“A heady argument for joy… adventurous bangers without borders.” – PITCHFORK

Amsterdam based Turkish-psych innovators Altın Gün are launching a new 2-song digital single to kick-off their spring tour dates in Europe and North America. The focus track “Badİ Sabah Olmadan” is a pulsing, dark hued rocker that captures the energized essence of a band at the height of their powers. The band’s original version of the track can be found on their Bandcamp-only album Âlem – released in the summer of 2021. The band tells us this about their boiling new version:“‘Badİ Sabah Olmadan’ is a traditional love song from the town of Kırşehir, where the poet begs his lover to come to him before the night ends. We recorded an electronic version for our charity album Âlem, and then started to play it live with the band. We liked it so much that we decided to record a live band version. Happy to play it for our fans this spring!”

The second offering on the digital single is “Cips Kola Kilit“. It is the original version that appeared on Âlem. It is defined by an 80’s feel, and beat patterns enhanced with synth washes and a softly spoken, seductive rap. Mojo magazine praised its “New Order-y fluidity.”
