Azar – The mystery of Shapur’s cavern
Azar’s stunning and cinematic track “The Mystery Of Shapur’s Cavern” is inspired by a story about a pre-Islam Persian king from a book they read as a child. It takes you back in time through an immersive audio experience, with gritty synths and different melodic lines. Perfectly portraying the feeling of mystery and anticipation, the track is equally gripping, bewitching and thrilling.
Growing up in Iran, Azar began their journey in music by playing the guitar, which introduced them to the world of traditional Persian instruments and Middle-Eastern classical music. Since then, they have composed for adverts, short films, games and library music.
Now based in the UK, Azar has a collection of enchanting music ranging from peaceful atmospheric tracks to melodic ballads. The contrast between each song is a testament to their creative skills as well as their educational background, consisting of a Masters Degree in music. It is clear that Azar has a real passion for world music and integrates it seamlessly into their work, a real masterclass for film and TV composers around the world.
