Psychedelic rock band from Dalston, London formed by Yiğit Bülbül in 2014. Influenced by 60s psychedelia/garage, 70s experimental music, 80s/90s guitar drones and all sorts of other weird, obscure music. Essentially the solo project of Yiğit Bülbül, Love Hippies & Gangsters first came to our attention in January when the EP “Sun Over Babaluma” landed unsuspectingly in our inboxes. As mesmerizing and out there as the name suggests, all four tracks on the EP show a different side to Bülbül’s creative palette, from forward thinking psychedelia in the vein of the Brian Jonestown Massacre (‘This Is What We Want’) or Temples (‘Through Your Mind’) to the abstract experimental noise of ‘Got My Coat’. With an album set to be released later in the year, exciting times lay ahead.
