O’s Notes: Dede’s music has an exotic Middle Eastern sound fused with a lot of nature’s sounds. He wrote and arranged all of the tunes and he also plays reed flute and percussion. Hugh Marsh makes his presence known on electric violin and Göksel Baktagir puts a strong beat into several tracks playing quanum. The music comes on in waves, the perfect background for a modern art exhibit or an art deco bar.
