R.I.P DJ MEHDI...

We're so sad this young man passed away at sucha early age. He was a great dj and his live performances were spectacular. Last year when Nublu Orchestra played in Paris I was trying to get him to collaborate with us ...didn't happen that time but I was hoping in the future...rest in peace Mehdi.

ISTANBUL SESSIONS IN PARIS...



We played at this great space in Paris called Gaite Lyrique. Great space , great sound and well organized. It was for something called Kolaj Istanbul. The band 123 from Istanbul opened the show then we played...people were very into it , which makes everything easier. Lots of people from the great Radio station Radio Nova came , Sabina Sciubbs , in the pic, came very pregnant . Was a real cool evening...
