Bebek is a musical ensemble that calls the city of brotherly love (Philadelphia, PA) their home. They are not necessarily a group that would normally be featured here at CYSTSFTS?, but whatever. Classifications be damned. On their new EP Open Eyes, the band lays down a dark, late-night, atmospheric, almost trip-hop foundation for the sultry female vocals of Lynn Michalopolous. The music is an interesting blend of dub-influenced world music grooves that is not unlike a combination of Portishead and the music of Cirque du Soleil.
Again, this is not punk. It is not even really very "indie" sounding. What Bebek does offer, though, is excellent musicianship and a unique, laid-back sound that many of you may be interested in. Have a listen.
