Over the past decade, Siavash Amini’s compelling electronic music has quietly garnered praise from Pitchfork, The Guardian and AllMusic. From his home base in Tehran, Iran, Amini has collaborated with artists like Rafael Anton Irisarri and 9T Antiope, and regularly uses literature, film, mysticism, and medieval Iranian culture as musical launchpads. Amini’s new album, Eremos, illustrates a passage from Avicenna, the preeminent philosopher and physician of the Islamic Golden Age: one can move out of darkness, he writes, by confronting the darkness within. The results are - even for Amini - uniquely immersive, cinematic and moving: a landmark.
