Beside the Sun

Beside the Sun or Sun Dog or Parhelia or Mock Sun is an amazing atmospheric phenomenon. It's a luminous halo on either side of the sun.

For Murat this phenomenon can be easily translated to interactions and forms of appearence in diverse cultures. The humanity is the source of all as the sun here is. We are the common denominators even if we would not admit. As an artist, he tries to find out musical aspects world cultures have in common.

The album Beside the Sun is an invitation to reconsider personal ideas about other cultures in the hope that everyone may find similarities in his or hers with other cultures. A network of international friends contributed to this album, talented vocalists/musicians from the USA (Ramona Graham, Elaine Schoendorf, KCentric, Panu Moon, spinningmerkaba), UK (Azoora, MTG aka CaramelG), Netherlands (Abhi S.V.) Canada (Barbarella, Lisa Patric, Brad), Japan (Riyu Konaka), Latin America (C Dala/Nego Elias from Brazil).
