Born in the early 90’s, Burak aka Bákayan has spent his life nurturing his love for music. Bákayan grew up in the quiet countryside of South Germany, where he quickly began filling the silence with musical creation. As a child he taught himself how to play the guitar and soon found his voice singing and writing songs. Honing and developing his very own style of verbalized emotions and memories, Bákayan makes use of his South-Eastern roots to create a sound entirely of his own.

He quickly found himself integrating his vocals, as well as acoustic elements with electronic productions.
