Listened to 'Empty Streets' and 'Cybbn'. They are very good, and you can obviously play guitar pretty well. However, I feel the tracks are missing something - they maybe feel too much like a guitarist's songs. Is it possible to add vocals or different instruments?

Thanks miller64977 and Jair.

Well finrod. I feel it too. There is missing something but i can't get what is it.
Maybe different insturments will work but I'm not good to composing.

I know what's missing. I'm listening to Cvbbn right now, it needs a nice phat funky bassline, a slap one would probably go best, where the bassist and you can trade off with the fills.

Arrow What's missing?

A front man belting out some lyrics, phattt bass and drums, a stadium with 50,000 fans, lightshow, pyrotechnics ...

How's the Istanbul live scene? Do you get to play live in front of an audience much, because that'll develop your stage presence. The guitar work already sounds mighty (imho)!!

From a crass marketing point of view, what's your "unique selling point"? What do you have that other guitarists/bands don't have? It could be that your band is the first Turkish band to get onto the mainstream circuit (say). OK – that can be a pretty superficial reason for people to pay attention, but once they are paying attention, etc, etc ...


btw – do you get to Europe much? (In fact, did Turkey end up joining the EEC? I know there was a whole lot of talk recently.)

Well jada, sorry for late answer.

Istanbul live scene sucks. People really don't interested in and listen this kind music here. I just played 2 times on stage and I was playing instead of my friend. Generally audience is not much insterested in music.

What is "unique selling point"? I don't think anything about selling. I don't have a band too.

I never get to Europe too. Don't know much about EEC but I think Turkey still not joining the EEC.
