The friendship with Bulent Tezcan opened further doors for his musical career.</div> <div> In 1994, his album "Suc Bende" sold 1,5 million Tapes and 200,000 CDs and became the biggest selling album of the year. With this success Mustafa played 140 concerts in Turkey and 30 in Europe. Also known as songwriter producer, Mustafa worked that same year with singer Sibel Alas on the album "Adam" that sold 400,000 copies.</div> <div> In 1997, 27 years old at that time, Sandal decided to move to London, but his second album “Golgede Ayni", sold that summer over 2.5 million Tapes and 600,000 CDs. Sandal gave over 200 concerts and has astonished the population with his video of the single "Bir Anda" in which he has used tie-clip techniques. For Mustafa, it became clear that he couldn’t leave to London as he was also having irresistible offers such as producing the Turkish young rising artist Izel.</div> <div> In 1998, he recorded and released the album "Detay" of which "Aya Benzer" was the first single. The song was quickly n°1 in the Turkish charts and the album won two Kral Awards (which is in Turkey the equivalent of the Grammy awards). In that same year, he toured in the USA, in Germany, Austria, Denmark, Holland, England, Sweden, Turkmenistan and Aserbeidschan.</div> <div> In 1999, Sandal signed a contract with Sony in France, which made him worldwide operational. "Araba", one of his largest hits, came out with remix-versions for the European market.</div> <div> In June 2000 Mustafa Sandal published his album "Akisina Birak", a joint venture work with the composer and musician Iskender Paydas. "Tek Gecerim" and "Hatirla Beni" were two great hits form this album. Besides Sandal established its own label Yada Productions, in order to be able to produce other artists more independently.</div> <div> In June 2002 Mustafa Sandal finally brought his latest album "Kop” out with the hits "Pazara Kadar" and ”Kop”. This album led him this time to Russia and Bosnia-Herzegovina. That same year, Mustafa won a Kral Award for "Best Pop star".</div> <div> In 2003, with the remix of his Top hit "Aya Benzer" Mustafa Sandal (featuring Gulcan) was back to Europe. He reached the top 10 in Germany, entered the Austrian Charts and did very well on Star Radio’s top 40. In 2004, he released a very nice song called "Araba 2004".</div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="index.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Mustafa Sandal Fan Central"><U><B>Our Main Page</b></U></A><B>   </b><A HREF="http://www.starsontop.com/sandal/sandalturk" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.starsontop.com/sandal/sandalt"><U><B>In Turkish</b></U></A></div> <div> Mustafa Sandal website is created and designed by Zebra International, 2005</div> <div> This is a website with educational purpose and is in no way affiliated with Mustafa Sandal, his record companies, or his managements.
