Merdan Taplak
Merdan Taplak, Grocer in sounds



Wow, 2010 has been BANGING for MERDAN TAPLAK. His live project was only aired in February 2010, but MERDAN TAPLAK played more than 60 national and international gigs, always keeping the crowd going. MERDAN TAPLAK bridges the gap between electro and worldmusic, mixing uptempo floorfillers with classic worldgroove music. Very original indeed! Belgian quality newspaper DE STANDAARD recommended MERDAN TAPLAK as "the number one MUST SEE Belgian act" in the summer of 2010. The band only existed for 4 months then!



MERDAN TAPLAK live is one deejay, one accordionist and four brass musicians, all originating from Antwerp, Belgium. No golden teeth, no suspenders or hats, no gipsy roots, but one hell of a fiesta balkananica! 100% FIESTA GARANTEED!



MERDAN TAPLAK, born in Antwerp and raised Asianly, is without doubt the next big thing in the Belgian and European deejay scene. Rocking all stages of all major festivals and clubs in Europe, MERDAN TAPLAK is hitting the crowd and he is hitting them hard.



Often referred to as "the Bosphorus’ third bridge", he creates a new world with new sounds through melodies from across the globe, passionately reconciled into electronic worldgroove. Like a Turkish grocer, trafficking in sounds. A fresh shop, always discovering new flavours which take you by surprise. You won’t believe your ears. Not even mentioning your legs.



MERDAN TAPLAK's international acclaim is growing steadily, due to his energetic dj-sets and live shows and because of his electro-world productions. His single, "MARCH OF THE SULTANS" is supported by lots of worldmusic deejays, worldfamous deejay Gilles Peterson (BBC Radio One) called it "a festival banger". The track has been compiled - as the first Belgian deejay - on the infamous "BALKAN BEATS" compilation by Robert Soko. The METISSE EP covers both sides of MERDAN TAPLAK's musical spectrum: a heavily electrified track topped with african vocals, an absolute floorfiller. The track "TWEET" again shows MERDAN TAPLAK's musical diversity: it has been compiled - again as the first Belgian producer - on the internationally known ELECTRO SWING compilaton (Vol 3, Wagram).



MERDAN TAPLAK is highly positioned as a deejay/producer but he keeps on going. Attending every festival, he is acknowledged by international connoisseurs as one of the rising stars in his genre. From New York to Vienna, from Brussels to Berlin, Merdan Taplak mashes it up globally!
