We anxiously press play to dive into the sublime waves that the album “ Season of Amnesia ” by Parjam Parsi will bring in 14 tracks, based on a short story written by the artist, describing a conversation between two men, one of which turns into a mirror and the other another wants to end his own life.
A meditative moment will form with these songs, for us to put our thoughts in place, understanding and perhaps recognizing the things we leave behind, memories, places… emotions.
Majestically, the fragments of the mind begin to come together in the great frame of sound, guided by the piano and company, to rehearse yearnings and explore textures that oscillate between the light and darkness of the soul.
Outstanding portraits, even without the use of words, manage to impress the emotions felt by the protagonists, reflecting in the colors of our own existence, like a mirrored room that shows the faces of the soul, instead of the physical appearance.
Drawn with care, the plot begins with the mastery and lights in “ Years or Days ”, trailing thoughts and details in “As It Once Was”, “Something Over Our Silence”, “Five Letters”, “A Circling of the Clocks” , “Roadways, Doorways”, “Farewell”, “The Bridges”, until expanding in the preparation of “A Sense of Reconnection” and showing its resolution in the flow of “Here or There”, “Undefined Moment”, “Sow Covered Mountain", "Dod" and "Which Path To Take" .
“Season of Amnesia” a tale about the understandings of the soul, with a gentle instrumental touch in the heart.
