BaBa ZuLa

BaBa ZuLa announce new album, out 25 September via Glitterbeat — thirty years on and still untamed. Lead single “Kutsal Zeytin Halayı”, a sunbaked motorik trance arriving with a visualiser that celebrates the olive tree as a sacred symbol — “We see nature under constant pressure. We want to stand on the side of those who defend it.”

Belgian psychedelic jazz collective Compro Oro announce new collaboration with Murat Ertel, co-founder and frontman of Istanbul’s cult psychedelic folk band BaBa ZuLa and his singer partner Esma Ertel.

Derin Derin is the latest release from Baba Zula, a four-piece band from Istanbul – Fractured yet unifying and exhilarating as they coax beauty and meaning from different sounds, styles and cultures.
