Arash Avin has been working on his third album for quite some time now, having released two albums previously. “Khalili Vaghte” is set to be released on the 15th of July, 2022, and will undoubtedly, be a great success if his previous albums are anything to go by.
Arash Avin is a contemporary Iranian singer, songwriter, dancer, actor, humanitarian, and painter. He is a rising star in not only Iran but also in the thriving music industries all over the world, particularly in Los Angeles, USA. Avin was born in Tehran, Iran, at a time when music and arts flourished under the creative freedom granted to the people. This developed his interest in music and the skills at a very young age and displayed advanced musical inclinations for his age. Later on, a nationwide revolution resulted in a ban on musical production and distribution.
When the ban on music was somewhat reduced by the government, Avin released one of the first post-revolution albums, “Do Saye”. This was a collaboration with the talented songwriter and composer Hamid Panahi. The album was more melodic in its composition and had a soft tempo. This was in accordance with the federal regulations set for any and all musical production. Even with the limited creative space, Avin was able to release a true masterpiece, which gained him both national and international acclaim and popularity. This also opened the way for Avin to finally be recognized for his genius and work on future projects of his choice.
“Safar”, Arash Avin’s second album, was released shortly after. This album had a more upbeat composition, a clear shift from Avin’s first album, “Do Saye. “Safar” was again a collaboration, this time with the acclaimed songwriter, composer, and arranger Behnam Abtahi. At the time the album was released, dancing in public was still forbidden, both socially and legally. This album was almost a rebellion against the strict restrictions while still staying within the legal bounds. The Album was a success through and through, receiving an enormous amount of praise and love from the locals. The Album scored high on various music charts In Iran, even becoming one of the top albums released that year in Iran.
If the previous albums are anything to go by, we are likely to see a more adventurous take on classical Persian music with “Khalili Vaghte”. Arash Avin can finally spread his wings and find his calling, establishing a strong and lasting footprint in the musical world.
Arash Avin’s third album, titled “Khalili Vaghte”, will address the universal themes of love and longing. Some of the most famous compositions and songs all around the world, in all cultures contain these themes. Persian music, in particular, has a penchant for addressing the yearning of the human heart and the woes given by unrequited love. Bordi az Yadam by Delkash and Vigen, Gharib e Ashena by Googoosh, and Jan e Maryam by Mohammad Noori are some of the popular masterpieces that resonate with all those lost in their Junoon, a calling for the weeping heart.
Arash Avin likes to express strong emotions in their true, naked form. He employs the use of colors, tunes, dances, and words to convey the desperation and yearning of feelings unsaid or unfulfilled. He is a master in his craft and his previous albums are proof of that.
As such, we can expect great things from his third album, “Khalil Vaghte”, which will be released on July 15th. It will undoubtedly be a masterpiece and will leave a lasting impression on all of Avin’s listeners.
