“This is a David Lynch film, not a song. And I mean that as a compliment.”
-Dylan Schink [Echoes and Dust]

 

Pitohui is a four-piece experimental/psychedelic rock band from İstanbul. Since its formation in 2012, the band has been diversifying its sound palette with samples, electronics, and brass elements. Over the years, Pitohui released several EPs and singles, all of which were built upon improvised studio sessions to form multi-layered structures.

 

The foursome blends motorik rhythms into twisty rides, and densest sounds into effervescent melodies, carving out a playground with lots of highs and lows along the way.
