Kourosh Yaghmai’s influence on music extends beyond his era, resonating with those who see art as a medium of cultural dialogue and innovation. His ability to navigate the intersections of tradition and modernity has not only redefined music but also created a blueprint for artists seeking to push boundaries. At the heart of Yaghmai’s artistry is a deep respect for culture. He masterfully incorporated poetry and traditional scales (dastgah) into his compositions, making his work deeply rooted identity. At the same time, his use of electric guitars, synthesizers, and Western rhythms reflected the global influences shaping his music. This fusion allowed Yaghmai to create songs that are both distinctly and universally accessible.
