Description
"The veteran Turkish heads who act as a link between Erkin Koray, Can and Mad Professor" -- MOJO-- -- Nearly 30 years since their inception, the legendary Istanbul band Baba Zula remains the most experimental exponent of contemporary Turkish psych-rock; the sonic trailblazers of the nternationally revered Turkish psychedelic scene that includes Altin Gun, Gaye Su Akyol, Lalalar andDerya Yildirim & Grup Simsek.Baba Zula's shapeshifting, mind expanding music has brought them fans from all over the world, as well as visionary collaborators like dubmaster Mad Professor, drummer Jaki Liebezeit of Can and bassist Alexander Hacke of Einsturzende Neubauten (amongst many others).
Their new albumIstanbul Sokaklari (Streets of Istanbul) is akaleidoscopicmusical homage to the atmospheres and mysteries of their hometown. The record plays like a classic concept album, unfolding through a mixture of short ambient instrumentals, and pulsing, hypnotic long trackspowered by Turkish percussion, glitched electronics, deep bass, electric saz and Murat and Esma Ertel's dual vocals. It is a vividand compelling album from a band that continues to show us the future.
