Ali Kuru took a decision some years ago not to seek publicity, preferring instead to let his music speak for itself. Egzotik, his long awaited debut album, seems to have a fair few stories to tell. Smothered in evocative field recordings made around his home city of Istanbul, the album is notable for fusing exotic Persian instrumentation with grooves and sounds more readily associated with cosmic disco, krautrock, dub, Balearica and Detroit beatdown. On paper, it’s an unusual combination that should sound forced or contrived. In reality, it’s a brilliant example of an artist with a singular artistic vision achieving his goals. Put it this way: it’s amongst the most inspired and enjoyable debut albums we’ve heard this year.
