“I Fly, The Skies Fly”

Anatolian Electro-Folk

Soaring through the electro-Anatolian cosmos

With electrified saz, voice and machines, the “Shaman of Modern Times” CEM YILDIZ pushes the boundaries of Anatolian folk music and transports audiences into the universe of Istanbul’s urban sounds. Take flight with his performance of the poetically titled “I Fly, The Skies Fly.”

From the Montreux Jazz Festival to Sonar Barcelona, CEM YILDIZ has performed on stages of the major world and electronic music festivals, constantly reinventing his sound signature.

A graduate of the Istanbul National Conservatory, the artist has developed a unique musical universe blending folk and electronic music. His journey, which began with the album "HÜ"- composed of Alevi songs - has deepened with the groups Orient Expressions and Insanlar. His international hits “Stil”, “Ejma” and “Atlas”, in collaboration with Acid Arab, are also part of this ever-evolving sonic exploration.
