Birsen Tezer with Bassist Mümtaz Solmaz: De?irmenler
Here’s one to chill out to on a Saturday afternoon (or whatever time you’re watching this). This video features Turkish singer Birsen Tezer performing “De?irmenler”.
Bassist Mümtaz Solmaz sets up the groove with some high-register playing, then takes a solo at the 2:34 mark.

didn’t really like. Doesn’t make sense how someone could play a bass that big.
I have the same bass, a Yamaha TRB6. The exptended range is fantastic and you get used to the size pretty quickly. It all comes down to that same old thing….practice, practice, practice.
the guitar solo was tasty!
Yep cool, but I’m always a little wary when a bass fretboard looks like it needs a median barrier
