Turkish Psych

Turkish psych is a genre of music that draws on the psychedelic sounds of the 1960s and 1970s, fusing them with traditional Turkish instruments and rhythms. It features swirling guitars, hypnotic rhythms, and often incorporates elements of Turkish folk music. Artists such as Barış Manço and Erkin Koray are considered pioneers of Turkish psych, which has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity in recent years among fans of psychedelic and world music.
