In a short time, she found a place in the programs of the world's most prestigious music festivals and venues. "No matter what genre or style of music I choose, there is always a soul that people can relate to. But you know, it all depends on my mood as well.”
Fuchs
Fuchs namely Ali Sahinbas kickstarted what seems to be a lifelong career in radio and music in 1999. As one of the most in demand DJ's of Istanbul he played in hundreds of clubs both at home and abroad. In 2003 he founded Dinamo (www.dinamo.fm) and became its spiritual leader and musical director in what would be one of his greater accomplishments for the music scene.
