Zaman 03:20
Zaman, Zaman, Zaman geldi Zaman, Zaman akar gider. Sen onu ne kadar sıkı tutmaya çalışırsan, senden o kadar kaçar. Her sabah selamlar, sonra karakuş gibi uçar. Zaman kimseye ait değil, ama herkeste var. Bu güne kadar çözmediler- zamanı

Karanlık bastı bu eve. Sen beni görmüyorsun. Sen beni duymazsın. Sana yükses sesle yakında olmaya çalıştım. Ayrılıyorum sessizce. Senden umudumu kestim. Sabrım bitti, sonunda. Aşkım söndü. Taşıyamam ikimizin yükünü. Güneş ışığı olmadan Güller solup, gider.

Stille Wasser sind tief Marianne Landbrieff Durch deine Augen würd ich gern die Welt sehen. Ich weiß nie was ich denke, wenn ich nicht hör, was ich sag. Doch deine Gedanken umfassen eine ganze Welt. Marianne Landbrieff, lass mich doch rein. Und Gast in deinen Gedanken sein. Deine Sprache kann ich nicht verstehen. Ich denke nur: man bist du schön! Du bist der Marianengraben, du bist der Marianengraben, du bist der Marianengraben, du bist mein Marianengraben. Du bist so schön! Du bist so schön! Du bist so schön! Du bist so - Aber ich versteh' dich nicht. Ich versteh' dich einfach nicht! Marianne Landbrieff, Marianne Landbrieff, Marianne Landbrieff.

Kader 02:11 video
Tanrıları oynadıklarında Tanri bize yardım etsin. Elleri kan dolu, bardakları kan dolu. Hayat verirler, can alırlar. Insanları sınıflandırırlar Hayatımı yargıla, cildimi yargıla. Kader seni yargılar. Elleri kan dolu, bardakları kan dolu. Sarhoşluğun sonunda ayılmak bekler. Elleri kan dolu, bardakları kan dolu Aşırı açlıktan ölüm. Gerçekler insanlar içindir. Kader seni yargılar, kader seni yargılar.

Incir ağacı bahçede çoktan unutulmuş. Yaprakların hışırtısında neşeyi ve acıları duyuyorum. Ben bir hayat yolcusuyum Unutulmuş anlılarda Yaşıyorum. Asma tatlı üzümleri taşıyor Tadı dilimde ve kalbimde Anılara bakıyorum Sanki onlar benim değilmiş gibi. Ben bir hayat yolcusuyum Unutulmuş anlılarda Yaşıyorum.

Tatli hayalim gülümsen kalbime şarkı söyletiyor. Sabah güneşi tenimi öpüyor. Keşke senden olsaydı, keşke senden olsaydı. Kalbime çarpan güneş ışığısın. Ruhumun bir parçasısın Yanımda olduğunda seni özlüyor. Eski bir sevgili gibi, eski bir sevgili gibi. Bu yalnızlık çölünde, bana nehir ol Bu hayatta birlikte olmasak bile Rüyalardayız. Güneş doğar güneş batar Tatli hayalim uyan. ay doğar, ay batar.

Smoke 02:30
Smoke dances with the wind Over the windowsill, up till it disappears Into the freezing air. My eyes tell the moon, the feelings inside of me. Silverlight over the streets, shimmering concret. Third of the way is done. There is no turing back. I walked all the way, in someone else's shoes. But just the moon knows, just the moon knows.

Oleander 04:08
Das Leben liebt die Träumer. Der Tag ist nass und grau. Das Rauschen in meinem Kopf Höre ich schon kaum. Die Welt tut weh, doch du tust gut. Ich halte es kaum aus Die Selbstgefälligkeit Wie viel es auch kostet, Der Preis bleibt immer gleich Du schenkst mir Trost, mit deinem Duft. Die Welt tut weh, doch du tust gut. Oleander, Oleander, Oleander

about

Does time pass differently when we cross borders? When we don't just move in a straight line in one direction, but go into the depths, travel into the past and sound out intermediate states? The Hamburg band Dunya makes very different dimensions audible on their debut album "Zaman" (Turkish for "time"): accelerating in anger, melting into memory, celebrating the fleeting. An absolute openness pervades the work of this five-member collective. For Dunya (Turkish for "world") sees itself as an unconditionally cosmopolitan band. Their songs oscillate poetically between Turkish, German and English. Constant changes of perspective that challenge in the most beautiful way. Which lead from pure understanding into a stimulating mysteriousness. That make time and existence vibrate beyond stress and usability. And all this embedded in a complex and at the same time extremely engaging sound between psychedelic rock and dream pop, between oriental flow and herbaceous noise. But as elegiac and experimental as Dunya's songs sound, the quintet is driven by a very concrete attitude: How does history influence us? And what do we have to do acutely now in this time so that we can live well together in the future? The band seeks answers in the artistic process, which beyond the music also includes the design of the artwork, sustainable merchandise and vinyl recycling. A mindful and expressive togetherness that gives plenty of impulses and is exciting to experience.

about

Dunya Hamburg, Germany

Dynamic riffing and broad soundscapes are aligned into a precisely arranged symbiosis of playful synthesizers and barbaric fuzz guitars.
Like lines from a fairytale, the self-titled EP invites gently to a mystical world and bright psychedelic rock dances around tender dream pop passages.
