Formed in 2014 by vocalist and guitarist Mürsel Oğulcan Ava , DKTT has always been known for their "mini-film" style music videos and deeply evocative lyrics. "Madem" (which translates to "Since" or "Given that") is a perfect example of this narrative approach.
If you’ve spent any time exploring the vibrant landscape of modern Turkish alternative rock, you’ve likely encountered the infectious energy of (DKTT). While their discography is packed with hits, few tracks capture their signature blend of rebellious spirit and romantic devotion quite like "Madem" .
: Central to the song is a weary but firm resistance to external pressure. The lyrics express exhaustion from hiding a partner from the "eyes of others" ( el âlemin gözünden ) and a final decision to stop caring about societal gossip.
: The chorus is a defiant declaration of happiness. With the recurring line "Kim ne derse desin, 'Bana ne' diyeceğim" (No matter what anyone says, I'll say 'I don't care'), the song becomes a celebratory anthem for anyone choosing love over public opinion. Sound and Versatility
