Ze Del

Sol Selectas welcomes Soberboy to the family, in collaboration with Medusa Odyssey, a Spanish duo that has released a few times with us in the past, and are also known as the sound behind legendary Bahramji’s live performances. With mutual respect for each other’s work over the years, a collaboration was inevitable, and once the ideas were communicated, these 2 beautiful tracks naturally flowed form the studio.  Both tracks have an organic feel, but with a club focused edge, tastefully utilizing flute and synths, with electric santoor, and driving percussion sounds. They describe their project with passion: 

“Music is an asset that needs to be protected with human energy, therefore we focus on keeping souls alive through our sounds and we put this in our EP.” 

The Ep is dedicated to the brave Persian community, as both songs feature vocals in Farsi, and are inspired by Persian poetry. 

“Can’t Sleep” is translated from a verse of the famous Hafez, while “Ze Del” literally means “from the heart” in Farsi. The artists want to express that everything they put into their music has to come from the heart, otherwise it’s empty. We agree with that sentiment. 

The artwork by HELIA JAMALI, portrays the feelings of the heart, adorned in ancient Persian tiles and the iconic lion symbol.
