“Here are the three versions of Turkey’s 1989 Eurovision entry: Grup Pan – Bana Bana. The first version is a studio mix, the second one is a live version and the third one is a remix. Although the song received 5 points, placing 21st in a field of 22 in that year’s contest, I personally think that Bana Bana is the best amongst Turkey’s Eurovision entries with its complex harmonic and percussive content.

Remember the time when you were a kid and your attention span was 4 seconds. You’d chase one stimulus after the other with utter amazement. Now, you can go back to that instance and remember what kind of music was accompanying your adventures! The lovable Ben Jacobs aka Max Tundra has got his third one six years after his amazing sophomore “Mastered By Guy At The Exchange“.

While I listen to a lot of mood setting ambient & experimental stuff, I’m primarily a song guy. Whenever even a tiny bit of chorus or riff occupies my mind, I can’t stop repeat-listening the song. However it takes around 4-5 listens to memorize every aspect of the song, so the passion dies probably within a week but there’s always a new challenger that runs in my head.
