Another song from the 2006 "Black Hole Years" album...

From the 2006 "Black Hole Years" blues album...

This was my second commercial album, released in 2006 in digital format.

If you are a regular follower, you know that I'm sort of an electronic instrument buff, but I also happen to be a pre-WWII blues aficionado.

My heroes being Blind Willie Johnson, Charley Patton, Robert Johnson, Son House, Mississipi Fred McDowell, Blind Willie McTell, to name a few...

The first album was very electronica and cold wave, so I went for the opposite approach regarding the follow-up.

"Black Hole Years" is a very lo-fi, dark, gritty, blues album, in the vein of Tom Waits's later works (with a mellower voice).

There are synths in there all right, but mostly big analog-style bass, some pads and some Mellotron.

The rest is slide guitar, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, well, guitars... and clapping hands...

It was released on british netlabel http://www.acousmatic.co.uk/ and is still available on most digital distribution sites.

Another turkish-enriched one... again from the "Black Hole Years" album...

Since these days I'm working on a new lo-fi folk-blues EP, let's dig up this fine fine blues song from the "Black Hole Years" album.

The video was made using footage from various turkish favorites.

The song itself can be purchased through most digital shops, such as iTunes or Amazon.com
