The word ayyuka has two very different meanings: to the highest part of the sky and to tell that a secret has been revealed (an idiom); both meanings describe Ayyuka's music perfectly. Ayyuka patiently spins all the yarns of its name and connotations. Various types of music such as Anatolian rock, arabesque, punk, surf, psychedelic rock, funk are all melt together meticulously by Ayyuka. Ayyuka s music is not just a simple extension of Western music or a genre easily blended with local motives. Ayyuka have played with the likes of Sonic Youth and Jonathan Richmond. http://www.myspace.com/ayyuka Influences: RHCP, Fugazi, Orhan gencebay, Erkin Koray, Queens of the stone age, The Mars Volta, Pj Harvey, Jack White, Beastie Boys, Pink Floyd, John Frusciante, Marc Ribot, Radiohead, Ataxia...
