Islandman reimagines the deep-rooted expressive forms of Anatolian music through contemporary sonic design, bridging ancestral melodies with modern composition. For Islandman, Anatolia is not a relic of the past, but a living cultural memory that continues to evolve with the present. Rather than preserving tradition in a fixed form, they let it breathe, stretch, and grow naturally into today's soundscape. Their approach gives rise to what they describe as Neo-Turkish Psychedelia—not a reinvention, but a continuation: a way of letting Turkish psychedelic music live on, mature, and speak in the language of today. Born from the imagination of Tolga Böyük, Islandman gradually transformed into a trio—completed by the psychedelic guitar work of Erdem Başer and the meditative percussion of Eralp Güven. As a sonic collective with no fixed borders, their live performances unfold at the intersection of the acoustic and the electronic: part ceremony, part dancefloor, often reflective, always immersive.
