Emin Yasin Vural (born November 17, 1984, Ankara), best known by his stage names Hey! Douglas or VEYasin, is a Istanbul-based DJ and sound artist.[1][2][3][4][5]
VEYasin produced his first album at 18 and has produced many more inside and outside Turkey.[6] In this project he recreates and remixes 1970s psychedelic, funk and soul songs from Anatolia and other Turkish regions.
