Orient Expressions is a project from Istanbul, Turkey. The band is a collaboration between Dj Yakuza, Cem Yldz and Richard Hamer. The three combine electronic music with Turkish folk music with jazzy vibes and traditional percussion rhythms.
At this show, Orient Expressions will be performing with Turkish singer and fellow citizen Aylin Aslim. Aylin was born in a village called Lich in Germany and decided later on to move to Turkey. There she started her musical career releasing her techno-pop album 'Gelgit'. After this, she switched to pop/rock music.
The Amsterdam Klezmer Band complete the line-up. These seven Dutch Musicians play a refreshing mix of traditional Balkan and klezmer music. In 1996 Saxophone player Job Chajes started the band and directly impressed the public with their live performances. Later on they successfully collaborated with famous Dutch artists like C-mon & Kypski, Postmen and Normaal.
