BINFEN is the second part of Murat Ses' trilogy which began with Automaton.
This album features Tan SES, a talented computer musician and MIDI composer with his debut track 'Mare Imbrium'.His track gives clues to the third part of the trilogy. More ambiente, more techno as expected, the 'new' electronic music with Eurasian fugal elements!

Murat SES, a US Keyboard magazine's Discoveries alumnus with excellent critics, enjoys airplay in the USA, Canada, Europe, and last but not least in Asia. His traditional arrangements and compositions from Eurasia on his international debut LP 'Les Danses et Rythmes de la Turquie d'hier a aujourd'hui' was awarded Grand Prix du Disque by the Academie Charles Cros in Paris. One of his works found its way into the BBC program of the legendary DJ, Mr John Peel (1994).

Binfen is dedicated to the forgotten heroes of the aviation history. Binfen (also known as Hezarfen or Hazarfen Ahmet Celebi) was a courageous scientist who flew with a self-constructed glider over Bosphorus in the 17th century. Gevheri, Firnas, and Lagari are other important personalities from the mostly ignored part of the aviation history (the so-called phantastic part). The tracks tell the story of Binfen (who was exiled to Spain then, after being classified as dangerous because of his deep knowledge and extraordinary talents), of his dreams, feelings, and hopes.

In Binfen, Murat displays his impressions of the timeless and boundless context of civilization, as he did in Automaton.
