A voice of gold – Having founded the country’s first ever rock and roll group in 1957, he is regarded worldwide as the father of Turkish rock. Forging western sounds with his own inimitable musical mastery, he self-produced singles and LPs throughout the 1960s and 1970s that shook and altered Turkish society.Erkin didn't stop at rock and roll. Over time, he began to find inspiration in folk sounds from Turkey's Anatolian interior, and radio broadcasts received from Egypt and Lebanon.
He looked to the east from his west-leaning Istanbul perch, and began incorporating these sounds into his own work. This amalgamation was as unprecedented and unorthodox in Istanbul at the time as rock and roll itself had been in the 1950s.

The resulting hybrid sound ignited what became known as the Arabesque music movement in Turkey – which continues to this day.While Erkin has recorded and performed tirelessly throughout the years, both as a solo artist, and with the powerful groups he formed, his extensive back catalogue only began to be explored by the international community in the 1990s.He is now recognized as one of the foremost global leaders of psychedelic, folk rock, pop and balladry. His music has stood the test of time more than many of his western contemporariesand influences have managed to, and his prolific work ethic has not ceased. He continues to live and breathe music, performing epic concerts, and continuously plotting new recordings and strategies. His vision and integrity, coupled with his pronounced world views and inherent musical greatness, have made him the unique and magnificent living legend he is today.This collection features tracks not found on the many unauthorized Erkin compilations and LP reissues that have emerged in the west over the years. Ranging from the sublime to the surreal, these tracks offer an essential glimpse into the extensive repertoire of the great Erkin Koray. © 2020 SublimeFrequenciesPowered.
Mechul: Singles 7 Rarities Label: Sublime Frequencies US Release Date: 2011-08-30 UK Release Date: 2011-09-05Turkish retrospectives have been coming out on Western labels in a slow trickle for years: Edip Akbayram on Shadoks, Selda on Finders Keepers, pop and rock musicians from the '60s and '70s, rolling out their electrified sazzes, their chaise-lounge, sweet-drawling voices, their folk songs jumping up into protest music as the politics of their country simmered around them. Erkin Koray slips in among the rest, a good solid act, all the local music and the outside psyche-rock influences tightly melded. 'The first person to ever play rock and roll in Turkey; in 1957,' claims his publicity.

He loves to set up the listeners' expectations with long introductions on tracks like 'Mechul', 'Cumbur Cemaat', and 'Goca Dunya', and then hit them with something not too slow, not too fast, with something that sustains itself between laziness and tension, a slow voice and a quick handclap, or the ingenious shiver-'n-jab of violins on 'Sevdigem'.
