Mystic AM

The debut album from Mystic AM, a new project from Rod Modell (Deepchord) and label founder Ario Farahani. Conceived as an immersive fictional soundtrack piece, the release tells the story of a traveller, some centuries ago, and the rather intense metaphysical experience he unexpectedly stumbles into whilst taking shelter on a hot desert night at Zein-o-Din Caravanserai, near Yazd in Persia. Utilising an extensive collection of old Iranian records as source material, the album is an intoxicating mise-en-scene of whispering melodies, undulating rhythms, and atmospheric sound details.
