Altın Gün

Dutch psychedelic quintet Altın Gün return with their fifth album, Garip – their most accomplished and eclectic release to date, and a heartfelt tribute to legendary Turkish folk-bard, Neşet Ertaş. Since bursting onto the scene in 2018 with their debut album, On, Amsterdam-based Altın Gün have been at the vanguard of the 21st century revival of Turkish-influenced psychedelic grooves. Coming straight out of the gate with a wah-wah and organ heavy sound that effortlessly captured the spirit of Anatolian 70s psych-funk masters like Barış Manço and Erkin Koray, they deepened and expanded their palette with 2021’s Yol, which brought synths and drum machines into the mix for a more 80s-influenced dream-pop vibe.
