summon music lovers to share his truth. Here is a single clue to understand the sincerity of this call: All eight pieces in the album are composed by Güldağ himself; the arrangements comprise variety of instruments, including short-stem baglama, three-string baglama, electric guitar, drums and zurna. The album allows you to access to sounds of transformation of Güldağ as a person, and of hundreds of instruments he manufactured in person up until today. We hope this effort will be a contribution to our common memory…
