My photography and a soundtrack authentically from the time and place of the photos (heard if not recorded there:
I've just rediscovered this ancient work of mine, a few years pre-Mastodon. More like the era of the camel. Some good tunes,

The second photo (above) is in Istanbul, a view of the historical 16th-Century mosque, Süleymaniye Mosk.
These photographs were taken while crossing the Bosphorus by ferry boat, on the water which divides Europe from Asia.

Russia and Turkey are actively working on creating a gas trading center in Istanbul. The Russian "Gazprom" and the Turkish company BOTAS are to establish it. Energy minister of Turkey stated that storage capacities are being increased, new gas pipelines are being built, and laws allowing gas export in liquefied form have been adopted. According to him, Turkey plays a crucial role in ensuring Europe's energy security. #GasTrading #EnergySecurity

Here is an album-length compilation I made almost exactly 40 years ago, maybe my first - and only - "international mix tape".
Notes: Circa early-mid 1980's. That's the music here.
I was traveling from London to Paris to Istanbul to Kismet...
I taped what I heard on local pop radio in Paris/London, on a "Walk Man", and as I travelled through Turkiye, I used "discos/bibliotheques" - little stores with recent popular 'records' (33 & 45rpm). And turntables and tape recorder. You'd say, "can I have x song and y song?" and they handed you a cassette. So years later (busy with school, life, etc.) I made an audio tape, during my music/recording/radio daze.... Must have played this 1000 times. To date, I'm guessing less than a dozen people have heard this.
It begins with some Euro-pop songs which were highly contagious, like "Da Da Da", and then gets into some spirited traditional/pop Turkish and mult-national music, some very rock, some comedic/theatrical (11:45). Anyway, here we are, going on 2024, 40 years since beginning the making of this. Should be high quality audio despite its age, so.... 🎧 🔉 Have a listen. Imagine yourself on a small boat on the Aegean, deep blue seas, music dancing and singing and swimming, and then to a seaside cafe beneath a disco... and camels.

This country was hit by a strong heatwave last week, with the meteorological service forecasting temperatures reaching up to 43 degree Celsius in parts of the Turkish territory.
Wildfires broke out in the southern and western provinces of Türkiye over the weekend as summer heat grips a large swathe of the country.

Die Türkei hadert mit der englischen Schreibweise ihres Landesnamen. In der internationalen Diplomatie will sie nicht mehr "Turkey" genannt werden, sondern "Turkiye". Grund ist die Zweideutigkeit des englischen Namens.#Türkei #Turkey #Turkiye #Umbenennung #Diplomatie
