So Long Ionia

by Banafsh

/

about

In the Persian language, Greece is referred to as "Unon," a Persianized version of Ionia. During my year of living alone in Greece, I underwent a profound personal transformation. I re-evaluated my principles, priorities, emotions, and way of life, emerging from this experience as a more mature individual than when I first arrived.

Now, as I prepare to return home at another significant juncture in my life, I find myself content and at ease with who I have become. In recent months, I've had the pleasure of reconnecting with Contemporary Electronic Music, thanks to my dear friend Mr. Ehsan Saboohi. Ehsan is not only an accomplished musician and composer but also a respected professor of music and the visionary behind Post Orientalism.

My rediscovery of Contemporary Electronic Music felt like returning to a long-lost home, and I'm immensely grateful to Mr. Soheil Soheili, known as Noise A Noise, who warmly embraced me in his tireless efforts and dedication in establishing his production company in Berlin.

With deep admiration and gratitude, I dedicate this track to these two remarkable souls and offer it as a belated Happy Birthday gift to Ehsan.
