Hey everyone! I put together a DJ mix exploring a rare historical and musical parallel between 1970s South Korea and Iran.

In 1977, Seoul and Tehran officially declared themselves sister cities (which is how Tehran Boulevard in Gangnam and Seoul Street in Tehran got their names). But beyond the diplomatic ties, young musicians in both capitals were navigating almost identical cultural moments in the 60s and 70s (rapid modernization, heavy censorship, and an influx of Western music) - (more context and description also available on the soundcloud)

The set is made of some of my favorite 70s Korean folk-rock/ t'ongit'a and trot classics from Lee Su Mi, Cho Yong-pil, Seo Yu-seok, Haebaragi, Park In-hui, Hong Min, and Kim Jung-ho, blended with pre-revolutionary Persian psych-pop icons like Simin Ghanem, Marjan, and Betti.

Hope you enjoy this and would love to hear your thoughts or similar track recommendations. probably gonna make the part 2 sometime soon

Enjoy!!

[Verse 1]

قدم زدن تو کوچه و خیابون،

نگاه به کفشامون، زیر بارون.

دنیا می‌خواد بگه چطور باشیم،

تو نقشایی که دوست نداریم جا شیم.

اما یه جرقه تو رگهامون هست،

یه دنیای پنهان، یه راهِ بن‌بست... که باز میشه!

هر ادمی خودش یه نقاشه،

تا طرحِ روحش روی زمین باشه.

[Chorus]

این آزادی فقط یه واژه و جا نیست،

یه آسمونِ بازه، مرز و بالا نیست.

یعنی تو پادشاهِ فکرت باشی،

از بندِ زنجیرای کهنه رها شی.

راهتو خودت انتخاب کنی، اسمِتو بگی،

یه بازیِ جدید بسازی واسه زندگی.

این مالِ روحه، مالِ حقیقتِ وجوده،

ساختنِ قدرتِ درون، جایی که ترسی نبوده.

[Verse 2]

یه فیلسوفی می‌گفت جاده آسون نیست،

دنبالِ گله رفتن کارِ بارون نیست.

باید بیدار بشی، قفس رو بشکنی،

رو صفحه خالی، حرفِ خودتو بزنی.

کپی نکن، واسه کسی خم نشو،

با خودت رفیق باش، از خودت کم نشو.

موزیکت، فکرت، خواب و رویات،

سازنده‌ی قشنگ‌ترینِ دنیات.

[Chorus]

این آزادی فقط یه واژه و جا نیست،

یه آسمونِ بازه، مرز و بالا نیست.

یعنی تو پادشاهِ فکرت باشی،

از بندِ زنجیرای کهنه رها شی.

راهتو خودت انتخاب کنی، اسمِتو بگی،

یه بازیِ جدید بسازی واسه زندگی.

این مالِ روحه، مالِ حقیقتِ وجوده،

ساختنِ قدرتِ درون، جایی که ترسی نبوده.

[Bridge]

اون‌ورِ مرزها یا تو همین شب‌ها،

قدرتِ تصمیم مالِ ماست، همین حالا.

زورِ اینو داری که تنها بایستی،

ثابت کنی که بنده کسی نیستی.

[Outro]

خودت باش.

قوی باش.

آهنگتو بساز.

I am new to Iranian music and I'm trying learn more and understand but it so different from the musical culture that I am familiar with for the culture that I come from (native English speaker). I came across "Dastgah Homayun with Tasnif" by Solmaz Badri

Can you explain the different sections of this performance? I understand that this is supposed to be a mournful introspective song. Is the beginning only vocalizations or does it have lyrics? If so what are lyrics about? I have not been able to find a translation. The "with Tasnif" section, those are lyrics correct? Also what are those lyrics about?

I would like to find more like this and this is where I've started but if anyone has any more recommendations that would be great.

I'm looking for the song used at the beginning of this documentary

Starts in the background as the narrator speaks and ends at 3:05

Hi there! Can you help me find the song that’s playing in the background of this video?

Thanks

Salam! Question for all the music lovers: I have become very intrigued by the music of Soheil Nafisi. I would love to be able to play his music, but I lack the skills to figure everything out by ear. Does anyone know if or can anyone find available tabs, tutorials or sheet music? Doesn't just have to be in English, can also be Persian websites. It's just that I'm having a hard time navigating that part of the internet. Thanks!

At around 21:10 of this BBC Shajarian documentary, Shajarian plays some music on a turntable. I would love to know what the song is.

Looking for this old song Hey guys , I heard this song a few years ago that had the lyrics ye joorayee Nazanin kheli mikhamet. The spoken version of it is this: https://youtu.be/Hr6TJ2Pn9ec?si=m-59wxDvtvrKrNUI. It was an upbeat and Dancy song with the exact lyrics. I've looked for this for a good few years and I would love to find it 😄 do you know it?

In deklamaro man Chand sal pish tooye ye ahange shado raghsi shenidam. Vali Esme ahango nemidoonam ya khanandasho. Kasi dige shenide in ahango? Mamnoon misham 😊

Listened to a nice rock song in Navahang, turned out the band is AI but lyrics and melody are human🤯. Song name is “Jaaye to eenjaa neest”.

Trying to find this farsi song. Here is the Instagram reel - appreciate your help.
