Les Disques Bongo Joe are proud to announce the release of Derya Yildirim & Grup Simsek’s Dost 1&2! This double gold printed LP gathers all tracks from the acclaimed Dost 1 and Dost 2 released respectively in 2021 and 2022. Derya Yildirim & Grup Simsek’s subtle and groovy Anatolian psych folk sound matches the powerful quality of the songs often led by Yildirim’s sublime vocals and baglama (Turkish lute). They captured a lively, unique piece of interpretation which connects to the meaning of ‘Dost’. “DOST is a friend, a comrade, a brother, a sister and even more than that. DOST is the connection to keep this life and world meaningful”. No doubt that with this project Derya Yildirim & Grup Simsek will bring sounds, people and emotions together.
