Mourners Project / Music Album

On a melancholic evening in a house in central Tehran, we performed an hour and fifteen minutes of improvisation with two synthesizers, the Korg Minilogue and the Korg Opsix. This album is the raw outcome of that session, only lightly edited, with some sections left behind.
Years of friendship and scattered musical experiments finally led us to perform “The Mourners Project” live. This sonic experiment carries unspoken words, and now we share it with you. Though we never initially intended to release an album and recorded this session with a simple home setup, the generous collaboration of our dear friend Delaram Raad helped us achieve a relatively polished mix and master.Still, as it’s a homemade project that includes melodic lines with low frequencies, listening on a high-quality sound system might better do it justice.

This is a continuous live session—no pauses, no overdubs. The tracks are merely cut from the whole. We invite you to experience it start to finish. “A shared journey through electric grief”
