Love Amidst War is an arrangement of Hamidi’s composition first conceived in 2009. Since then it has been arranged for the 8-piece band, Sacred Balance and later for Pouya’s solo electronic project, Pouya’s Telescope. The work closely resembles an arch form where the music starts and ends the same way with a climactic middle section. It was initially inspired by the solo piano work of György Liget’s Musica Ricercata. The rhythmic ostinato is playing in a different rhythmic meter than the melody. Love Amidst War conveys the state where two feelings are felt at once in a dynamic flux of contradictory forces.

Moj is a duo music project by the Toronto composer and producer Pouya Hamidi and percussionist and multi-instrumentalist Adam Campbell. It is an exploration of Hamidi’s unique acoustic and electronic toolkit. The project moves through his knowledge and experience in film scoring, orchestral and operatic composition, sound recording, classical piano, traditional Persian music, “world” music, and electronic music. Synchronized lights accompany the duo’s live performance and make the experience visually and sonically integrated. Campbell recently joined the project, bringing his powerhouse acoustic kit drumming to the sounds. The music of Moj reflects the contemporary clash of organic with industrial.
