Tren

Omer Goksel says :

"This project is the first of its kind and I can gladly call it "our" album thanks to the dedication of all the musicians involved.
They put not only their competence, but also their hearts into this music.

I am grateful to all the musicians, technical and supporting team who worked in a highly professional manner, but also with a truly amateur spirit, in order to squeeze the best out of what we had in our hands.

I also wish to thank my family, my friends and a close circle who, even though they might not be directly involved in the production, provided the crucial support in our worst moments when we got close to giving up."
