Ali Doğan Gönültaş represents and presents a collage of different cultures around his birthplace Kiğı', both in terms of instruments and with his approach to musical forms that have been used from the past. The work conveys thematic content and style such as the traditional Kurdish dance govend sprinkled with unabashed lamentation, labor songs and prayers.

All songs are traditionals, all arrangements by Ali Doğan Gönültaş

Ali Doğan Gönültaş was born in Kiğı, Eastern Anatolia, Turkey. Ali started his professional music career with the band Ze Tijê, of which he is one of the founders and author of many of the compositions and arrangements, as well as performer of several instruments and the lead singer.

Since 2018, he has been continuing his music production with his solo concerts, in which the musician includes songs in Kurmanci and Turkish as well as Zazaki, his mother tongue. In addition, his oral history and field research studies, which he began in 2007, continue with the album Kiğı, which he self-produced and released in 2022. Kiğı, which is also the birthplace of Ali, describes the specific musical language and style of an Anatolian/Mesopotamian settlement.
