2 track ep featuring more stellar studio work by anatolian weapons as he deepens explorations in acid downtempo perfection.

unter seinem pseudonym anatolian weapons verbindet baltas polyrhythmische perkussion und klagende töne der griechischen volksmusik mit einer mitreißenden und offenen krautrock-attitüde. das album earth nimmt uns mit auf eine mystische reise durch das nordgriechische hochland, untermalt von baltas einzigartigem maschinengestütztem folk, der mit psychedelischen drones durchsetzt ist und eine aura ausstrahlt, die weder damals noch heute, weder dort noch hier ist. stattdessen existiert es in einer kleinen tasche seines eigenen kosmos. ein kreuzungspunkt der dimensionen. ein mystisches angebot an die natur und die götter.

brand new lurid by anatolian weapons, with a splendid khidja remix.

eine dringend benötigte veröffentlichung, die in keiner respektablen new beat-sammlung fehlen darf. die zweite und letzte single des zsa zsa laboum-projekts, die ursprünglich 1989 kurz nach dem erfolg von -something scary- veröffentlicht wurde.

incl. anatolian weapons remix

something scary ist wahrscheinlich eines der repräsentativsten beispiele für den belgischen new beat, als sich das genre zum hard beat wandelte, und stammt von einer der schlüsselfiguren in der explosion der frühen belgischen rave-szene, rembert de smet. schon in den ersten sekunden des tracks wird der hörer mit einer der wohl unvergesslichsten acid-basslinien des new beat konfrontiert, die das menschliche ohr je erreicht haben. sehr direkt und charakteristisch für ein genre, das aus studioexperimenten zu einer zeit hervorging, als sich chicago acid etablierte und bereits das vereinigte königreich kontaminierte.

journey from digital reggae over tropical balearic vibes to boogie and wave

exciting compilation featuring some of the best 45s, released 1974-77, by anadolu pop singer gulden karabocek. on these tracks, originally released 1972-77, youll find a mix of traditional anatolian melodies and instruments like ba&#287,,lama and zurna mixed with synthesizers, wah-wah guitars and psych-funk arrangements.

second proper studio album originally released in 1976 by the king of turkish psych/anatolian rock. recorded in belgium with help from session musicians related to placebo, janko nilovic and mad unity among others, nick the chopper features lyrics in english, huge orchestral sections, and re-arrangements of many of the melodies from his masterpiece 2023. bar&#305,&#351, spent his whole life trying to communicate to the wider world outside turkey. this was his last attempt at doing so with an album before turning to a travel television show to visit faraway places and talk to the young and old, one on one. every production trick of the glorious 1970s was deployed to push bar&#305,&#351, up the european charts, and now they can push him right into your brain instead.

lena willikens is the kind of artist whos only capable of following one path her own. in many ways, shes the archetypal selector, an unpredictable dj who often eschews all notions of genre in favor of what she describes as different temperatures, different time zones, different moods and a healthy portion of chaos. although her methods have certainly proven effective on the dancefloor, willikens also refuses to be bound by its traditional limitations.

famous for their matching, colourful suits and always-happy smiles, beyaz kelebekler (white butterflies) were a mixed-gender turkish band very popular during the 70s. they released one album plus numerous 45s in turkey and other countries like holland and italy. in 1976 during the last day of their european tour, just after one gig in cologne, beyaz kelebekler visited a studio of a friend which was still in construction. they decided to record a few songs, just for fun and for testing the new studio equipment. it was a very basic, one take recording, using an 8-channel mixer, a few mics and a reel-to reel tape machine. the result was an amazing example of anatolian psych-funk, featuring wah-fuzz guitar, flute, heavy drums, joyous male / female vocals. unreleased until now, here is the first ever release of these surprising recordings, rescued from the only surviving cassette tape.

brand new anatolian psych-pop sensation ! 4 heart-melting gems where turkish folk meets groove and electric action! young singer/multi-instrumentist derya y&#305,,ld&#305,,r&#305,,m teams up with fantastic drummer greta eacott (g-bop orchestra / one-take records) and 3 quarters of catapulte records orchestre du montplaisant (antonin voyant, graham mushnik, andrea piro). with members originating from turkey, germany, france, italy and great britain, grup &#350,,im&#351,,ek (pronounce shimshek) encapsulates the outernational generation. their debut ep kicks off with legendary a&#351,,&#305,,k mahzuni &#350,,erif s nem kald&#305,,, a groovy lament with killer melodyline, where saz and synth wave through a stream of wah-wah guitar arpeggios. graham mushnik-penned instrumental 3.2,2.3 is a 5/4 psychedelic mover lead by the acid sounds of the organ - a subtle tribute to the architects of anatolian rock mo&#287,,ollar ? on side b, derya delivers a splendid interpretation of Özdemir erdo&#287,,an s song gurbet. gurbet is a turkish word describing a particular form of homesickness: watching from afar as things turn bad in your homeland. davet, a grup &#350,,im&#351,,ek composition, is a dancey, saz-lead song likely to shake many dancefloors with emotion. the lyrics are drawn from a poem by naz&#305,,m hikmet, father of modern turkish poetry. grup &#350,,im&#351,,ek have already hit the stage in germany, uk, france, italy and switzerland (f.k.a. intercommunal orchestra) and are planning some more. anatolian invasion on its way!

180g ltd ed 300 copies,
peur bleue records is pleased to present the imminent release of gohan s ep, ‘stabbed in konya’. you ll find a private link below for listening and downloading the entire ep on soundcloud.it describes a tragic journey into a fictional depiction of konya - a raucous and hostile anatolian city torn apart by mysticism and conservatism. the ep explores a landscape of detroit electro vibrations and dodgy murmurs whilst offering gracious melodic digressions along the way. after the album peur and the ep hedge fund released in 2012, gohan comes back with a new imaginary soundtrack on the edge of violence and grace, exploiting harmonic and texture flaws, enigmatic collages and a grinding bassline.
