A filmed live session by the band Altın Gün in the KEXP radio studio in Seattle, recorded on 9 September 2026. Formed in the Netherlands around a repertoire of rearranged Anatolian folk, the collective revisits four songs here — “Gönül Dağı,” “Neredesin Sen,” “Bir Nazar Eyledim” and “Zülüf Dökülmüş Yüze” — blending electric saz, analogue synths, deep bass and percussion. Led by Erdinç Ecevit’s voice and saz playing, this full performance showcases the psychedelic “Anadolu pop” that earned the band international recognition and Grammy nominations. The KEXP recording, polished and tight on the musicians, highlights the hypnotic grooves and modal melodies of Turkish tradition transposed into a rock-electronic format. For fans of world music, psychedelic folk and fusion, this filmed live concert in Seattle is an ideal distillation of Altın Gün’s identity: a bridge between Anatolian heritage and contemporary energy, captured with KEXP’s sonic and visual rigour. A filmed live set that rewards fans of cross-cultural fusion and curious newcomers alike.
