Jakuzi

Turkish synth-pop duo Jakuzi are set to release their debut album, ‘Fantezi Müzik’, through City Slang on 24 Mar. A record with many sides, it manages to be both lo-fi and bold in its production, with influences that dig deep roots into the 80s while still sounding progressive and new too.

Lead single ‘Koca Bir Saçmalık’ sums Jakuzi’s sound up well, with multiple genres pulled together to create one cohesive whole. Kutay Soyocak’s vocals bring a gothic edge to the track, with lyrics apparently dealing with disappointment, sacrifice and anger. Overall though, there is a lighter sonic tone, ensuring an underlying optimism.
