Ayyuka

Ayyuka is an innovative Turkish band based in Istanbul, formed in 2001. Known for their fresh take on Turkish psychedelic music, they have become synonymous with blending traditional 1970s Turkish sounds with modern influences from genres like funk, afrobeat, dub, and arabesque.

Their music goes beyond nostalgia, merging influences from Turkish music icons such as Erkin Koray and Orhan Gencebay with the experimental energy of international figures like Dick Dale and John Frusciante.
