Avaz (album)
''Avaz'' is the third album by the Turkish band Replikas. Spending a lot of their early career in dingy backstreet venues of Istanbul, Replikas - “great Beyoglu hopes” (the Wire, UK) – have never taken much notice of the mainstream making so much noise around them or tried to make themselves easy to classify. In a country where popular musicians face challenges when trying to stand out, Replikas Replikas is a Turkish rock band from Istanbul. The band features consist of Gökçe Akçelik (vocals, guitar), Barkın Engin (guitar), Selçuk Artut (bass guitar), Orçun Baştürk (drums) and Burak Tamer (electronics). History Their debut alb ... have made a unique name for themselves. Taking inspiration from Avant- and Kraut-Rock, and adding Turkish elements with bits of traditional or cultures spices, their new album Avaz has a new bounce and, compared with their previous two post-punk/noise albums, a return-to-roots feel.

Experimental Rock
Experimental rock, also called avant-rock, is a subgenre of rock music that pushes the boundaries of common composition and performance technique or which experiments with the basic elements of the genre. Artists aim to liberate and innovate, with some of the genre's distinguishing characteristics being improvisational performances, avant-garde influences, odd instrumentation, opaque lyrics (or instrumentals), unorthodox structures and rhythms, and an underlying rejection of commercial aspirations. From its inception, rock music was experimental, but it was not until the late 1960s that rock artists began creating extended and complex compositions through advancements in multitrack recording. In 1967, the genre was as commercially viable as pop music, but by 1970, most of its leading players had incapacitated themselves in some form. In Germany, the krautrock subgenre merged elements of improvisation and psychedelic rock with electronic music, avant-garde and contemporary classic ...

The album was released by Ada Muzik in 2002. Dadaruhi can be described both as an instinctive outcome and the antithesis of Koledoyuran. The main attribute of the album is that the musical forms that were under focus have naturally blended into one another and none of them are predominant. Sampling technology was involved in the composing process, which provided the tracks with a varied and contemporary touch and enabled a more liberated use of sounds. Studio technology was not ruled out; the pure and unprocessed experience inherent in Koledoyuran was substituted by an effort to create an integrated album in atmosphere and sound. The album enjoyed contributions from ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
