So here it is at last: that much-needed fresh perspective for the alternative indie sound that is and always has been so obvious. ENGIN fuse psychedelic pop with Anatolian rock and establish an off-the-cuff style that is unparalleled in this country. Although the three wonderfully open Mannheimers have only released their second album, "Mesafeler" (2024), it has made a name for itself in the local feuilletons up and down the country, word has quickly spread about what a stroke of luck this reinvention of German-Turkish pop music really is. As eclectic as the musical influences are, as varied and honest are the lyrics, in which singer Engin Devekiran addresses alienation and reconciliation, beauty and dirt, the whole tragicomic life between cultures. A band that, despite its young career, has great things ahead of it. With a successful tour of Turkey behind them, ENGIN will be presenting new songs between melancholy and brute force on their "Seker Tour 2025".
