Tracklist:
Ahead of their European tour, Turkish electronic group Islandman announced the release of the EP Popsicle Obstacle, out October 13 on Music For Dreams. The new material collected on the EP tracks a musical pathway from archaic folk traditions and regional acoustics through the electronic sequencer, from the spiritualist dream of the primitive past to the glossy utopia of the digital future.
The core members of Islandman are multi-instrumentalist & producer Tolga Böyük and Eralp Güven (percussion), and Erdem Başer (guitars). Islandman have become known for their live performances, as anyone who has witnessed their live streams from Istanbul for the London Jazz Festival and Boiler Room can attest to. The Popsicle Obstacle EP follows the group’s third album, Godless Ceremony of 2021, and their 2022 EP Bahar. The dates of Islandman’s upcoming European tour are listed below.

Some years ago i spent 2 month in Xela Guatemala. Every morning there were some Kolibri coming. I enjoyed that very much. Furthermore we went to visit the biotopo del qetzales. Then i read a Book about quetzales and the Popol Vuh.
Furthermore we stayed for some in Peru at the Lago yarincoches and the ucayali River.
The Music is like this My experience.
Ist Fits with actuality!

Yesterday, Tomorrow, now here!…
