What isn't metal, I make metal. What is, I make symphonic or acoustic. Plus originals in between.

One direction goes metal to symphonic. I pull extreme and
progressive metal acts like Death, Opeth, Necrophagist, Emperor, Dissection, Candlemass, Solitude Aeturnus, and Turkish singer-songwriter material in the Grup Yorum tradition, into symphonic, acoustic, cinematic, or dark instrumental arrangements.

The other direction runs backwards. I metalize Arabic repertoire (Fares Karam, Marwan Adham), hijaz maqam pieces, and Turkish folk material into Arabic Orchestral Folk Metal, Dabke Metal, or Epic Symphonic Oriental Metal. Originals like "Symphony of Sahara" (lyrics mine, Suno-composed) live here too.

Arrangement and orchestration are mine. Audio comes from Suno; videos are tagged "altered content" per YouTube policy. It's also my official Spotify artist page.

New covers and originals drop regularly. Subscribe if you want familiar pieces from unfamiliar places, or something new.

Sorry for the delay in uploading my new cover projects and videos.

Yesterday I was at the Iron Maiden concert in Sofia, and the night coincided with my birthday. It turned into one of the best gifts I could give myself — and one of the most unforgettable experiences I’ve ever had.

After I get back and rest a bit, I’ll share a few short clips from the concert and continue uploading new covers.

Up the Irons 🤘🏻

Cover projelerim ve videoları yükleme konusunda yaşanan gecikme için özür dilerim.

Dün, Iron Maiden konseri için Sofya'daydım. Konser gecesi doğum günüme denk geldi. Bu da kendime verebileceğim en iyi hediye oldu. Aynı zamanda unutamayacağım deneyimlerdendi.

Geri dönüp biraz dinlendikten sonra konser görüntüleri ve yeni cover projelerimi yayınlamaya devam edeceğim.

Up the Irons 🤘🏻

Live in 45 minutes.

Nevermore - 'The Heart Collector'. This time it's instrumental: a solo violin carries the vocal line, with strings and piano around it. An orchestral reading of the lament.

In memory of Warrel.

21:45'te yayında.

Nevermore - "The Heart Collector". Bu sefer enstrümantal: vokal hattını solo keman taşıyor, çevresinde yaylılar ve piyano. Bir orkestral ağıt okuması.

Warrel'ın anısına.

It’s been a busy and tiresome week for me. I’m planning to release two metal covers next week.

I am currently working on a reinterpretation of "Inno a Satana" from Emperor. There will be two versions: the first will be symphonic metal, the second will be epic symphonic orchestral with short choral vocals. I will keep both short. The adaptation of symphonic black metal to classical music will astonish you.
