About Murat Gökçe

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. it was my first ''big'' concert, when I was in high school at the age of 17. With my metal band, which was quite marginal at those times, we performed for more than 5000 people. That was like a dream but at the same time very very exciting for me. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Arthur H, Les 50 plus belles chansons de Arthur H David Bowie, David Bowie David Byrne, American Utopia All these 3 amazing singer song writers had great influences on my music making progress. In particular, their melodic and poetic music at the same reformer approach for new sound and genres has been always a leading guide for me. 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. “Ben Süpermen Değilim” this songs perhaps reflects the major characteristic of my music at most. A rather steady/recitative verse that leads to a catchy chorus with plain lyrics. At the same time a bit surprise on the arrangement i.e. improvised scatting at intro/outro. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? the song writing and production periods of my second album, which I have completed recently, were the most memorable moments in my career. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Besides being a singer song writer, I perform free improvisation as a singer with several jam session bands and DJs, in which I mainly create melodies by using scatting technique or a kind of a non-existing language that is made up by myself.
