Istanbul Hippodrome is a British electronica and darkwave music duo, crafting immersive soundscapes built on hypnotic beats, moody synths, and melody-driven guitar riffs. Their music blends the pulse of minimal techno, the atmosphere of darkwave, and the cinematic tension of modern electronic music—evoking a sound that is both nostalgic and forward-looking.

Influenced by seminal electronic acts like The Field, Orbital, Kraftwerk, and The Cure, Istanbul Hippodrome merges the deep textures of ambient techno with the emotional weight of post-punk and analog synths. The result is a distinctive take on indie electronic, where shadowy rhythms meet expansive sound design.

With a style reminiscent of the haunting ambiance of the Stranger Things soundtrack and the club-ready energy of Berlin’s underground, Istanbul Hippodrome is a rising name in the world of experimental electronica, darkwave, and ambient techno.
