Harmony analysis
Yeni Türkü – Mamak Türküsü: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Fm and ends on Fm. Its chords belong to both Ab major and Fm, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
F minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = Db (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = Eb (natural-minor colour)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the F minor side because it both starts and finishes on Fm and Fm is heard 22 times against 4 for Ab. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Ab major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Analysis
The key pair is Ab major and its relative F minor (4 flats). 5 different chords appear 60 times in total; 4 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Bb acts as a secondary dominant, briefly pointing at another chord of the key.
Chord movement
- Bbm Fm Abii → vi Fmiv → iminor plagal ×14
- Eb Fm AbV → videceptive cadence FmVII → iAeolian arrival ×6
The move to watch is Bbm → Fm, heard 14 times. From the Fm side it is iv → i (minor plagal: deep and melancholic); from the Ab side it reads ii → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- Ab major pentatonic and F minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Ab – Bb – C – Eb – F): start from Ab for a brighter phrase, from F for a bluesier one.
- Over Fm, land on F, Ab, C — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Bb, land on Bb, D, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Bbm, land on Bb, Db, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
The first chord is Fm; the ear learns where home is within a second. The chords that keep coming back are Fm, Bb, Bbm, Eb; read them as vi–V/V–ii–V in Ab or i–IV–iv–VII in Fm. Bb adds a moment of surprise: secondary dominant V/V — leads to Eb. Keep an ear on Bbm → Fm (ii → vi in Ab, iv → i in Fm): minor plagal — deep and melancholic. Ending on Fm, the song seals Fm as home.
This analysis is generated from the song's chords by akorculuk's harmony engine using consistent rules. When you change key, the degrees stay the same; only the chord names change.
