Kesif by Sanr
The debut for Turkish duo Sanr. Kesif is a truly expansive album inspired by word play in Turkish as well as themes of loss and renewal. It is centred on extended use of the traditional Cura instrument, alongside source material ranging from broken records, recordings of gas heaters, dishwashers and heating pipes to experimentations with demijohns and marbles. This restlessly experimental album introduces us to a singular sound world.
Sanr are Altuğ Kaptan and Devrim Kınlı. The pair are based in İzmir, Turkey.
