Career
VEYasin produced his first album at 18 and has produced many more inside and outside Turkey.[6] In this project he recreates and remixes 1970s psychedelic, funk and soul songs from Anatolia and other Turkish regions.
1970s popular music of Turkey fused East and West. Rock and pop groups combined Eastern and Western instruments for the first time. VEYasin discovered this "old hip music" and "polishes it with today's technology".[7]

Other projects include Mode XL, with some of those tracks attracting over 7.7 million YouTube views (February 2019).[9]
