Hermes Records

Hermes Records was formed in early 2000 to produce and promote modern Iranian Music, discover creative musicians and help artists approach new musical horizons. Lying on a great musical potential in Iran, Hermes Records tries to interpret different modalities and ambiences of Persian Music as well as enjoying interactions between the roots of occidental and oriental musical textures and harmonies.

Dialogue

Dialogue reflects Mehrdad's compositions for guitar since 1999. Playing the oud as well as learning the Persian musical repertoire, in combination with his Western Classical music education and experiences, helped him discover new horizons in compositions for guitar. Oud and duduk accompany the guitar in some of the pieces.

Clouds

Clouds are fragments of music emanating from the mind and body of musicians of three generations. They paint a horizon for their listeners. A gift, let's say for those who appreciate music under the vernal sky.
