Mark from Khruangbin's influences are a collection of multiple "world music" sources ranging from South East Asia, Thailand, Indonesian, African, Balearic, Ethiopian, Afghanistan, Jamaican, with a Hip Hop, R&B, and Soul foundation. With specifically a bit of debt to Khun Narin.
Though that's not to say that he is not also influenced by Turkish music. I just don't personally hear a lot of Turkish influences in their songwriting.
I will agree that with you that Altin Gun are getting to the core of Turkish Psychedelic rock. They are a brilliant little band that is bringing back the epitome of what is great about Turkish music. Super proud of this band.

Yeah I meant it more as a jumping off point, obviously Khruangbin has a lot more to their influences, and Anadolu rock isn't the primary. I'd just come across some a few nice tracks after discovering Altin Gun recently and the Khruangbin thread reminded me.
