"Follow Your Dreams with all your Heart…" 

from album (LIFE) original release: 2018

mix and mastering by @amin-pishehvar 🙏

Reflection of Dreams

Oxymoron is a journey into vintage electronic dreams, recalling the golden age sound of experimental synth pioneers. Each track unfolds slowly, rich with breathing arpeggios, pulsing analog rhythms and beautiful, immersive textures. Classic hardware takes center stage - ARP 2600, EMS Synthi AKS, Korg Minipops 7, ARP Sequencer and RMI Harmonic Synthesizer - creating living soundscapes you can dive into. 15 epic pieces that blend 70s/80s nostalgia with vibrant analog life.

Neon Convexity Sincere

Gentle, airy vocal tones float under a moonlit sky, like a love mantra whispered in silence, blessing your heart and soothing old wounds. Perfect for night journaling and deep reflection.

7. Heart Lantern Just for You

Moonlit Love Mantra

I started playing around with digital music creation in my early twenties, but I have always been haunted by a quote from Theo Parrish who said that he is "not comfortable with convenience replacing artistry", meaning that you need to put effort into learning and mastering the skills in order to bring something good. I studied computer science and have a passion for logics and programming and somehow my lack of any musical background has kept me from publishing any of my works.

Many years later I got inspired by an interview with Thomas Fehlmann where he explained how the focus in his work is not on the result so much but on the process itself. How the process is a "source of expression" and something he just feels he has to do. This resonated with me and I realised that it's ok to be an autodidact in music and it's ok to make music just for the sake of making music. I make music for me and if you, dear listener, like it along the way I'm very happy about that.

I am inspired by nature, natural processes and the interaction we have with them. Organic asymmetric fractal patterns that are rooted in logic but unpredictable as they express. How a particular stormy night can affect the shape and growth of a plant for years to come.

I use Bitwig Studio to create my tracks.
