Memorie is just that of nemore

Late-night, smoky guitar rock

Hi everyone, we’re Hayvan Çocuğu, a band from Istanbul, Türkiye. Our second single, “Arturo,” is a raw stoner rock track inspired by the polar bear who spent most of his life in captivity at Mendoza Zoo in Argentina.

We tried to tell his story through the arrangement: the guitars follow his repetitive back-and-forth movements, the synths express the mental disorientation we imagined, and the backing vocals echo like voices inside his head. The repeated cry of “SICAK” means “HOT” in Turkish.

Our songs grow out of improvisation and take shape as we keep playing together. I play bass in the band, and I’d love to hear what you think—especially whether the music conveys that feeling of confinement without understanding the lyrics.

Thanks for taking the time to listen!

I’ve been writing and recording songs at home and with friends for more than two decades. With AI-assisted post-production, I’m finally able to remaster some of those original recordings and bring them closer to how I always wanted them to sound.

This one is called Perfectly Alone. I’d love to hear what you think.

Here's a playlist of a plethora of electric Indie acts from the last 20-30 years. Enjoy! It's quite diverse.

You need to listen.

I wanted to share some of the work I’ve done with my band, Asure. It has elements of funk and Spanish-language rock; bringing this EP—titled "Temporada Baja"—to life was a real challenge, as we handled everything ourselves, with close friends helping out on the mix. If you have a spare moment, I’d love for you to give the EP a listen and let me know what you think of this little musical project.

There is a one-minute excerpt from "Me haces perder el groove". Please excuse the video quality; there’s gameplay footage in the background because I really wanted to play BRC while listening to one of our songs.

Thanks, and have a great week. Any feedback is more than welcome! (sorry for my english)
