OiTaTe Drops New Psychedelic Indie Single: “Arak Zachlawi”
OiTaTe, a new age psychedelic instrumental indie band, has recently released a captivating new single “Arak Zachlawi,” a blend of high strung guitars, complex polyrhythms, and entrancing Eastern scales. This trio from Tel Aviv never ceases to surprise with their genre-defining songs, and this new single does just that – it is neither stimulatingnor calming, but intoxicating. It perfectly encapsulates what its name alludes to: a heady, smoky vibe.
OiTaTe draws from remarkably diverse influences, but their structure of jazz, world music, and indie rockis more rigid. They craft new age ancient Anatolian and Middle Eastern sound which reminds listeners of Altin Gun and The Smile. An addition to the catalog of OiTaTe, ‘Arak Zachlawi” sets a new standard for psychedelic grooves shifting effortlessly to beats. The song fits perfectly within playlists labeled as Experimental Rock Fusion, Anatolian Psychedelic Rock, and Middle Eastern Psychedelia.
OiTaTe was founded by seasoned producers Ofer and Eran Prion with laudable rock drumming talent MatanAvnher. The band started from a simple experimental jam session in Jaffa, but pulled influences from all over the globe to create a full-fledged project now. Drawing from Mediterranean, Balkan, African, and Western cultures, OiTaTe expertly crafts an immersive instrumental experience.
With “Arak Zachlawi,” OiTaTe breaks the genres yet again. The song is a wild rhythmic journey through time and sound threads.
