"Ahooyeh Mahe Nohom": Hamed Nikpay, music by Ramin Behna, Lyrics by Amir Khosro Dehlavi
Born in Iran in 1977, Hamed Nikpay learned to sing at the age of seven, encouraged by his mother who loved Persian music and poetry. At nine, he studied Tar & Setar, under the tutorship of some of the masters of classical Persian music such as Hooshang Zareef, Zeydolah Tolouee, Attaolah Jangook, Farokh Mazharee, and Daryoush Pirniakan. By the time he was twenty; he could play five instruments expertly, adding Tanboor, Oud and Daf to his existing repertoire. His interest in classical Persian music coupled with his passion to write his own music, motivated him to learn fundamentals of music composition from such music Masters as Vartan Sahakian, and Farhad Fakhredeanee. He received top honors for improvisation for Setar and vocal in the All Iranian Students Music Festival held in Tehran in 2002...
Since his arrival in U.S., Hamed has performed in numerous concerts before enthusiastic audiences throughout the U.S. His mesmerizing voice has earned him the reputation of being "One of Iran's Best Young Vocalists" among both the American and the Iranian audiences [See 2006 CD "Solo Paasage"]. He currently resides in Palo Alto, northern California, where he teaches, writes and records music >>>HamedNikpay.com

What a pleasant surprise
by Kaveh F on Fri Sep 28, 2007 06:54 PM PDTI never heard of you before Hamed jan.
When I looked at the freeze frame of the clip, it was 11pm at night and way passed my bed time. I looked at it and thought to myself another California singer with the synthesizer. Then I said what the heck, let me listen and what a pleasant surprise. I love all music types especially Persian traditional. You made an instant fan and I can’t wait to get hold of rest of your work. Keep up the great work. Beautiful voice and music.

Better than perfect
by Jahanshah Javid on Thu Sep 27, 2007 02:42 PM PDTTwo years ago Babak Khiavchi emailed me and recommended Hamed's website. I discovered the email only a few days ago :o) Of course I have known Hamed for almost two years and every time I see him here in the San Francisco Bay Area, I beg him to send me some of his music files. But it's never happened. So I just went on YouTube and searched his name. This is the video I found. What an amazing song... It's too beautiful to call it perfect.
Hamed has a magical
by anonymousagain (not verified) on Thu Sep 27, 2007 02:37 PM PDTHamed has a magical voice.
It is really a joy to listen to him sing, and I'm eagerly waiting for his new album to be released.
Best of luck Hamed, in whatever you want to achieve.
Tremendous Talent
by AH (not verified) on Thu Sep 27, 2007 02:19 PM PDTI personally took classes from Hamed and he is truly a genuine and talented individual. He plays several different instruments beautifully and is a wonderful instructor. His voice is truly amazing. It is almost a spiritual experience when he sings to listen to the rich texture of his voice, so well trained and versatile, as if he has performed for many years beyond his true age.
He has been working very diligently on his new CD, performing both vocals and music alone, and I know that many of us are eagerly anticipating this. However, he has insisted that he wants to not run into the social stereotypes of the music world and wants to introduce himself as a unique talent in a genre of his own. Which he definitely is!
Continued success Hamed....you deserve it...

2-Mr.alireza,you have to listen to this song-eshghe soraat-from the kiosk which is one of the best with HAMED NIKPAY VOICE.And I think you don't have to compare him with this grup or anyother grups again;Because they have different method/style.

by alireza on Thu Sep 27, 2007 01:01 AM PDTwith all due respect I wish NOT to compare him to nice group like Kiosk, but he is not a copy of some foreign group and that is nice of him.
cheers,
A unique talent...
by Anonymous1 (not verified) on Thu Sep 27, 2007 12:18 AM PDTAs a musician and vocalist, Hamed Nikpay is an exceptionally unique artist whose entire heart obviously is beckoned when he sings, composes and plays his music. The fact that he is so true to himself and his art, rather than sarcrificing his artistic integrity for the sake of popularity, is immensely refreshing and promising. I believe there is absolutely no doubt this talented young man was born into this world with a special gift in which we are all very blessed to take part in as listeners.
A Talented Artist In Our Midst
by Nazy Kaviani on Wed Sep 26, 2007 08:40 PM PDTI have seen Hamed in performances before, and each time I am reminded of how fortunate we are to have such a talented artist in our midst. His voice is so sweet, and his music is so fresh, and he is such a nice and approachable guy, too. His use of more contemporary pieces of poetry is also very refreshing. I can't wait for his new album.
great voice
by messenger1352 (not verified) on Wed Sep 26, 2007 05:08 PM PDTcan't wait to hear a full album with vocals from this talented musician.

Nicely done!
