Yine Sensiz

Yine Sensiz is Turkish singer Tarkan's first studio album, released by İstanbul Plak on 26 December 1992. It was recorded between 1990 and 1992 at Erekli Tunç Studio in Istanbul. Produced by Mehmet Söğütoğlu, the album's tracks were arranged by Ozan Çolakoğlu. The album, with the release of "Kıl Oldum" about a week earlier, saw a strong rise in sales. Shortly after releasing this album which was produced without the support of any other artists, Tarkan took to stage on TRT 1's 1993 New Year's Eve program which brought him instant national recognition. In 1993, he released singles from the album, including "Kimdi?", "Gelipte Halimi Gördün Mü?", "Vazgeçemem", and "Çok Ararsın Beni", to positive reviews. Many media outlets and music critics were divided about Tarkan's debut album. Some argued that it would not hold a candle to the exiting albums in the music market, while others expressed hope for its place in the rising pop music scene. At Alpay Aydın's insistence, Tarkan began work on the album. He signed with İstanbul Plak, which had not released an album since the late 1980s. He completed the album by writing Turkish lyrics over arrangements of mostly foreign songs.
