In this video, we explore the origins of Anatolian Rock - a unique blend of Western rock and traditional Asian/Ottoman music. Birthed in the 1920s during Turkey's independence from the Ottoman empire, this genre became a symbol of the country's progressive beliefs and cultural identity. After being banned in the 80s, the rise of the internet led to a resurgence of the genre, with bands like King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard incorporating its unique sound into their own music. Join us as we delve into the history and global influences of Anatolian Rock.
