Various Artists – Armenian White Label 12″

Description

The A side (Silk Road Side), features two previous exclusives from Darone’s compilation on Terrestrial Funk titled, ‘Silk Road: Journey of the Armenian Diaspora (1971 – 1982)’. The two edits on the A side were only available digitally, on CD, and Cassette formats.
A1 features an edit of Marten Yorgantz’s “Ammenain Serdov [De Tout Coeur]“ from NY-based DJ duo, Fundido. A2 features an edit of Jozeph Sefian’s “Karoun E Yegel” from Darone Sassounian.

The B Side (Lara Sarkissian Side), features two original tracks sampling duduk (Armenian woodwind), songs – named as Lezginka Dance Scene and Ojakhum Nightmare. The tracks are reworks of the originals from 2016 – 2017, when Sarkissian began the creation of her own unique process of synthesizing duduk as percussion, bass and voice. Both tracks have been used in her early live sets from 2017 – 2018.
