about

- Wax Poetic is breaking new ground URB

- Futuristic takes on disparate sounds from near and far –
Time Out New York

Wax Poetic’s Istanbul is the second part in a three-part
series of records from the Nublu founder and bandleader
Ilhan Ersahin’s Wax Poetic project. Where Wax Poetic’s
first major release saw Ersahin collaborating with Brazilian
Girls, Norah Jones, N’dea Davenport and Saul
Williams, Wax Poetic’s Istanbul brings Ilhan to his father’s
homeland to paint his own picture of modern day Turkey —
a street-art portrait that is vibrant and current, one that
tosses the ‘world music’ misnomer on its head. Istanbul is
the second album in a series that takes Ersahin to different
countries where he collaborates with their musicians. The
first record in the series was Copenhagen, and the next will
be Brasil.
