Amsterdam-based Altın Gün have already blazed a glorious trail with their Turkish psych-folk. In their now familiar uplifting mix, they fuse psychedelic rock, funk, synthpop and cosmic reggae with the rich traditions of Anatolian folk music. It earned them a 2019 Grammy nomination for Best World Music Album. On Istanbul Ekspres, they play their latest album (2023) "Aşk", returning to their musical roots. The album features ten reworked Turkish folk songs recorded with vintage equipment. On it, they hark back to the Anatolian folk-rock of the 1970s that you could hear on their first records, with the difference that they are now going through life as a five-piece band. Don't worry, they haven't lost the intoxicating vibes and grooves!
