Recording since 1995 with friends, in rooms the name JHD is actually James Hakan Dedeoglu. Which is me. Also the editor in chief of the Turkish music, cinema and art magazine Bant (www.bantdergi.com) I try to record my songs whenever I or my friends have time. But there isnT much time which means there isn't a lot of songs.
Anyway, things have started now. I have just finished the new OAK album... home recorded, home coocked, home baked, home made... the album is titled "NEW BORN" and the songs on myspace are from this album. And Radio Eksen played "This Rabbit Is Dead" a couple of days ago.
