A kaleidoscopic, two-disc, career spanning compilation from Istanbul?s revered psychedelic explorers Baba Zula. Esteemed collaborators include Sly & Robbie, Mad Professor, Dr. Das of Asian Dub Foundation, Alexander Hacke (Einst?rzende Neubaten) and more. Without a doubt one of the planet?s great musical adventures. Formed by Ertel and Levent Akman in 1996, Baba Zula took Turkish psychedelic pioneers of the 1960s like Mogollar as their inspiration and foundation for what they called Istanbul psychedelia, the fathers of a scene that?s since grown up around them. Baba Zula came into existence when Ertel?s previous outfit, ZeN, was asked to create a soundtrack by a director friend. Ertel and two other members were interested, and the band grew from that seed, with music for films very much a part of their output.
