Auch 30 Jahre nach ihrer Gründung ist diese legendäre Band aus Istanbul nach wie vor der experimentellste Vertreter der vielbeachteten zeitgenössischen türkischen Psych-Rock-Szene, zu der Künstler *innen wie Altın Gün, Gaye Su Akyol, Lalalar and Derya Yıldırım & Grup Şimşek gehören.
BaBa ZuLa wurde von Levent Akman (spoons, percussions, machines, toys) und Murat Ertel (elektrische Saz und andere Saiteninstrumente, Gesang, Theremin) gegründet, die als wegweisende Klangpioniere gelten und eine weltweite Kult-Anhängerschaft aufgebaut haben und zu deren Fans Bands wie Einstürzende Neubauten, Can und Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds zählen. Das renommierte MOJO-Magazin beschrieb sie einst als „türkische Veteranen, die eine Verbindung zwischen Erkin Koray, Can und Mad Professor herstellen”.
BaBa ZuLa’s Songs sind pulsierende, hypnotische Tracks, die von türkischen Percussions, frickliger Elektronik, tiefen Bässen, einer elektrischer Saz getragen werden. Sie sind oft ein lebhaftes klangliches und politisches Statement einer Band, die uns weiterhin die Zukunft zeigt.
Apropos Zukunft. 2026 feiern BaBa ZuLa 30-jähriges Bandbestehen. Neben eines Best-Of-Albums wird es auch neue Songs geben. Und das Wichtigste: Eine große Europatour, um all das, was in den letzten 30 Jahren im Bandkontext passiert ist, mit euch gebührend zu feiern.
____________________________________________

Even 30 years after its founding, this legendary band from Istanbul remains the most experimental representative of the highly acclaimed contemporary Turkish psych rock scene, which includes artists such as Altın Gün, Gaye Su Akyol, Lalalar and Derya Yıldırım & Grup Şimşek.
BaBa ZuLa was founded by Levent Akman (spoons, percussion, machines, toys) and Murat Ertel (electric saz and other string instruments, vocals, theremin), who are considered pioneering sound innovators and have built up a worldwide cult following, with fans including bands such as Einstürzende Neubauten, Can and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. The renowned MOJO magazine once described them as ‘Turkish veterans who bridge the gap between Erkin Koray, Can and Mad Professor’.

BaBa ZuLa's songs are pulsating, hypnotic tracks carried by Turkish percussion, glitched electronics, deep bass and an electric saz. They are often a lively sonic and political statement from a band that continues to show us the future.
Speaking of the future: in 2026 BaBa ZuLa will celebrate their 30th anniversary. In addition to a best-of album, there will also be new songs. And most importantly, a big European tour to celebrate with you everything that has happened in the band's context over the last 30 years.
