Review by Dawoud Kringle
Artist: Mehmet Polat
Title: The Promise
Label: Aftab Records
Genre: Turkish/Oriental music
In the past, I reviewed Turkish oud master Mehmet Polat’s, who lives in Amsterdam (Holland), releases Ask Your Heart, Next Spring and Quantum Leap. I had come to expect Polat to come up with something different and amazing each time he released new music. This is no easy feat for the oud; an instrument that expresses itself in a very specific way. I was curious to hear what new music Polat would come up with.
He does not disappoint.
