Aria Rostami // Several Days From Now You Will Be Invited To Complete An Online Survey CD
- Availability:
This CD was released in January 2024 by Canadian ambient label Pyramid Blood in a limited edition of 1 copies by Aria Rostami, a multi-instrumentalist from the United States and New York who has released on labels such as Geographic North in the past.
Contains 11 uplifting IDM ~ ambient house songs. DL code included. It is a 6-page digipak specification.
The following is a commentary by the writer himself.
"A lot of things were completely unpredictable during this process. When we originally put out the record as a digital-only release, we never expected there would be a global pandemic in 2020. I never expected the day it would be re-released. I didn't know that I would become interested in photography until I picked up a film camera on a whim in April 2023. I didn't even have a particular interest in cars. No. Someone suggested I start with a simple image, so I took some abstract black and white photos of car hoods. So I started building a collection. I don't have a car so I walk around a lot. , cars are everywhere, so ubiquitous that they blend into the background noise of the rest of New York City, easy to avoid, easy to ignore, and at most a nuisance for running red lights.
Music has given me the ability to listen and be present in sound. Photography has given me the ability to observe the environment and appreciate light. These are not the reasons I got into either medium, and these developments were unexpected. I don't know what will happen next. I don't know what I'm going to do next with photography or what I'm going to explore next musically. I often feel like what I'm working on now will be the final version of my idea, but that's usually wrong. When a project ends, I always feel like I'm at the end of something. I'm looking forward to what lies ahead. "

Artist statement by Aria Rostami:
"So many things during this process were completely unpredictable. I did not expect the global pandemic in 2020 when I had originally put the record out as a digital only release. I did not predict that one day I would re-release it physically. I did not know that I would ever develop an interest in photography until I got a film camera on a whim in April of 2023. I did not have a particular interest in cars, really. I took an abstract photo of a car hood in black and white after someone suggested I start with simple images. So, I started to make a collection. I walk around a lot because I don't have a car but cars are everywhere. They are so ubiquitous that they blend in with the background noise of the rest of New York City. They are easy to avoid or ignore, and at best, an inconvenience while jaywalking.
Music gave me the ability to listen closely and to be present in sound. Photography has given me the gift of looking closely at an environment and appreciating light. These were not the reasons I got into either medium and these developments were unexpected. I do not know what to expect next. I do not know what I will do next with photography or what I will explore next musically. I often feel like whatever I am working on will be the final version of some idea I have and I am usually wrong. I always feel like I am at the end of some line when I finish a project and as time goes on it is easier to see it as a developing process. I am excited to see where this goes."
