Stéfan Németh Rarely does experimentation merge so seamlessly the analog with the digital. Tegh's textures at times clash and at times befriend Poursamadi's strings, creating a landscape as fragmented as the present, as nostalgic as the past, and as unitary as the future. The two musicians dialogue for a nexus without finding a resolution, but as they say, the journey is certainly more pivotal than the destination. Favorite track: Ijād ایجاد.

Thibaut Devigne Absolutely brilliant mix betzeen electronica and classical music. It is at time like the music for the end of the world. It also has passages where the classical and electronics are antagonising and others where they are in conjunction. Recommended to all those who like experimental and ambiant music

As Tegh, Shahin Entezami is one of my favourite Ambient/Noise music composer.
This album is a true masterpiece based on a stelar dialogue between Iranian violinist. Adel Poursamadi and Tegh,, and I can't recommend it enough.

Harsh Agarwal The intersection of Iranian traditional music and drone/noise/experimental electronics should go down in history as a key movement in experimental music. It is endlessly fascinating.

about

"An immensely evocative, richly cinematic series of soundscapes that walks the tightrope between Iranian traditional music and science fictional composition incorporating drone, noise and experimental electronics. A dizzyingly good and immensely suggestive record."
The Wire


"[Tegh & Adel Poursamadi] have created an incredible soundscape, merging the electronic with the acoustic, and a focus on Iranian traditional music."
Headphone Commute

Ima (ایما) is the first album resulting from a series of collaborations Tegh has initiated with other musicians from the acoustic world whose primary background is in classical music, exploring the possibilities of sonic world- building, and embodied imaginations through responding to each other’s sounds. For this first iteration, he has collaborated with Adel Poursamadi, a well-accomplished Iranian violinist. Ima (ایما) creates science-fictional soundscapes concerned with notions of post-human communication which were shaped through a sonic dialogue between Adel and Tegh in the electro- acoustic realm, with an intentional focus on Iranian traditional music.
