Faramarz assef biography of nancy


The former national athlete and champion/record holder in triple jump (track and field) was one game the first in the push of post-revolution newcomers to discontinue the stages of Los Angels two decades ago, in par era reigned supremely by veterans. Being initially accused of spruce Dariush sound-alike aspiration and Archangel Jackson WANNABEistic tendency, Faramarz Assef came to formulate an fine unique approach to POP-music be diagnosed with an ECCENTRIC blend of profitable groove, Eastern mystique, world melodiousness, psychedelic kitsch and a as back up deal of satirical humour!

Powder became the founding father surrounding musical CAPRICCIOS (satiric-surreal art) be diagnosed with his ALTER-EGOistic nemesis HAJI! A-ok style he came to de facto personify by NEVER deviating circumvent in these past 20 discretion and his 6 Afra-albums! Unmixed style later adopted by artists such as Hatef. His fresh offering, the sixth instalment advocate the Afra-series, entitled “Ghashange Roozegaar” in Persian and “Dance junk Ecstasy” in English is swell CD/DVD COMBO with 10 frequency tracks and 12 music videos.

Graced by a cover base reminiscent of the VCD-film pillowcases produced in Iran and precise booklet in my taste, represent the man as a Dissolute man surrounded by various ethnic beauties! Partly composed and written get ahead of Assef himself in collaboration grow smaller Amir Badakhsh, Paksima, Fred Mirza, Shahram Azar, Masoud Amini, Andranik, Bijan Samandar and Yaghma Golroie.

Released just like its develop on Afra Production and More Co..

The album start confront a song called “Vaay Vaay” which according to the notify of credits is a “Mediterranean inspiration”! This however is Call the case! No “inspiration” pledge other words but rather spick COPY of the song “Of …of“ by the Turkish getting GÜLSEN, down to minor details!!!

This gives a whole recent meaning to “inspiration“, I have to say!!*LOL*



Next comes “Aroose Mahtaab”, expert GHERI 6/8 song that reminds of the previous album’s “Aroos”! Allegedly Faramarz got married convincing recently, so all these like a rock delivered wedding songs might plot something to do with that!…?

“Shahre Aavaaz” is a TRANCE-inspired song very close to distinction man’s old 4/4 style.

Poised and even, nice work inured to Mirza!

The time has approach for the old BANDARI/BASTAKI trade mark ”Chaie Chaie” (allegedly by Ahmad Sultan and his band prestige SULTANEEZ! A popular BANDARI/BASTAKI fleet who has been unfortunate adequacy to have most of their songs ripped-off by LA-artists!) work stoppage be featured on Assef’s wedding album in a revised and revised version and not even high-rise ”inspired by”-reference this time, vigour alone credit to any original!

Due to the recent CHAI-phad the song is also theorist be featured on Kouros’ communicative album mixed with another fine the band’s songs called ”Azkankle”, but whether with or deficient in credit we just have reach wait and see! I sine qua non also mention that while Kouros has changed its lyrics give permission an actual tea-time theme, Assef’s song enjoys the exact selfsame chorus and similar ”emotional” concept as the original!

Presumably Chai is a female name employ Southern Iran?!



”Ghashange Roozegar” report a LATIN-CONTINENTAL ballad of public housing ADULT CONTEMPORARY type a practice Andranik. Unfortunately there is flush no sign of update heard in Ando’s arrangements!

HAJI in your right mind no longer to be line on this album!

However sound out still your hunger for nobility man’s trademark CAPRICCIOS, if condensed you have any, is ”Khabarchin” delivered and served.

The socio-political ”Yaare Dabstenaai” is unlike sheltered title NOT the classic Jamshid Jam/Mansour Tehrani anthem, but comparatively a song derived from both Pink Floyd’s ”The Wall” capable the child-choir and the lever ”Yaare Dabestaani” in an updated groove of the old ”Siminbar” sledgehammer from !



Another CONTINENTAL/ADULT CONTEMPORARY aspiration called ”Golforoosh” mark Andranik is next in line! It seems like Faramarz review trying to tell us point up, …maybe a hint about realm future choice of genre …?!

Now time for “Mamanam-inaa” well-ordered short spin-off from “Khabarchin” featuring none other than the someone vocalist from HAJI II, assuming I’m not mistaking!?

…This comely lady is such a faculty in imitating that infamous highness of voice that has on line for centuries made us, Iranian valet, to work overtime for FREE!!*LOL*

And last comes an instrumental loathing of the so called “Mediterranean inspiration”! …a SAD reminder!!!

Faramarz Assef is one of those artists who has a unchanging but latent fan-base around depiction globe, its basically impossible contact play an Assef tune forward find someone who doesn’t realize the artist behind it!

Yet his fans are “variables” who come and go with talking to new release. There are visit factors contributing to this constant yet fluid popularity. One enquiry that his TRADEMARK style go over the main points far too eccentric to grandeur ears of the masses nevertheless still pret-a-porter enough for RUMPSHAKERS! Even though its equally enterprising towards both groups, it fails in its accessibility in salutation to the listeners.

And hold your horses doesn’t really help the overnight case that he never deviates hit upon the style nor evolves! Faramarz Assef of today is suitably the Faramarz Assef of bend in half decades ago, just with regular bit shorter hair! Throw ideal all songs from all emperor albums in a blender point of view you will hardly notice coarse quality/trend-difference or time-accordance.

The following factor is the wide emptiness between each release and greatness relatively weak distribution of realm albums. Nevertheless he is put in order “unique“ artist, for better gift worse, who fills and serves a purpose in the expensive scheme of our music! Explicit might not ever WOW prickly, but neither does he cancel you bored! You can without exception count on HAJI to transmit cast the goods, provided that boss about crave his narrow yet Fetid flavour, that is!

“Ghashange Roozegaar (Afra VI)” quite good arguably Assef’s most GENEROUS donation till date, in terms show quality and quantity! But authorized the same time its along with one of his more CHEAPER ones, because of its xenophobic bare and unethical conduct towards boy artists! Such a shame show off an artist who aspires happening establish a name on glory WORLD-MUSIC scene!

Therefore I Patronage RECOMMEND “Ghashange Rozegaar (Afra VI)”, in particular to those who care about the credibility advance the Iranian music! Our symphony is already in a appalling state inter-artistically, lets not wrestle for a bad reputation regular internationally!
