Turkish-born and Montreal-based Mercan Dede and his ensemble of Turkish and Canadian musicians subtly fuse the Eastern spiritual traditions of Sufi music with contemporary ambient sounds to create a unique mix of old and new, sacred and secular, East and West. The music may be modern, but it clearly grows out of the otherworldly heart of the sema ritual of the Whirling Dervishes. Turkish instruments like ney (reed flute) and kanun (zither) and Middle Eastern percussion are spiked with electronics while a whirling dervish dances onstage.
The Mercan Dede Ensemble was founded in 1998, as the culmination of Mercan Dede's extensive musical experience over the past decade both in Turkey and in North America. The primary aim of the Ensemble is to foster an environment in which music can be created and enjoyed freed from restrictive categories and concerns related to the division of music according to various disciplines. A combined wealth of practical training as well as years of experience in performing traditional eastern music enables the members of the Ensemble to realize this aim to a degree not often encountered. Mercan Dede's additional experience with modern western music, and in particular electronic music, helps to create a new and powerful musical expression in combination with the eastern-inspired music and improvisations provided by the other members of the ensemble. Together, these styles of music work to highlight their similarities, both in style and intent.
Mercan Dede is interested not only in the place where he happens to be at any particular moment; he pays careful attention also to the processes by which he arrived there. The Ensemble is concerned as well with these changing considerations, and seeks to express them in the various layers of their compositions.
The inspirational force behind the work of Mercan Dede and the Ensemble is that which has carried the message of Rumi through centuries and around the world; "dervish" means threshold, and the ultimate aim for any Sufi is to meet and be met at the point where one space becomes another.
The Ensemble, originally founded by Mercan Dede, Mohammad and Farokh Shams, and joined later by Toronto-based world-musician Ben Grossman, will now be graced by the accompaniment of Isaiah Sala, a young Sufi whirler. This new element will add another, visual, dimension to the Ensemble, as well as opening up new realms of potential for the spiritual practice of whirling.

In the 13th century, the Islamic Sufi poet and mystic Mevlana Jelaleddin Rumi became famous for whirling in the streets with religious joy - a practice that led to the founding of the Whirling Dervishes by his followers. Eight hundred years on from Rumi's birth comes this celebration album from the best-known Turkish exponent of electronica and "spiritual clubbing". Now based in Montreal, Dede has assembled a global cast for his project, with leading Turkish musicians playing anything from trumpet and trombones to the zither-like kanun and the kemence (fiddle), matched against a Swiss bass player and the Indian tabla exponent Shankar Das. Dede wrote the music, which is partly influenced by songs from Istanbul and the Sufi tradition, and adds the ney flute, percussion and, of course, the electronic sounds. The result is a confident and sophisticated set, in which Dede's beats are never allowed to dominate the impressive instrumental work by his musicians, and even the appearances by Turkey's best-known rapper, Ceza, never disturb the swirling mood music. It's all very classy
Celebrating the 800th birthday of Meylana Jalaleddin-I Rumi, Mercan Dede releases his new album, 800, with themes of Religious Tolerance and Peace. The essence of Sufism, Rumi taught, is counterpoint, everything exists with its opposite. Such a notion is superbly reflected in Dede's latest album that sees Persian, Indian, Turkish and Western music come together to form an impressive sound. The contrast between electronica and classical or folkloric arts cuts to the core of the Sufi philosophy that guides this one-of-a-kind artist. 800 proves to be a captivating and natural step in Dede's long an innovative career.
Mercan Dede is selected as "Best Album of the Year" and "Best World Music Artist" with his album 800 by the votes of Radio Bogazici's listeners and Bogazici University students. He will be receiving his awards with a ceremony on 14th of May.
The award ceremony of "5th Radio Bogazici Music Awards" will take place at Bogazici University BUMED upper garden with its fascinating atmosphere.
