2023 cover
Released

In the mid 1970s Turkish musician Barış Manço got to work to create one of the most futuristic, cosmic sounding Anatolian psych albums to date, a sprawling conceptual record that imagined the 100 years between the founding of the modern Turkish Republic and the year 2023. His voice, spoken at times, sounds as if it’s being beamed from a different universe — or a different time perhaps — as cosmic synths, electronic sounds effects, and artificial sounding drum machines intertwined with electronically treated saz, ney flutes, and the band’s psychedelic grooves.
