European Tribune

Yes, it's important to note that Spain, Portugal, and Greece were fascist dictatorships up to and into the '70s. And under which political system the new East European members were living till the end of the '80s.

Btw, I heard a comment on French radio by someone who'd been to Istanbul recently, and according to him there's a real kewl scene there. I didn't register the names of a hip part of town he mentioned, but he also talked about big night clubs by the sea, etc.

I knew there could be something similar to the Movida going on but I could not detect it. It passed under the radar.

Good to hear from you that the contrary is the case. Pity I did not have a guide. You always need a guide for these things. And by guide , I mean a local young that teaches you the proper places. Unfortunately I do not know anybody in Istanbul and I was alone so.....

Hopefully in a few years we will listen a little of turkish electro-techno with different mixtures as the turkish people already produce and dance in Germany...

A pleasure

The guy on the radio compared it with the Movida, I'd forgotten to say...
