Some of the earlier tunes from 2 years ago like "Genesis", "Legend" and "Storm" are just bonkers fun because they are so natural, and you can tell they are having a blast, there are no video retakes, if someone falls on their butt during the video shoot, it stays in the video. The girls' throat singing/screams are just amazing to Western ears.
Thank you for reaction. 👍 Otyken [O-tu-k`en] is definitely one of the best Russian "modern folk" bands. Their texts are in Khakass, Chulym, Dolgan and Russian languages. Word "Otyken" in Chulym and other Turkic languages means - "a sacred land where warriors would lay down their arms and talk". Altay (region in south Siberia) is the hypotethical ancestral home of all Turkic languages tribes (peoples). Ummet Ozcan is a Dutch DJ and record producer of Turkish origin. Otyken: Azyan - vocals; Ach - keyboard, throat singing; Kunchari (Kys from this year) - igil (two string cello); Otamay (Achanay from this year) - khomuz (two/three string guitar); Tsveta - vargan (aka mouth harp, jaw harp), drums, khomuz, vocals; Maya (Hara from this year) - drums; Hakaida - bass-drums; Aiko (Muna from this year) - bass guitar; Sandro - rattling, muttering, dancing.

Это точно, везде свой вонючий пятак засунут. Это была Россия и будет Россия. Сибирь всегда будет нашей землёй. Алтай- природная сила России! А эти всё никак не угомонят свои влажные фантазии, уже просто смешно))).
Both, Ummet Özcan and the band members of Otyken have Turkish roots, both belong to different Turkish tribes whose original homeland was central Asia/ Siberia, the area around the Altay mountains, so the song is about the Altay (or Altai) mountains. Over thousands of years, due to migration and the very large geographical areas, the different Turkish tribes grew apart from each other. Some of these tribes even migrated across the Bering Strait to North America thousands of years ago and are the ancestors of the indigenous tribes there. Although the various Turkish clans are widely distributed throughout Asia and Europe, they share the same original language in various dialects, same culture, instruments and mythology. According to Turkish mythology and history, the area around the Altay Mountains in Siberia was the original home of many Turkish tribes and "Otyken/Ötüken" was a specific place in that area which was (and still is) sacred to most of the Turkish tribes and clans. Ummet Özcan, who himself has Turkish roots, is a DJ from the Netherlands. He uses the throat singing technique here, which is very common among the Turkish and Mongolian peoples in Asia. Many instruments used here are also ancient and traditional.The second instrument Ozcan plays is the "dombra", also called ikili (iki means 2 in Turkish languages) because it has 2 strings. A further development of this is the Turkish Saz/Bağlama from Türkiye which has more strings (6 - 7). The mouth instrument looks modern, but the traditional version of it has existed for hundreds of years and is called "Gubuz". If I saw it correctly, there is also something like "Muhinhur" (an instrument with a horse's head and the strings made from the hair of the horse's mane) and "Kılkopuz", also called ikili, a kind of mixture of violin and double bass, the strings also made of horse hair. Otyken members sings about the Altay /Altai mountains so far I could understand (because I can hear her singing something like "dağlar" which means mountains or “al dağlar” which means red mountains in Turkish languages). There is also words that sounds like “stars” and there are bird sounds (like I mentioned, the dialect is very old) Özcan sings about ancient Turkish deities that Turkish folks believed in (before the emergence of the monotheistic religions) when they were still shamans. Here are the names of some of the goddesses and gods Özcan sings about: * Tengri = sky god. He is the creator of everything. Tengri was the main god of the Turkish pantheon who controlled the celestial sphere. * Kayra or Kaira = Supreme God of the Universe * Adaghan = mountain god. * Ülgen or Ulgen = God of goodness. * Mergen = God of wisdom. * Kyzaghan/Kızagan = god of war * Umay = goddess of fertility. She is also the goddess of virginity and therefore refers to women, mothers and children. * Kuara = God of Thunder * Kubai/Kübey = Goddess of birth and children. It protects women who give birth.She gives children soul. * Koyash/Kuyaş = Sun God. Koyash is the son of Sky Tengri and the Earth Goddess. * Ak Ana = (Ak means White) Goddess of Creation. She is the original creator goddess of the Turkish people. She is known as the goddess of water. * Ay Ata = God of the Moon. * Gun Ana/Gün Ana = Goddess of the Sun. * Yel Ana = Goddess of the Wind * Yer Ata = God of the Earth * Od Ata or Öd-Ögöd = God of time. In Turkish mythology, he is seen as the personification of time. Often seen with the Time Horse * Od Ana = Goddess of Fire. She is also called the goddess of marriage. By the way, the word 'Ana' for goddess is the same word for mother and also 'Ata' has many meanings like deity father or ancestor. Maybe the extreme veneration of parents and elders in Turkic Tradition is related to the fact that they were seen almost as deities in the tradition of shamanism
Вот чем Россия отличается от Америке вы всех индейцев убили,а русские их оставили в покое и тихо дали им русские имена и всячески им помогали адаптироватся не теряя своих корней
Agreed, I just recently found Otyken and Legend was the first song I heard. Instantly fell in love with their sound. Lead singer has a phenomenal voice. Not hard to look at either. 🤙
OTYKEN AND DIANA ANKUDINOVA! THE BEST FROM RUSSIA FOR ME! 🎉❤ Моя глупая мечта: Азян и Диана дуэтом какой нибудь этнический, первобытный, шаманский трек!!! 🤣👍🌹❤
They are from the Krasnoyarsk District in Siberia (which is owned by Russia). I've watched this group go from a small subscriber base to almost a million subscibed now. The musical style has changed significantly, but has remained focused on its cultural themes. Unusual, Unique and Unpredictable is how i describe them. Also prefer the early songs with Margarita (Taida), the previous lead singer and a different members lineup. This band has been a revolving door for its members of which 4 of these girls have left just recently. Also it should be mentioned that all these girls names are not their real names, they are stage names. The music is great, but I do have questions, especially with the so called "live" performances. Lots of backtracking. And at least several of the girls who left have voiced some issues that sound rather odd. Anyway if you want their most unusual, most powerful, even disturbing song to react to, then make it "Apocalypse" with previous singer. ( not the updated version called "Smoke". Thanks for the reaction and welcome to Siberia 👍👍
When I first discovered Otyken, I could not listen to anything else for a week. Otyken are a group from remote central Siberia. They are all members of small tribes (Chulym, Ket, Selkup, Tuvan, etc.) who speak historically related Turkic languages. There are just over 50 native speakers of the Chulym language left in the world. Like other tribes in the region, they were decimated by centuries of invasion and war, and more recently by the rampant environmental destruction starting in the Soviet era. They play authentic traditional instruments, made by the band-members and their families. The artists also sew their own costumes. These are based on traditional indigenous outfits, but incorporate attributes of several Siberian tribes at once. They want to be ambassadors for all of the indigenous people of the region. Their instruments include: ikili (a two-stringed bowed instrument used in Siberia, similar to the Mongolian morin khuur); khomys (jew’s harp, also known as “jaw harp”); rattles similar to maracas and tambourines; a local variant of the mandolin; and several kinds of drums, as well as modern electric bass guitar and electronic keyboard/synthesizer. They occasionally play a saxophone they found abandoned in the forest near one of their villages. My favorite description of their ikili is “You look like someone who no one should mess with because your instrument was made out of a freakin’ BEAST!” Otyken incorporate throat singing and chanting into their vocals, as well as imitating wild animal sounds and bird calls. When they were founded, they started off doing straight-up folk music. When they began to add a fusion of folk with modern rock sounds, they found themselves attracting fans from all over the world. They are fully aware that their language and culture are dying. Part of their purpose in performing and recording their music is to leave behind a record of their culture before it is gone. Their manager and producer is a Russian who is married to one of them and is dedicated to getting their story out to the world. They have also become a symbol and a rallying point for indigenous people all over the world who have suffered the same kind of fate-guests in their own land. To see them just on their own: "Phenomenon" ua-cam.com/video/nD1f1Ian0kA/v-deo.html To date, they have released tracks mainly in Chulym, but also in Khakass, a related tribal language, and one song in Russian, addressed to the people who took their land. As they say in “Paradise Lost”: “The land is yours now, but the sky is ours.” One of their most moving songs is a plea not to destroy the planet: “Chukotka” ua-cam.com/video/PENk6NBEyPs/v-deo.html
I just discovered your channel through this reaction and subscribed. I’d really love for you to react to an album by a Mexican pop star named DANNA her latest album is called "CHILDSTAR" and it’s amazing. I’d love to see your reaction! ❤ please
"Playing with traditional instruments" ? One of them is playing a Berimbau, that is a traditional Brazilian instrument usualy used in the pratice of Capoeira, a Brazilian martial art created ny black people when they were slaves.
Мужик поёт и ведёт свой народ, а девушки подпевают ему, и идут за ним, зная что это их дорога к процветании их маленького (их осталось только 47 человек в Мире говоряших на этом языке), но сильного народа.
на самом деле 47 только говорящих на чулымском диалекте но на самом деле группа состоит из большего числа народностей красноярского края и сибири в целом :)
Guys, This video is not related anywhere close to Russia.ALTAY is part of Siberia but is the birthplace of all Turks and Turkic culture. All about Turkic in this video. Please some research
Otyken is a Russian Siberian indigenous music group ... The Altai proper lie in the Altay republic of Asian Russia, in extreme eastern Kazakhstan.. I don't have to do my research I lived there
Amazing collaboration. Love OTYKEN!
Some of the earlier tunes from 2 years ago like "Genesis", "Legend" and "Storm" are just bonkers fun because they are so natural, and you can tell they are having a blast, there are no video retakes, if someone falls on their butt during the video shoot, it stays in the video. The girls' throat singing/screams are just amazing to Western ears.
Thank you for reaction. 👍

Holy crap y'all I'm STOKED! Thanks a ton for taking my suggestion!
"Altay" is a very captivating piece of music, captivating performance. Glad you watched it.
Алтай - это Россия!
