It's hard to place Duman under a single genre, as various influences can be heard throughout their albums -- but a grunge feel combined with Turkish folk themes could somewhat provide an initial clue. The band is a massive influence in the modern Turkish rock scene. Duman is comprised of three permanent members: Kaan Tangöze (vocals/guitars), Ari Barokas (bass), and Batuhan Mutlugil (guitars). The first roots of the band may be found in Mad Madam, which was a cover band with a set list full of songs from Seattle groups. Kaan Tangöze and Ari Barokas were together in Mad Madam until Tangöze flew to Seattle to earn a graduate degree. Upon returning to Turkiye with a handful of songs molded in the spirit of the Seattle scene, Tangöze formed Duman with Ari Barokas from his former group and Batuhan Mutlugil from another local cover band. After first deciding to work with session drummers, drummer Alen Konakoğlu took on this responsibility and the group released Eski Köprünün Altında in 1999.
