I joined Stüdyo 101 in 2008 as assistant to recording engineer Alp Turaç. I later worked as a sound engineer and audio designer at Babajim Istanbul Studios, with artists including mor ve ötesi, Yüksek Sadakat, Tan Taşçı, Mustafa Ceceli and Petek Dinçöz.
In Babajim’s main recording room, I recorded and mixed artists and bands, choosing the setup for each session and specialising in rock. I recorded an album with Yüksek Sadakat, and two English-language songs and music for Doritos adverts with mor ve ötesi. My broadcast work included recording and mixing live streams for channels such as Mezzo TV.
