Hours of Persian Lofi Jazz (Shab-e Yalda)

Опис:

Welcome to the We Are Jazz Shabe Yalda Special. Tonight, we celebrate Shab-e Yalda (Yalda Night), an ancient Persian festival marking the arrival of winter and the longest night of the year. We have curated a journey of Persian Lofi Jazz beats mixed with the spirit of Hafez poetry. What is Shab-e Yalda? (For our Global Audience) Yalda is one of the most ancient traditions in the world, dating back thousands of years to the worship of Mithra (the sun god). It marks the Winter Solstice—the precise moment when the days begin to get longer again. The Meaning: It symbolizes the victory of Light over Darkness and Good over Evil. The Red Fruits: We eat pomegranates (Anar) and watermelon to symbolize the "glow of life" and the rising sun. Hafez: No Yalda is complete without the Divan of Hafez. Elders open the book of the great mystic poet to read fortunes (Fal-e Hafez) and seek guidance for the year ahead. 00:00 welcome to the longest night 03:11 pomegranate stains (on my heart) 06:42 winter depression has entered the chat 10:17 asking hafez about you 14:21 grandma's house (in my memory) 17:40 pistachios & problems 21:38 seat saved for a ghost 24:53 red watermelons, cold hands 27:54 hiding under the korsi 30:57 waiting for a text (it's yalda) 34:11 1 minute feels like 1 hour 37:56 hafez knows i'm lying 41:55 the poem was about heartbreak 45:18 dissociating while eating anar 48:45 smiling but dying inside 51:43 midnight crisis 54:44 romanticizing the dark 57:58 cold toes, cold heart 01:01:03 celebrating alone (vibing) 01:04:14 pretending to listen to family 01:07:25 memories in 4k 01:10:33 my favorite mistake 01:13:41 sugar crash 01:17:06 3am philosophy 01:21:18 the sun is late 01:25:56 cheating at fal-e hafez 01:30:07 crying is festive 01:34:30 maybe next year 01:38:57 eyes heavy, heart heavy 01:44:07 silence is loud 01:47:29 static noise & poetry 01:51:14 overthinking the solstice 01:54:17 survived the night 01:57:53 frostbite & feelings 02:00:51 purple sky 02:03:44 seeing the light 02:06:17 victory of light (finally) 02:09:02 tea refills 02:12:07 the sun is back 02:14:38 goodbye darkness 02:17:58 hello lion The Vibe of This Mix: We blended the nostalgia of traditional Iranian melodies with the crackle of low-fidelity jazz. It is the sound of a snowy Tehran night, the smell of cardamom, and the comfort of old stories. © 2025 We Are Jazz. All rights reserved.
