IMI’s sound is known for its unusual harmonies and layered rhythms, weaving the old with the new in a daring combination of traditional music, nostalgic anthems, deep basslines, wild percussion, and modern sound elements—all wrapped into timeless grooves. If you listen closely, his sets whisper secrets of the universe while taking you not only on a crossing, but on a journey through the seven seas of sound. Born in Tehran, based in Vancouver, and raised by the world, IMI draws from many inspirations, and tends to paint a sonic narrative that drifts from ancient echoes into modern soundscapes. Western influences and his Middle Eastern roots come together within the world of electronic music to blur the lines between organic and synthetic expressions of sound—with tranquil beats and melodies that guide wanderers, seekers, and dreamers to a far away sanctuary of sound, where he has found his musical home. Music for him is an opportunity to stand up for a diverse and open world—one in which the heart is the compass, and frequencies rise from shadows into twilight, to collide, coexist, and connect through rhythm. So the message of his music is one of love, courage, and inclusion, and that it is in the darkest times that one can see the brightest stars ✨
