Dutch psychedelic quintet Altin Gün return with their fifth album, Garip – their most accomplished and eclectic release to date, and a heartfelt tribute to legendary Turkish folk-bard, Neset Ertas. Since bursting onto the scene in 2018 with their debut album, On, Amsterdam-based Altin 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 Baris 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. But no matter how far out they’ve gone, they’ve always maintained a strong link to the same Anatolian folk traditions that inspired those early pioneers. Founder and bassist, Jasper Verhuist says: “We’re doing the same thing a lot of those artists were doing, which is playing Turkish traditonals and songs written by folk artists.”
