Music Style
Erkin's music is not merely in the traditional styles, but free and surpasses its ethnic roots. Using Flamenco, he has created a new music to the traditional one, making his work more modern and international. Some different from the concept most people have of traditional Uyghur music, his music has a distinct, international flare.Therefore, his music is a "mixture" of Uyghur, Turkish, Russian, Spanish and Chinese, as well as rock, jazz and hip-hop styles, which may be caused by his birthplace which is the centre of Eurasia, or the silk road.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or style:
“Orpheus with his lute made trees
And the mountain tops that freeze
Bow themselves when he did sing.
To his music plants and flowers
Ever sprung, as sun and showers
There had made a lasting spring.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“We are often struck by the force and precision of style to which hard-working men, unpracticed in writing, easily attain when required to make the effort. As if plainness and vigor and sincerity, the ornaments of style, were better learned on the farm and in the workshop than in the schools. The sentences written by such rude hands are nervous and tough, like hardened thongs, the sinews of the deer, or the roots of the pine.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
