…Siavash Amini is a self-taught musician in rock and metal music, who later studied music for his university degree in Tehran. He belongs to a generation of young Iranian music enthusiasts who possibly had nothing except a personal computer and a dreadful dial-up internet connection. Electronic musicians like him were lucky enough to witness the unexpected rise of a genre in its pure artistic form. Electronic music in Iran was essentially introduced as an elite genre, and it took quite a while for it to be incorporated into popular styles. Raised and shined in this scene, where there were a handful of serious annual electronic music festivals in the 2000s and 2010s, Amini followed his path to become an internationally recognized musician.
