Baba Zula
Baba Zula, stylized as BaBa ZuLa, is a Turkish alternative musical group founded
in Istanbul in 1996 by Levent Akman, Osman Murat Ertel, and Emre Onel as a side
project of the psychedelic Anatolian rock group ZeN. The band began performing
internationally at the Kumanova Jazz Festival in 2003, building an international
audience alongside a cult following in Turkey. Its sound combines traditional
Turkish instruments, such as the electric saz, with electronica, reggae, and
dub. In 2005, the group gained wider international recognition when it was
featured in the Fatih Akin document...
