Sometimes it feels like Finders Keepers and B-Music could keep reissuing records into eternity and never run out of gems to dazzle us with. For this installment in their Anatolian Invasion series, they've brought us the "space age, electronic, progressive-protest, psych-folk-funk-rock" of Ersen. If you liked the Mustafa Ozkent and Selda collections, this is for you. Ersen just blew the minds of about half the office (the other half had headphones on), so I won't even attempt to describe the excellent sounds within, but will instead point you towards these fine selections - "Temek(1)," "Bir Aynlik Bir Yoksulluk Bir Olum(2)," "Metelik(3)," "Guzele Bak Guzele(4)," "Zalim(5)," "Gunese Don Cicegim(6)." Right? Hearing is believing. Extensive liners, rare pics and background info included in the booklet. 16 tracks; 59 minutes. Recommended.
