- Let's start. Welcome to Turkey. - Thank you so much.
- How are you? - Very good, very good. I've been very excited to come to Turkey.
- You know it's my first time. - First time? - Yes. - Very nice.
- We are very lucky. - Thank you.
- And tonight, your concert. - Yes.
How did your music life start?
My parents used to listen to a lot of music when I was little.
So I grew up in in a home full of music in a way.
And my mom, she always loved to sing and my father would always write little stories and poems so somehow it became like a part of my world.
And then later when I became a little bit older like around 12 or something I started playing in a garage band in the little village where I come from.
That kind of evolved and I started playing in more bands.
And then when I was around 13 or 14 I started my first proper band and I think that's when I really got deeper into music.
And when I started to find out that music was my call in life.
Very nice.
My channel on YouTube is mostly about music education. And I wonder about your education process.
Mostly I learned just from my roots because my roots are kind of in traditional folk music of the Faroe Islands.
So it started off as just a natural thing.
I would study every day and study my voice just by myself by singing somewhere out in nature or at home or in a garage band or something.
But later on I felt the need to learn more about my voice.
So when I was 17 I moved to Iceland to Reykjavik to study classical singing.
And I had a great reacher called Olaf Collbran who taught me some good stuff.
- So you learned classical vocal techniques. - Yes.
How it's like in Faroe Islands?
I mean the Faroe Islands is located between Iceland and Scotland so it's very small.
The population is around 50,000 people.
So when I was starting off there were not so many possibilities for singers to get educated, to get singing lessons and stuff like that.
So you kind of had to go somewhere else to do that but I was I was lucky that this vocal teacher came to the Faroe Islands and had some courses.
And that's where I met her the first time.
The nature is very big part of the Faroes culture because it's all we have there.
There was a singer friend of mine called Homayoun in Iran.
He told me that he improved his singing technique by singing on the mountain.
I met a singer in Korea, she told me that she sang to water to improve her singing technique.
How did you practice?
I think I have got my biggest inspiration from nature as well.
That's where I started singing in a way.
It's been on my long walks when I was little like somewhere alone up on a mountain.
That's when you kind of feel free or something and you can express yourself in a way that you know you don't have to really think about what you're doing. You're just there.
I think that's what really made me want to sing when I was little.
And I remember later on I would sometimes sail with my friend into these big mountain caves in the Faroe Islands.
Or you kind of sail for an hour or something and then you come into this caves you can go in and then you can sing inside the cave.
It's like a really big sound, like reverb.
And it's completely dark dark and I loved to do that when I lived in the Faroe Islands.
I still do it sometimes when I come home.
It's quite an experience and I remember sometimes that the sea because we're in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean sometimes it's a bit stormy.
You know sometimes the sea would be like bit crazy and then you're in this cave and it's dramatic.
So I think that kind of triggered some some special vocal techniques for me as well.
Those who listen to your music in Turkey and from all around the world find your music poetic and dramatic.
How can you explain the reason of this view? Is it something special of Northern Europe countries?
I think it's something to do with where I come from and how I have experienced that place.
Because it kind of becomes a part of your identity or your way of expressing yourself.
And the place I'm from is like full of contrasts you know like sometimes it's soft and mild and gentle. You know the nature.
And then a moment later it's like stormy and rainy.
So it's full of light and dark and I think that my voice and my music is very connected to that somehow.
How do you describe the music you make?
Because everyone finds it different from the other works.
I think I have always found it very hard to kind of put put my music into one one box.
And I have been like on a journey because when I made my first album I was 16 and it was very inspired by my roots in folk music.
But then, later on as I explored more and got deeper into what I was doing I think I've lately mixed it up with some electronic elements.
So I usually call it "folk-tronica".
- Folk-tronica? Very nice. - Yeah.
And it has you know some elements of pop like dark pop and traditional folk music mixed together.
We don't know very much about Northern Europe's folk elements. Can she tell us about them?
I think that Scandinavian music has a lot in common it has a certain tone like a certain vibe that is quite dark and melancholic.
I think that's what all the Scandinavian music has in common.
Although you can hear the difference between traditional Norwegian music and Faroese and Icelandic music.
But they all have the same kind of tone in them.
Quite in a sad tone in a way.
What can she tell us about Eurovision? Because she has had a Eurovision experience.
I'm not sure.
I think that it's what it is.
It's like something that is entertaining but it's a little bit like fast food.
It's something you get quick and you get it like right into your face.
It's something you remember for a few seconds and then it's gone and you're off to the next thing.
But I think also it can be entertaining.
I mean I watch it sometimes with my daughter and we're like "Yes, yeah!" you know. It's like a football game.
For me it's not artistically or musically satisfying to watch competitions.
I think it's like sports.
It's not something you do to get in touch with your deeper emotions.
It's something you do for entertainment.
So you got classical music education but you use different kinds of vocal techniques such as brutal vocal. How did you improve them?
I remember when I was around 15 years old I started in a jazz band actually in the Faroe Islands.
And I learned a lot from being around jazz musicians because it taught me a lot about improvisation and about all the different layers of the voice.
Listening to saxophone players or trumpet players it's almost like a voice but they can do it very harsh and sometimes very soft. voice but they they can like do it very
So I just got really inspired by that and I started to rehearse in a different way.
I was not rehearsing in the normal way.
I was more like looking for different sounds in my voice and trying to make it sound harsh or soft.
So I was just exploring different things and I think from that I kind of started to experiment a lot with my voice.
What's your vocal range?
I think it goes for four octaves.
- Four octaves? - Yeah. Something like that.
Which keys?
I think my highest note is "E". I don't sing it very often because it's a bit high.
But yrah. I think playing jazz music when I was a teenager made me think of the voice more as an instrument. that like playing jazz music when I was
And I didn't think of my voice so much anymore as just a singer.
It was more like an instrument that you can actually play, you know.
It kind of frees your mind to see it that way.
Because you kind of break all the frames you put around.
Like "Okay, I'm a singer and this is how I sing." You kind of just you can feel free and I think that's a great discovery for a singer.
Which instruments do you play?
play I fake it hard that's kind of my I guess my main instrument I got a guitar
from my mom when I was around ten and she taught me you know a few chords I
think three chords and for many years I just played three chords you know yeah
but you can play a lot of songs with with only three three chords almost all
songs and so it kind of worked for a while until I got bored and needed to
add some chords to the rep return and then I play a drum like a little hand
drum which I bought in Norway many years ago and what else I play some I play the
piano a little bit and I like yeah I like instruments I can sometimes I just
buy them and try to see if I can play them jockey things not enough I don't
know so much about the like Turkish music but I am very curious now that
I've been here so I'm definitely gonna buy some music when I go home and
Commissioner Lucinda - koukin I have a feeling that Turkish music is very
expressive like and a lot of curling in the in the singing I think that that's
my impression but I'm not sure I think I've heard you have some acapella yeah
the traditional music area right yeah Nastasia the treasurer's hardy be
balanced warm a rock you do know it's difficult to say but yeah you might you
might find it if you go so far far back today but yeah it's interesting how you
come to different places in the world and and find connections you know
through through culture and especially I think singing is it's such a personal
thing like and and such a thing that is so deep within people in different
cultures the way you sing it's like the voice of the voice of the place or
something and algebra she may not get doing any using logic inside me that you
want me optimization yeah yeah no my music is it's not connected to to
religion or or any like that I'm inspired by the things
that happen around me in the world and also you know by nature you know like
it's just just a feeling that you can't express them and just like the because
when you're alone in nature you like you you see sometimes you see like just just
a very simple thing of just being here right now in the world and I think that
is the most inspiring feeling to write from when I write music to just just be
and the same when you when you sing - not like that be anywhere else rather
than just right right there where it's going on it's so easy to kind of oh how
house you know what what's that guy thinking now you know all these things
that you get carried away but I think when I sing it really helps me to just
be present somehow okay the last king the game of Thrones but is that the
exact one the last Kingdom after hasta Sevilla she never music Benny Upton's we
do magic naturally in essence yeah I got into that kind of
accidentally I I wasn't I hadn't planned to kind of start to making music for
four games and movies and stuff like that but it kind of yeah the Game of
Thrones thing it was this song that I had written on one of my albums it's
called so close to being free and it was used in in one of the trailers for Game
of Thrones because they thought it kind of it fitted like the thing and and that
was really cool because at the time I was I love Game of Thrones as well so I
was like I was watching it and I was like whoo and then later last Kingdom
yeah that was the composer John lund from a family
kay contacted me because he had seen a video of my song shuttle abundance which
I sing with the drum and and he was looking for some some sounds you know
for the series that he was doing and and then he phoned me up and and we I flew
to London and we tried some things some ideas and we really liked working
together so so we just started to like write a lot of stuff for the sea reason
then Kingdom
oh yeah yeah that was actually the the title song for last Kingdom it was it
was the first very first thing we did when I came to London and and he said he
just had the music he said I have this music here I'm thinking you can try
something and I just went into the vocal booth and it was just an improvisation
it was like okay I'll try something just try you know whatever and and then it
was that very first first thing I did that that he ended up using often like I
guess that the first thing that comes to your mind is often the the best idea I
think I tried many things after that like all I also had this idea but but
the first one was the most authentic positivity and earnest Dookie encourage
an image and do concern is the mama polkadot socks even kisses engine is not
the Jeremy material yes
no my mom's gonna I was gonna be angry I'm swearing on yeah they want to learn
the language stations my big best advice is to go to the Faroe Islands in the
summer yeah and yeah start slowly learn a few words sunny day in Japan my name
is Jana Cleo faith Bishop says maybe they gave you yeah I think that it's
again what we talked about before you know that to capture just that the
feeling of just being being there like very present I think that's the most
important thing if you especially if you want to to connect with with the
audience I think that the clothes you wear or whatever makeup you have on it
won't connect you to your audience the the important thing is to to kind of be
present be there in the room and and you know try and not not be anywhere else
and I think that's the same thing the same feeling that I try to capture like
when you're all alone on a mountaintop you're there and and when you're on
stage you just try to be like as free as you can and not kind of be to ego like
to kind of let go of your ego for a while and yeah and just be free and no I
have I've always had a quite bad hearing like it started like a few years ago I
think it's a mix of too much rock and roll
but also it's also something to do with like my family a house has a like a low
hearing so but it's become much worse the past five years I can feel it now
like we're talking I'm like well but I just I just think about it when I talk
to people when I'm performing I don't really I don't think about my hearing
but it's mainly the the deep notes that I don't hear so well
shark is language mm-hmm there are many many many singers that
inspire me like and musicians it's been like on my on my way like it's been
quite a handful I remember that Joni Mitchell had a really really big effect
on me when I was a teenager York of course and and male singers like Robert
Plant you know expressive singers who kind of
really have strong expressions and then there's a Peru and singer called you
mazuma yeah do you know about her yeah she is like she's my hero yeah yeah
I love I really really love her like I remember when I heard her the first time
I was like wow you can do that I'm gonna try that you know I was very inspired by
her and and then there's a Sami singer called
Murray Boyer who also really inspired me so yeah I could keep going but there are
many many many great artists sister Lisa cynical emotional rapo happy Abdullah
yeah that's a that's a good question because I've tried a little bit of both
like I've tried losing my voice when I was just before I went to Iceland
when I was 16 or something I lost my voice because I have been singing like
without any technique and and I was you know as I told you I had started to
experiment a lot and do many crazy screams and sounds so my voice started
to like just get really a heart like what you call it
I couldn't get any sound yeah so um so that's why I went to Iceland to to kind
of get some some insight in the technique and after that I learned to
kind of protect my voice in a way mainly actually to just listen to your body and
and feel when when you kind of cross your limits you know kind of - yeah -
know your limits but I guess you have to you have to push it to the limit - no a
limit so so it's like it's something you have to kind of learn I guess but what I
try to do if my voice is tired I just try to get plenty of sleep I think
that's the that's the best best cure for a tired voice you can you know drink all
this tea and honey and all that stuff is much better I think so yeah just be just
be gentle to it you know the band again Clara I was a little blue medium
transmission repl Arzo a folk music pinch open academic manager can do folk
music art museum is only part of all the lily nine Acula okay I can okay let me
think
I'll do one it's beyond the brim assaulting onigiri ODB's yeah now here

mmm good good Samir Cuffy yeah Wow it's good yeah yummy thank you very much
thank you so much I'm gonna go to my room and eat it all thank you can I say
one more thing about because you asked me about I shouldn't have this maybe
yeah because you asked me about the singing thing like you thought that
fairies traditional singing was similar to to Turkish traditional singing and
you talked about like them how singing kind of is often like a part of every
culture it's something that I think that the the beautiful thing about singing is
that it kind of brings people together and like Faroese in folk music we don't
have any traditional instruments in the Faroe Islands so it's all it's all about
singing I'm like all our history and was written down very late and it's all just
been carried on from mouth to mouth like through the years through singing like
through a chain dances and you know people singing together so I think that
you know it's probably similar other places in the world where like you tell
the stories through through a song through a folk song so I think that's a
that might be like the reason why you can find similarities in singing like in
different places oh yeah it's actually a folk song that it's just the first one
that came to my head but it's like it's called shelter and it's a it's like
these short folk songs that that you often sing to kids and I remember this
is one the first one I remember from from when
I was little and my grandmother used to sing this this song for me like when she
put me to sleep she'd be like well it not necessarily it's not about sleeping
but but it's the kind of song that you will you'll sing to your you teach you
teach the children because they are often quite short and to have a lot of
rhymes and and the lyrics are often very crazy like yeah what this this one is
about a crow crow it's about a crow yeah oh the birds yeah yeah well it's bit
it's like it's it's more like a rhyme it's about the crow that is sitting on a
rock somewhere and it's and then it's like just these crazy rhymes I can't I
can't even translate it but it's like it's just like a description of like a
moment that's going on a crow is sitting there and and then it's telling what
it's doing the crow is doing this and that the crow is singing is all in the
in the on the YouTube yeah I love it it's really really really cool and I was
like when I saw it I was like yes I definitely want to do it do this so it's
really yeah really really cool I'm gonna watch more you have plenty of of things
right online I haven't seen all of it but I was really really nice
thank you
