There are mysterious records. Records hiding and showing something at the same time. This is one of them. It is made from two records that were most probably released in the mid-1970s, most probably primarily by Turkish Roma.

It brings together what Anadolu pop music lovers always dream of: Anatolian geleneksel (traditional folk
tunes), disco and funk, jazz and hard rock, psychedelic sounds, hard-hitting drums, Arabesk percussion,
and hip-hop friendly breaks. Put together in a careful, smooth production with a warm, relaxed and dance-friendly vibe.

Here you get it: Roma-nized instrumental Turkish pop music in all its facets of the 1970s.
