Opium Moon took home a Grammy in 2019 for their self-titled, critically acclaimed debut album of atmospheric, ancient-yet-contemporary instrumental music. The virtuosic quartet return this summer with NIGHT + DAY -- their new sophomore offering, a double studio album exploring the dramatic full dynamic range of their contrasts and range of their highly evocative soundscapes.
In its two song sequences, the album showcases both the band's artful conjuring of a languorous (seductive?) sensuality with the seven songs on NIGHT, and the electric dynamic, swirling alchemy that brings audiences to their feet at of their live concert performances on the six tracks comprising DAY.
Violinist and vocalist Lili Haydn says, "We love the magic of the slow, hypnotic seductiveness of our first album, but we also love to shred and make people dance, so we put all the lovemaking music on the NIGHT album and all the groovy, danceable songs on DAY. And on two songs we interpreted the same theme in both ways, illuminating our belief that perspective changes everything."
Opium Moon is a super-group of consummate, sought-after celebrated musicians/composers from Iran, Israel, Canada, and the U.S., whose love for each other’s passionate, innovative playing and the magic that ensues when they unite, brings them together to creates what their fans have called “world music from another world.” who come together to record and, in normal times, to perform their electrifying concerts. Their last live show was in Mumbai India for the TED stage, where they brought 7000 people to their feet, days before the world shut down due to COVID. It was during this forced reprieve that they conceived and produced this magnum cinematic opus which pushes the boundaries of genre, embodying their ethos of freedom, spirituality, and playfulness., that was possible took place in Mumbai, India, where they were flown for a TEDx performance immediately before the COVID pandemic closures in 2020, but all four have remained exceptionally productive during the months of seclusion and shutdown, working on this epic, cinematic new project together and even more.
The cinematic richness of Opium Moon’s music is born of all four musicians’ accomplished solo recording careers, as well as their prodigious composing and playing for film and TV. While the last 18 months halted all touring, the group forged ahead. In addition to co-producing the Opium Moon album, Haydn released and enjoyed the success of her sixth solo album earlier this year for Lakeshore Records, scored the music for two feature documentaries by Oscar-winning and -nominated directors (Strip Down, Rise Up for Netflix and Ruth: Justice Ginsberg in Her Own Words for Starz), as well as composing the music for Netflix's record-breaking hit Ginny & Georgia.
Bassist Itai Disraeli recorded and produced a new album with his jazz group Maetar, to be released next year. Founder of the music program at Los Angeles' prestigious Wildwood School, he designed a new online forum to continue teaching his young students during the lockdown. He also contributed additional music to Haydn's two documentary scoring projects and co-produced NIGHT + DAY with her and the band.
In addition to recording and co-producing the Opium Moon album this last year, Persian santoor maestro Hamid Saeidi created/produced a new TV talent show for the Persian diaspora (“Contestee”), and completed an album with his Hamid Saeidi Ensemble, scheduled for release this fall. Drummer and percussionist MB Gordy worked played on A-list records (ask MB if he’s allowed to say the titles) and blockbuster film/TV, for which he is known as a first call ubiquitous soloist, surviving the shutdown by various recording and teaching remotely. projects from his home studio and continued to teach his student musicians online.
Through many months, NIGHT + DAY slowly took shape, taking the band's Grammy-winning sound to a new plateaux.
Itai Disraeli sums it up the eventful journey that created Night + Day by saying, "We love to be deep and spiritual, and we love to dance and be physical -- but either way it is inspired by our complete presence and love in action. This work represents the best of us."
NIGHT + DAY will be out on August 27th, the band's first release through Six Degrees Music's partnership with InGrooves/Universal Music Group.
