Yol is the full-length follow-up to the bands 2019 LP Gece, which earned a Grammy nomination for Best World Music Album. Fronted by vocalists Merve Dasdemir and Erdin Ecevit, Altin Gn have won worldwide acclaim for their reimaginings of traditional Turkish folk songs through the lens of pop and psych-rock. 2020s coronavirus quarantine forced the band to write music in a completely new way, trading demos and ideas over email, and the resulting songs mark a new direction for the band as well, with a shift to a sleeker, synth-driven Europop sound.
Yol displays a noticeable dreaminess, maybe born from this enforced time to reflect. And select elements of late 1970s or early 1980s Euro synth pop also shine through. This new musical landscape was nurtured by certain instrument choices; namely the Omnichord, heard on Arda Boylari, Kara Toprak and Sevda Olmasaydi, and the drum-machine, an instrument that is key to the gorgeous closing number, Esmerim Gzelim. Dasdemir once more: bass player Jasper Verhulst loved the song. He said, it doesnt sound like Altin Gn, this sounds like a Turkish kindergarten music teacher from the 1980s using an 808!
