Description

An introspective dive into an ethereal atmosphere, “Glimpses of an Eternal Bloom” is the debut album of Turkish producer, composer and pianist Berk İçli.

The album is an attempt to frame certain moments of “being” no matter the emotional state concerned, whether euphoric, sentimental or dark and contemplative. At times, this is done through orchestrations of strings, brass and woodwinds. Other times with solo piano, field recordings, electronics and the use of samples.

Born in Istanbul, Berk Icli recorded his album in NYC, which had been his home for the past several years. Studying classical and jazz composition at The New School’s Mannes Conservatory allowed him to practise unconventional ways of obtaining sounds from various instruments, to produce a timbre widely unbeknown to their true nature. The album was recorded, produced and mixed in Berk Icli’s apartment over a year. “I wanted to project the sound of my personal space and in this fashion refrained from pushing for a clean and sterile sound” he explains.
