Kaynatan, Gokcen
Moda/firtina
Slovenly is proud to present the first ever official reissue of a Turkish holy grail - the 1966 tripped-out surf 45 by
Istanbul's Gökçen Kaynatan. Originals of this record - his first ever release, and from 1966 - are so rare that none of
our Turkish pals have ever seen a copy, and believe us, they've been on the hunt! "Moda / Firtina" is the platter from
his early years as a teenage rock'n'roller, and these two tracks each offer a compelling listen and demand motion. While
mostly drenched in the twang of his custom built guitar with relentlessly swinging beats, his budding experimentation
with electronics steals the show. Imagine the sought-after Countdown! LP by legendary session man Jimmy Haskell with an
Anatolian lean during the peak of modernism and you're starting to get the point. Gökçen Kaynatan was recently honored
by Finders Keepers with an LP reissue of his 70s-era pioneering in electronic realms that reminds of Suicide and Mort
Garson, but with the pungent tang of Turkey. This dancefloor ready 7-inch, however, fills a glaring gap for the WILD,
and satisfies the raw global itch that is the Slovenly Recordings modus operandi.
