Description
Iggy PopやDJ Kocoが絶賛し、瞬く間に完売。ドイツ在住のトルコ人アーティストPeki Momésが、アナトリアン・サイケとダーティー・ディスコを融合させた無国籍なサウンドで世界を席巻。
ドイツを拠点に活動するPeki Momésは、2024年に偶然の重なりから録音を開始したという異色の経歴を持つ。正規の音楽教育を受けず、直感とスタイルのみを武器に放ったデビュー・シングル「Göc Mevsimi」は、世界的なターンテーブリストDJ Kocoが2枚使いでプレイ。続く「Rüya」はBBCの番組でIggy Popに紹介されるなど、瞬く間に世界中の鋭い耳を持つDJやコレクターたちを虜にした。Marcos Valleの名曲をトルコ語でカヴァーした前作も即完売。本作は、異なるラベル・デザインで仕上げられた待望の重版だ。
プロデューサーDustin Braunと精鋭ジャズ・ミュージシャンたちが奏でるサウンドは、ダーティーなディスコやファズの効いたファンク、さらには日本のシティ・ポップやライブラリー・ミュージックまでを飲み込んだボーダレスなもの。そこにPeki Momés特有の浮遊感漂うヴォーカルが重なり、唯一無二のサイケデリックな情景を描き出す。言葉の壁を超えて響く希望と連帯のメッセージが、重厚なアンサンブルと共に空間を鮮やかに彩る。

The stunning debut album by Peki Momés is back in store after selling out the first edition in a few weeks! This 2nd pressing has a different label design. Featuring twelve outstanding original tunes. Turkish psychedelic, global disco and outernational!
Peki Momés is a Turkish artist living in Germany - who only started to record music by accident in 2024. Blessed with style and intuition rather than formal education, her fresh and uncompromisingly authentic approach to music took hearts and ears by storm.
Ever since her debut 45 on Mocambo Records, Peki Momés has become a little sensation in and outside the organic groove scene: turntablist DJ Koco played doubles of "Göc Mevsimi" in his set, Iggy Pop announced "Rüya" on his "Iggy Confidential" show on BBC and the second vinyl single surprised everyone with a mesmerizing cover of Marco Valle's much loved "Estrelar" in the turkish language. Both records sold out quickly and are in the bags of tastemakers like Coco Maria.
Peki Momés' music is an eclectic mix of sounds from the global underground, tastefully crafted by producer Dustin Braun and a troupe of ridiculously talented jazz musicians. Dirty disco, fuzzy funk, anatolian rare grooves, experimental synth, library music and japanese city pop all blend naturally with her distinct vocals to create a unique ethereal outernational sound that is all her own.
Once dubbed as 'turkish discodelic', Peki's songs have a dreamlike, enchanted and psychedelic quality and instantly take the listener on a journey. In a poetic way, she approaches topics like "dreams and a naive fear of losing or not fulfilling them" or expresses "worries about our weary world and call for solidarity from all" - always with an outlook of hope. You do not have to speak turkish to understand - the message is transported by a universal language.
With her debut album, Peki Momés is now telling her full story. Displaying a young Peki on the cover, the artwork hints at the freshness and enthusiasm of the project. We should consider ourselves lucky that Peki chose to disrespect rules in favor of self-empowerment and made this wonderful longplayer that you never knew you needed.
