The Sound Of Istanbul

Alexander Hacke, the bassist of Einstürzende Neubauten, sets out to capture the musical diversity of Istanbul in Fatih Akin’s new documentary, “Crossing The Bridge”. His previous drama, “Head-On”, is one of my absolute favourites and I can’t wait to lay my hand on this new DVD, featuring a voyage through modern electronic, rock and hip-hop to classical “Arabesque”. Apart from the trailers, Intro magazine have also put up some clips from it.
