Beyoglurush

Beyoglurush: Freedjom (Terra Tempo 01)

Milan-based Beat Machine Records is proud to introduce Beyoglurush, the debut full-length album from Istanbul-born, Berlin-based producer Freedjom (Özgür Haznedar). This release marks the inaugural chapter of Terra Tempo—a groundbreaking catalog series redefining the boundaries of global sound by blending rich cultural heritage with the dynamic energy of modern club beats.

The Concept: Istanbul Streets Meet Juke & Footwork Beyoglurush is a captivating fusion of footwork, juke, and breakbeat rhythms infused with the organic sounds of traditional Turkish instruments like the darbuka, bendir, and def. Drawing inspiration from the vibrant street music culture of Beyoğlu, Freedjom captures the raw, magnetic energy of Istanbul. The album channels the city's emotion, creating an immersive sonic experience where centuries of history collide with fast-paced, syncopated electronic grooves.

A Poetic Journey: Sisler Bulvarı Adding profound emotional depth to the high-speed rhythms, Freedjom draws inspiration from Turkish poet Attilâ İlhan’s famous work Sisler Bulvarı (Boulevard of Mists). The poem’s melancholic and vivid imagery is woven directly into the album, evoking the sensation of wandering through a foggy Istanbul night caught between the past and the present.

Formats & Exclusives The album bridges past and present across digital and physical formats. Please note: The exclusive "DJ Strawberry Remix" is only available via the complete digital/vinyl release or directly through the Nina Protocol store.
