Sonic4 - The Downfall Of Turkey 2.0
digital download (TURKEY02)
"The Downfall Of Turkey 2.0" is a two-track EP by Sonic4,
and it was made in May 1st, Workers Day. It samples a live news
recording of the scene where the police attacked the fractions
of workers and socialist groups to prevent them from marching on
Taksim. The song sampled throughout the album is an anthem for
Workers Day.
"Once again, we see another example of how shit this
country is. Today is May 1st, Workers Day and instead of a great
celebration we saw a heart-breaking moment of thousands of
police blocking our roads, preventing them from celebrating it
by gassing and shooting them. Taksim is a famous location and
it's banned to march there for years, people have only marched
there 5 times in history. How great of a president we have.
'Celebrating' this holiday while fractions of workers and
protestors getting killed by your own police. You think you can
get away by cheating the constitution with your pockets but some
people say otherwise."
