DJ Tarkan

Since his early childhood in Frankfurt, LPs and singles have been his favorite toys. In 1985, his family decided to move to Istanbul, where Tarkan continued playing his vinyls and recording tapes.

His professional music career started after he finished university and became a resident at Power FM. After showing up in the music scene as a radio DJ, he started to perform at the biggest clubs in Istanbul. His reputation in Turkey was spreading.

DJ Tarkan plays eclectic house sets, and his unique mixing style cemented his fan-base in Turkey, where he is still frequently invited to play gigs in different cities. His creativity and talent was appreciated by the crowds and he was named ‘Number One DJ in Turkey’ for 3 years.

Stimulated by this success, DJ Tarkan decided to spend more time on productions and releasing tracks, based on years of musical experience. His productions and remixes were included in the tracklists and charts of world's well known DJ's like Tiesto, Armin van Buuren, Sasha, Paul van Dyk, Roger Sanchez, Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Deep Dish, Sander Kleinenberg, Paul Oakenfold, Markus Schulz...
