A slick, often boisterous funky ride with a little alla turca sparkle, hitting all the right notes and unexpected beats.
Get ready to feel the supreme power of funk with MUZ087 Funky Guitar composed by Alper Yalçın.
MUZ087 Funky Guitar brings together rich, familiar funk structures alongside extraordinary funk fusion rooted in Turkish rhythms, melodies, percussion and Balkan brass. With guitar performances played by Alper Yalçın himself; memorable riffs and a dynamic structure pull the rhythm upward instantly, this album's sound grabs you from the very first note and doesn't let go.
Starting off with ‘Babas Got A Brand New Turk’ you're instantly pulled into a trouble-tinged chase, moving through the streets of ‘Alley Cat Strut’ with curious, nimble steps; by the time you hop on ‘Funk Train’, the Hammond organ and drums already locked in daring you to keep still, while ‘Film Noir Funk’ casts you as the lead in your own smoky detective story. Just when you think you've figured it out, ‘Funky Thracian’ flips the map with a clarinet taksim and an unexpected twist, ‘Swagger Squad’ hands the stage unapologetically to the bass guitar's ego, and ‘Stank Face Activator’ locks you in with dirty guitars and brass. A ride full of surprises, attitude, and undeniable groove.
From commercials to TV series, from social media content to brand films, this album speaks a flexible, high-energy musical language that brings character to any project. It brings together the warmth of traditional motifs and the quality of modern guitar recordings in the same pot.
With 14 tracks in total, MUZ087 FUNKY GUITAR speaks a flexible, high-energy musical language that’ll bring character to any project. You’ll definitely struggle to stay still while listening.
