معين در اصفهان شهر هنرمندان به دنيا آمد. معين عاشق محل تولد خود ، اصفهان بود حتي زماني كه تهران بزرگترين مركز هنرمندان ايران شد باز هم در آن زمان در هتل شاه ابا برنامه اجرا ميكرد.



معين در سال 1982 بعد از به اجرا در آوردن آهنگ " يكي را دوست ميدارم " ايران را ترك كرد.

در حال حاضر معين 19 آلبوم به بيرون داده است، كه تمام آهنگ هاش در آلبومهاي مختلف هست به جز آهنگي به اسم " اي عاشق ايران" كه براي سال جديد و به همراهي " مرتضي ، اندي، كوروس وو ليلا فروهر اجرا شده است.



توجه: در يكي از مصاحبه ها معين اشاره كرد كه وقتي وارد لس آنجلس شد متوجه شده بود كه آهنگ " يكي را دوست ميدارم" توسط هديه اجرا شده. در صورتي كه اين همان آهنگي بود كه معين را سرشناس كرد. در ان زمان هديه بهترين ( و هنوز) يكي از بهترين خواننده هاي دنياي موسيقي ايران است. و نكته ي قابل توجه اينكه خيلي از مردم فكر ميكنن كه معين آهنگ هايده را اجرا كرده است.

Andy:

Miles Copeland, the maverick impresario behind the careers of such artists as Sting, the Police and the GO GOs, now puts his energy behind opening America to an exciting new musical force - ANDY, Persia's legendary music exile. Even though Andy's music is banned in his home country of Iran, his albums sell into the millions, though all are underground and bootlegged. 'And My Heart...' Andy's magical new album on Copeland's Mondo Melodia label is a blend of east and west. Somewhere between the mystery of an ancient civilization and music that dates back 5000 years and the youthful brashness of modern music Andy is making his own unique place in music history. He has created a new fusion of sounds that combine traditional Middle Eastern instruments with Western world's drums, bass, guitar and technology. His global sound embraces many exotic influences. Aside from his Persian-Armenian heritage, Andy combines lush Arabic melodies with African rhythms, which he spices with Indian and Spanish flamenco guitar licks, and European techno. Besides Farsi and Armenian, his two native languages, Andy sings in English and Spanish. On his new album, he sings in Urdu aided and abetted by the Indian star Najma. He also tries his hand with Arabic with the Lebanese superstar Ragheb Alane on the duet "Yallah Ya Shabab". Andy has become an international trailblazer forging a new musical path that redefines traditional musical borders. Andy plays to sold-out venues all over the United States, Europe, Canada, Australia, Russia and the Middle East. His touring schedule regularly includes locales rarely if ever performed in by American-based artists such as Uzbekistan, and cities Tashkent, Samarghand, and in the Middle East Dubai, amongst others. In the United States, he has played for the last three years to critical acclaim at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. In a gala ceremony at Universal Studios in 1994, he was named Persian Pop Male Singer of the Decade. For three years in a row, he has received the coveted Best Armenian International Singer, Best Armenian World Artist and Best Armenian World Album awards. At first glance, it's the dance music side of Andy that stands out. The driving high energy takes his listeners on a magic carpet ride. But even while his husky Bryan Adamish voice seems more West than East, his musical roots are positively Persian. As stated by US News and World Report: "One look at Andy Madadian and one's sure he must be on God's A-list. His body is pure Rodin, he has chiclet teeth and a jaw bone so sharp it could open a soup can." you simply can't take your eyes off him. From his early childhood in Teheran, his life has been a study in contrasts. His father built roads, yet the family had no car. They were beyond poor - nine people living in a small one-room house - but his mother's careful management kept food on the table and enabled his parents to put six children through school. Their house was filled with love, laughter, and most importantly for Andy, music. As Andy was beginning to explore his musical roots, his native land began to broil with turbulence. The Islamic Revolution under the new religious leadership brought civil war and Andy made the difficult decision to leave Iran. The revolution has made it impossible for Andy to perform in his native country because of the governmental ban on pop music. Anyone caught listening to his music there can be fined and jailed. Besides the profound respect Andy has for Persian poetry and traditional music, he developed an abiding love for contemporary Western music. His musical icons include the Beatles, Deep Purple, Ray Charles and the masters of jazz, but mostly it is his love and respect for Santana's chugging Afro-Latin rhythms that influenced him the most. And like Santana, Andy invited some of the world's famous musical artist to collaborate on his latest album. 'And My Heart...' is the result of this unique blending of rich talents. Soraya, Columbia's young singing superstar dueted with Andy on a romantic ballad 'Cerca Del Corazon' in Spanish; Steve Stevens known for his lightening quick finger licks on the guitar on Michael Jackson's Dirty Diana song, co-wrote and performed with Andy and Ragheb Alame on the Persian-Arabic song 'Yalla'. Andy also co-wrote and performed a love ballad in English called 'You're the Reason' with upcoming American artist Shani Rigsbee. Today, Andy is the living proof of the American dream. He credits Los Angeles, a city of contrasts that helped him forge his unique sound, and the musical mosaic that resulted has catapulted him to superstardom. Audiences can't get enough of this exciting combination: the poetic beauty of Persian music set against the vibrant backdrop of dance music. Andy's songs break every tradition and some taboos, but young and old alike, from Persian to non-Persians now pack his concerts and rush to buy his albums. Miles Copeland states: "I have always been interested in the exotic rhythms, melodies and instrumentation of middle Eastern music as I grew up in that region. But more exciting to me is how the traditional music has mutated by incorporating other influences, particularly Western, making something entirely new. Andy is at the forefront of this revolution." 'And My Heart...' is Andy's first US release on Miles Copeland's Mondo Melodia label/ARk21. And with it, the Prince of Persian of Persian music has arrived to conquer American Hearts. Andy's albums are available nationally in Virgin Megastores, Tower Records, Borders and Barnes and Noble.

Mansour:
طی دهه ی اخير ٬ منصور از يک خواننده ی گمنام به يک شخصيت

بين المللی تبديل شده است ٬ بطوری که فهرستی از بهترين آلبوم ها

های موسيقی را در کارنامه ی خود ثبت کرده است CD و

آلبوم "فراری" که ويژگي اصلی آن مفهوم مثبت ترانه ها و موسيقی ساده

و روان قطعات می باشد ٬ به عنوان پنجمين کار منصور با شرکت ترانه و

هشتمين کار منصور در مجموع است که احتمالا در اوايل سال 2005 ميلادی

به بازار خواهد آمد
هرچند منصور آثار خود را خارج از ايران ضبظ ميکند و فروش آثار در ايران

غير قانونی می باشد ٬ ولی وی در ايران نيز به عنوان يکی از مشهورترين

هنرمندان ايرانی مطرح است.

جدا از فروش ميليونی آثار منصور و استقبال کم نظيری که از کنسرت های

منصور در سراسر جهان ميشود ٬ موسيقی وی به بخشی جدا ناشدنی از

زندگی ايرانيها تبديل شده است.

آهنگ "ديوونه" ی منصور به طور ويژه ای در استاديوم های فوتبال

در ايران مشهور شده است ٬ هزاران فوتبال دوست ٬ هنگامی که اشتباهی

از يکی از بازيکنان يا داور سر ميزند ٬ با فرياد "ديوونه ٬ ديوونه" به طور

دسته جمعی اين آهنگ را ميخوانند.

و همچنين قطعاتی از برخی ديگر از آثار مشهور منصور مانند
فقط بخاطر تو" و "عزيز دلمی" هر از گاهی در فيلم های

ايرانی به گوش ميرسد.

منصور در تهران به دنيا آمد و سپس در سن 13 سالگی وارد خاک آمريکا شد.

وی در سنين نوجوانی هرگاه فرصتی می يافت در مدرسه و مهمانی ها

به خواندن میپرداخت.

منصور درمورد عشق و علاقه ی خود نسبت به موسيقی سنتی ايران

ميگويد : (( هنگاهی که جوانتر بودم هميشه تحت تاثير ملوديهای

سنتی ايران آواز ميخواندم. ))

پس از اتمام دوران دبيرستان منصور به عنوان همخوان روی صحنه

و در استوديوهای ضبط موسيقی به کار پرداخت. پس از گذشت مدتی

تا منصور با روند کار در استوديو ضبط موسيقی آشناتر شد ٬ يکی از

موسيقيدانانی را که از قبل با او سابقه ی همکاری داشت را به منظور

تنظيم آهنگها در پروژه شخصی خود به استخدام درآورد.

منصور ضبط اولين آلبوم خود را با سرمايه ی شخصی حاصل از درآمد
فروشگاه موبايل متعلق به خود ٬ در سال 1991 آغاز کرد.

منصور در اين باره ميگويد : (( من عاشق موسيقی هستم

اما در عين حال از هيجان حاصل از دنيای خريد و فروش

نيز لذت ميبرم. ))

پروژه ی منصور 3 سال برای کامل شدن طول کشيد زيرا منصور اصرار

داشت از بهترين امکانات و روش ها برای ضبط کارهايش استفاده کند

در اين مدت منصور تحت آموزش استادان آواز ٬ تکنيک آوازش را بهبود بخشيد.

اولين آلبوم منصور به نام August 1994 در سرانجام

"فرفره های بی باد" توسط شرکت کلتکس به بازار آمد.

منصور با چشيدن طعم موفقيت ٬ در عرض 4 سال 3 آلبوم ديگر نيز به بازار

داد : "تصوير آخر" ٬ "دريچه" و "قايق کاغذی".

همان طور که کم کم بر طرفداران منصور اضافه می شد ٬ يک فيلم ساز

مستقل ايرانی به نام "بابک شکريان" در سال 1999 از منصور برای بازی

در فيلم "آمريکای زيبا" دعوت کرد. بازی در اين فيلم هم زمان با ضبط

پنجمين آلبوم منصور بود ٬ اما با اين حال منصور اشتياق زيادی برای

تجربه ی بازيگری داشت.

تجربه ی کارهای مختلف باعث افزايش خلاقيت منصور شد ; درنتيجه

منصور در آلبوم "فقط بخاطر تو" اولين آهنگ خود را ساخت. منصو
در مورد احساساتی که باعث شد وی به آهنگ سازی بپردازد

ميگويد : (( قطعه ی خاصی از اين آلبوم بيان علاقه ی شخصی

من به موسيقی است ٬ آن چيزی که از بچگی در مورد موسيقی

در قلبم احساس ميکردم ٬ اگرچه ساختار اصلی موسيقی مرا

موسيقی پاپ تشکيل ميدهد ٬ اما به موسيقی سنتی ايران

نيز علاقه ی زيادی دارم. ))

وقتی آلبوم "فقط بخاطر تو" در March 2000 به بازار آمد ٬ منصور که

قسمت عمده ی سرمايه گذاری آلبوم را خودش انجام داده بود ٬ مضطرب

و نگران بود ; اما اين آلبوم خيلی سريع به بهترين اثر منصور تا آن زمان

تبديل شد که فروشی ميليونی داشت ( البته گزارش ها ی مربوط به فروش

اين آلبوم ٬ قابل اعتماد نيست زيرا در بسياری موارد تکثير

به صورت غير مجاز بوده )

آهنگ های اين آلبوم همراه با ويدئوها ی آن به عنوان يک موفقيت قابل

توجه ٬ پلی ميان ايرانيان داخل و خارج کشور ايجاد کرد.

آهنگ "فقط بخاطر تو" به عنوان وجه اشتراک تمام ايرانيها در سراسر دنيا

و احتمالا به محبوب ترين آهنگ ايرانی در طی 2 دهه ی اخير تبديل شد.

اين آهنگ در همه ی کلوپ های شبانه ٬ پارتی ها ٬ تلويزيون ها و

ايستگاههای راديويی شنيده ميشد.

در آن زمان "فقط بخاطر تو" آنقدر همه گير شد که تقريبا به عنوان يک

سرود ملی درآمد.

اما خود منصور اظهار دارد که گاهی آهنگهای مورد علاقه ی خودش مورد توجه

مردم قرار نميگيرد ; مانند آهنگ "انتظار" که منصور شخصا علاقه
خاصی به آن دارد.

ششمين آلبوم منصور به بازار آمد December 2001در

آلبوم "زندگی" که سومين همکاری منصور با شرکت ترانه بود.

که طرفداران منصور با ديدن قيافه ی جديد او در ويدئوهای آلبوم

زندگی ٬ شگفت زده شدند. منصور دراين باره

ميگويد : (( من موهايم را بلند کردم زيرا ميخواستم نسبت به

ويدئوهای قبلی ظاهر متفاوتی داشته باشم. من به همراه گروه

Arizona ٬ New Mexico ٬ Texas ٬ موسيقيی که با آنها کار ميکردم به

رفتيم Grand Canyon ٬ Monument Park و White Sands

تجربه ی بسيار خوبی بود که ))

در همين زمان فيلم "آمريکای زيبا" در چندين فستيوال فيلم در

به نمايش درآمد Berlin ٬ Marrakech ٬ Gothenburg و Los Angeles

و از طرف منتقدان مورد ستايش قرار گرفت و چند جايزه به خود تعلق داد ; اين

امر باعث شد منصور به شنونده های جديدی در سراسر دنيا معرفی شود.

هفتمين آلبوم منصور با نام "ديوونه" ٬ دو آهنگ محبوب November 2002 در

ديگر را از منصور معرفی کرد ; يکی "ديوونه" که نام آلبوم جديد او نيز بود

و ديگری "عزيز دلمی".

به تدريج طرفداران فارسی زبان جديدی از افغانستان ٬ تاجيکستان ٬ بحرين ٬

امارات ٬ قطر ٬ کويت و ترکيه نيز بر طرفداران قبلی منصور اضافه

شدند ; درنتيجه منصور به يکی از موفق ترين هنرمندان خاورميانه تبديل شد
زلزله ی ويران کننده ای در جنوب شرقی ايران December, 26, 2003 د
رخ داد که بيش از 26 هزار نفر کشته و 9 هزار نفر مجروح بر جای گذاشت.

اين زلزله ٬ يکی از مصيبت بارترين بلاهای طبيعی قرن بود. منصور به ياد

کسانی که در اين حادثه ی غم انگيز از دست رفتند ٬ ويدئوی جديدی برای

نوروز 2004 تهيه کرد به نام "عيدی ندارم". ابتدا قرار بود اين آهنگ فقط

در قالب يک ويدئو ارائه شود ٬ اما تقاضای طرفداران تا حدی بود که منصور

تصميم گرفت اين آهنگ را به آلبوم آينده ی خود اضافه کند.

به دنبال ارائه ی آلبوم "فراری" ٬ منصور اميدوار است که طرفداران خود را از

فرهنگ ها و زبان های مختلف افزايش دهد.

امروز منصور قسمتی از زندگی ميليون ها ايرانيست. به نظر ميرسد که

صدای منصور در هر خانه ای شنيده ميشود. در چنين روزگاری پيام

اميدبخش منصور از هر زمان ديگری مهم تر است.

منصور به اين حرف گاندی اعتقاد دارد : (( تو بايد همان تغييری

باشی که انتظار داری در جهان به وقوع بپيوندد. ))

منصور در حال حاضر در لس آنجلس زندگی ميکند ٬ اما بيشتر وقتش به

سفر در دور دنيا ميگذرد. گرچه منصور ديگر در ايران زندگی نميکند اما ايران

هميشه قسمتی از وجود اوست و هميشه با او خواهد بود.

Arian:
It was the wintertime of 1998 when Ali Pahlavan met Payam Salehi for the first time. Both of them were undergoing Military Service in the garrison. During this period, they came to know more about each other’s interest. Both of them wrote songs & lyrics, played guitar and sang songs.





It was also the time when they saw the start of Iranian Pop Music in Iran after Islamic Revolution. They thought what could be a better time than this and decided to have activities in this line but in a new style.



To institutionalize this form of music, they had founded a pop music band with the name “ARIAN BAND”. This band was the first of its kind in the country after the Islamic Revolution.

To start with, the band comprised of Iranian style Violin, Guitars, Two lead vocalists with two different tones and girls as back vocals. Besides, the lyrics composed were of special context with simple words designed to attract a wider spectrum of the society.





On this basis, the band started functioning with this combination: ALI PAHLAVAN (Lead Singer and Guitarist), PAYAM SALEHI (Lead Singer, Guitarist), SIAMAK KHAHANI (Violinist), MOHAMMADREZA GOLZAR (Guitarist), BORZOUYEH BADIHI (Percussion Player), SHARAREH FARNEJAD (Guitarist, Back Vocalist), SANAZ KASHMARI (Back Vocalist) and SAHAR KASHMARI (Back Vocalist).





In the beginning, it was decided that SHAHROUZ FARNEJAD (Sharareh’s Brother) would cooperate with them as a keyboard player but due to his pre-occupation,

NINEF AMIRKHAS (Assyrian Keyboard Player) was introduced by SIAMAK to replace him and the band started its practices with him. Due to lack of Drummer and Bassist in the band, they had to use the sequenced Rhythm on keyboard.



To develop performance capabilities, the band kept on practicing for a long time in this manner and decided to get official permits from the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance in order to stage a live performance.



After a while, the group got the authorization of the lyrics only but failed in getting the permission from the music council of the ministry.



In the mean time, with the help of his friends, Payam Salehi succeeded in arranging a concert in shopping festival of Qeshm Island (free zone) which takes place every year and for which permission of the central office is not required.



Finally, on 22 Nov. 1999, the band appeared and performed on the stage without any financial reward. The performance was so successful that those in charge of running the music of shopping festival after several days invited us to perform again, but this time, of course, with payment.



During this period, AMIR HOSSEIN MOSTEAD joined them as a Bass Guitarist.

The performance film was received by some Music Producers and one day two persons from Taraneh Sharghee Company came to the place where they practiced (the basement of Payam Salehi’s house) to watch their live performance. They were MOHSEN RAJABPOUR (Managing Director of Taraneh Sharghee and who is now the Manager of ARIAN BAND) and MOHAMMADREZA AHMADIAN (his ex-partner who is a musician).



After negotiations, a contract was finalized to prepare albums and concert performances.



By this time, ARIAN BAND with management of Taraneh Sharghee Company could pass the test of the Music Council of the Ministry and on April 1st, 2000 appeared at a stage in TEHRAN.



The recording of the first album of the band was completed and on Sep 10th, 2000 the album with the name “Sun Flower” was released.



For the first time, a poster of a mixed music band covered the walls of all Iranian music shops and the songs of this album were heard from every corner.

Arian opened up the market due to the courage and its new outlook and rapidly won top chart of pop music in Iran.






After ALIREZA TABATABAEI joined the band as Drummer, a drastic enhancement was made in live performance of the band.



The popularity of ARIAN with the second album, which was released in January 2002, was doubled and then ARIAN BAND performed more than 250 concerts in different cities of Iran namely Tehran, Kish, Qeshm, Bandarabbas, Qazvin, Salmanshahr, Kerman, Esfahan, Yazd and Rasht.



The range of success of the band crossed the borders of Iran. By this time Mohammadreza Ahmadian left Taraneh Sharghee Company and Mohammadreza Golzar who was so popular because of his features made an entry into the Cinema World and his activities in the band got reduced.



ARIAN performed it’s first overseas concert in Manama (Bahrain) and with its thereof success, performed a very successful Concert in Dubai (U.A.E).





After this event, Mohammadreza Golzar officially left the band in order to continue his activities in Cinema industry.



Following the success of the concerts in Tehran, Kish, London, Koln, Munich, Hamburg and particularly the Charity concert which took place in Berlin on the following day of the Bam Earthquake made the band as a subject of mass media and TV broadcasting. The report of this performance was broadcast from German news channels.



After that the Bass guitarist left Iran to continue his studies abroad and the official number of the band members got reduced to NINE.

In this way, ARIAN moved towards a new horizon to familiarize Iranian Pop Music overseas which was done by Arabic and Turkish musicians before for their own music.



In this process Arian prepared its new album, which is called TILL ETERNITY, and in order to be able to compete qualitatively with foreign rivals, they mastered their new album at one of the best mastering studios in UK with twenty times more expenses than the mastering costs in Iran. And they also released the CD with two video clips as gifts.



By developing this album, Arian band was nominated for the award of BBC radio 3 and this is the first appearance of Iranian Pop music as nominee for the world music awards.



Right now, this album is on top chart of Iranian Pop albums and was also distributed overseas by a Canadian Music Company, known

as GEMMY MUSIC RECORDS

In January 2005, ARIAN performed very successful concerts in Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal (Canada) and also Stockholm (Sweden).
