In our music, silence does not want to abstain from utterance. On the contrary, it wants to render the intentional or imposed state of muteness on the way to universal consciousness and to sublime awareness. This music intends to create a space beyond silence (“Quieter than silence”), of the complete dissolution of speech. Speech that has been emptied of meaning in an ever noisier and aggressive world. A world where less than ever is being done to revive the human dignity trampled under never ending consumerism, wars, conflicts, nationalism and their consequences. This is an era where words and communication have lost their primary function. This project makes the symbolic journey of returning to nothingness, a tabula rasa of existence in order to invest sounds with a new creative power, worthy of dialogue. “Quieter than Silence” is rooted in Persian, Syrian and Sufi music cultures, applying various rhythmical and timbral elements throughout the process, which makes it a unique artistic repertoire hard to attribute it to particular geographical identity. The ongoing conflicts around the world and the current tragedy in Syria in particular, existential contemporary issues, mystic Sufi literature and poetry and the various musical traditions from around the globe are the main inspirations in this album and its new approach to composition, rhythm and melody. „Quieter than Silence” is a dedication to the wandering Syrians in distress and grief. It is a form of compassion and a protest against all the noise in the world.“ Video: Liri Alienor Chapelan To find out more of Roots Revival projects visit: https://www.facebook.com/Roots.Reviva… For more Info visit: https://www.roots-revival.com/quieter… You can find the album here: https://www.roots-revival.com/soft-copy Spotify: http://bit.ly/2rAel8d Amazon: http://a.co/glUIpdR Deezer: http://www.deezer.com/album/42570441 Google Play: https://goo.gl/qAyHPs Tidal: https://tidal.com/album/74742366 iTunes: http://apple.co/2s5rx8J مهدی امینیان: نی, سه تار و آواز محمد زعتری
