You Are So Pretty - Take Care

Ribs - Take Care

One Day - Take Care

Oh no
I think it's happening again
Don't go
Bound to the tracks, I hear the train

Please stay
Just for another moment
These days
Your door is never open

Your voice
Sounds so sweet
And you look
Just like a dream

Your voice
Calls out to me
And you
Are where I wanna be

birth day please stay

Birth Day - Fight Club

My brain is trying to kill me

missing you

you feel like home

i hate myself over and over again

Give Me Your Hands

This piece is about recognition and maybe also a bit about loss, losing things in all different ways. Maybe you can give more description to this piece, what it does for you..... Hope you enjoy!

The title of this album my attempt at translating the Farsi phrase قارچ‌های غربت to English. It comes from the poem "The Sound of Water's Footsteps" by Iranian poet Sohrab Sepehri. 

A more literal translation of the phrase would be Mushrooms of "Ghurba", an originally Arabic word that has several meanings, including senses of estrangement, alienation, loneliness, being away for home, and longing.

I composed many of these pieces during and after Israel's 12 day war on Iran in the summer of 2025. Being  an Iranian living abroad for 15 years, I had never felt Ghurba the way I felt it this summer, as I realized more and more that Iranian lives matter to exactly no one.
Ghurba and all its meanings overshadow most of the pieces in this album. 

The music heard on this post is the final track, which is an improv piece with the same title as the album.

In the album art, I tried to depict a mycelial network creeping up the piano and my body, and expanding into the ground, maybe a thread or two reaching the other side of the world where home is.

As Sepehri's poem says "Who cares if sometimes the mushrooms of ghurba start to grow?" 

You are right Sohrab, nobody does...
