A captivating collage of music from all corners of the earth, Ipek Yolu is the Turkish name for “The Silk Road”, which has connected the East and West for centuries, sharing flavors, colors and culture between the countries and peoples along its path. At the moment, the Silk Road is experimenting with new spices and flavors in the shape of new band members. Ipek Yolu now takes the form of a highly dynamic quartet, mixing the sounds of Turkish psychedelic folk with African and South American inspired rhythms, with a slight twist of hip-hop and jazz fusion. The focus of their sound is still on heavy grooves and burning Saz melodies, but electronic loops have now been upgraded to live drums, courtesy of the dynamic and award winning jazz/hip-hop drummer Frederik Bülow. Another new addition is the highly acclaimed keyboardist Malthe Jepsen, who is famous for his technical ability and blazing synth solos. The band consists of the following line-up: Orhan Özgur (saz/vocals), Olaf Brinch (bass), Frederik Bülow (drums) and Malthe Jepsen (keys). « hide |
