about

There is no compensation for the heartache we feel for what has happened in Turkey and Syria. The earthquake in our country Turkey left an unimaginable number of people and animals homeless at freezing winter temperatures. The damage is immense, especially with the slow response of the state, lacking sufficient emergency preparation and care. There’s a wide range of needs that will require donations for months, or even years.

In response, we have put together a compilation to raise funds for the victims. El Ele, meaning “hand in hand” in Turkish unites friends from all over the globe to raise awareness through music. The 21-track compilation expresses solidarity with a wide musical palette spanning from jazz, rock, new-wave, ambient, experimental, dub.

100% of the sales will be donated to local NGOs along with friends’ grass-roots initiatives active in the region both in Turkey and Syria. Your generosity will help to provide shelter, food, education and more for those in need. In this lengthy recovery process, every donation has a significant impact on victims' lives.

The first donations are planned for Bir Kira Bir Yuva, Molham Team (Syria) as well our friends, KAF, who are directly working in the field in Kahramanmaraş, providing food, shelter and education. As the needs of the region evolve, we will add new organisations to donate and will keep you informed.

Special thanks to Robin Lee for mastering, Mestiza Estudio (Monica & Amalia) for the artwork, K7! and Atles for the support and all artists for their contribution.
