Welcome to a very original way of drumming

As a drummer and educator rooted in Istanbul’s vibrant music scene, I dedicate my craft to making Afrobeat drumming an enriching experience for all who seek it. Inspired by Tony Allen’s legacy, I have transformed my passion into resources that empower others—method books, transcriptions, and multimedia materials that breathe life into every beat. 

When I met with Tony for his second gig in Istanbul in 2015, I showed him the sketch of my first book of afrobeat and asked him to make this book published together, off course Tony would be the author with my co-authoring. He kindly told me he was too busy with his concert schedule and suggested me to go on my own and this sources of afrobeat came alive at the end.

After more than 15 years of personal study and analyse, I’ve tried to put afrobeat drumming on a academic way, here you can reach my method books, some downloadable pdf transcriptions and audio sources for afrobeat drumming.
