Alatav
Alatav is a band of street musicians playing at Istiklal Street, Beyoglu, Istanbul. Their music has Turkish folk music elements and they try to combine different cultures in their music. They love playing on the streets, which combine all sorts of people from all cultures, like their music.
They are a professional but independent group. Despite having begun their journey playing with different bands, the members over time developed a common outlook which led to the current Alatav shape. The biggest difference between them and other groups is that they are completely outside the chain that dictates the commercial music world.
With this conscious approach they have refused all attempts to be integrated in the world of record companies and deliberately have chosen to play in the streets where the biggest audiences can be found. Instead of just being classic buskers, they use the streets to record, produce and market their music.
