about

Flower Storm is a new multi-disciplinary project from the minds of Sepehr and Kasra V. By recontextualizing classic Iranian sounds and folklore with the contemporaneity of each artist's aural palettes they create a sharp-edged musical sword. Born from the desire for club culture to coexist with the deep roots of their motherland and nationalities, Flower Storm is a simultaneous deep dive into the history of their ancestors as well as a nod to underground electronic soundscapes.

Through collaboration Sepehr and Kasra V created an entire library of sounds together mixing traditional instruments such as the Daf, Tonbak and Santoor with sampled vocals and dialogues from films in Farsi and various styles of electronic music.


The name Flower Storm was taken from an animation by Surrealist painter Ali Akbar Sadeghi from 1972, while conceptually and visually, the project is heavily rooted in Iranian mythology and specifically Shahnameh by Abolqasem Ferdowsi as the track titles were taken from the English transition of the book.

Their debut EP entitled ‘Yek’ (translates to the number 1 in Farsi) is a fierce, four track collection of music alluding and akin to the mythical journeys of ancient stories like Shahnameh. Contemporary and classic sounds interlay and converse with each other in an explosive yet intimate manner, like flowers raining from the sky.
