The Sound of Persian Neo-Traditional

“The Sound of Persian Neo-Traditional” blends the textures of classical Persian instrumentation with contemporary forms and cinematic influences. This playlist highlights artists who are reimagining traditional sounds through collaboration and subtle experimentation—track selections like Hooshyar Khayam and Milad Mohammadi’s “In Road” and Yasamin Shahhosseini’s “First Gāh” bring the tar and setar into dialogue with minimalist piano and ambient space, while Peyman Yazdanian and Mohammadreza Aligholi offer emotive, filmic compositions that deepen the introspective atmosphere.

Many of the tracks lean into sparse or contemplative arrangements, like “The Original Past Memories 2” by Ali Samadpour or Negâr Boubân’s “Lullaby,” while others introduce subtle rhythmic complexity and regional influences, such as Pour-Afrigha by Saeid Shanbehzadeh or “Koli Dar Baad” by Sohrab Pournazeri. From solo kamancheh and santour interludes to layered ensemble pieces, the playlist draws a throughline between past and present without leaning too heavily into nostalgia or fusion. It's a patient, textural listen, emphasizing mood and craft over immediate hooks.
