Iranian progressive house duo HAFT have long been known for crafting music that sits at the crossroads of deep culture and the dance floor. Now, alongside renowned 3D calligraphy artist Peyman Shaafi, they deliver ‘Black Ghost’, a hypnotic piece that forms part of the forthcoming ‘Eventura’ EP on the legendary Yoshitoshi imprint.
‘Eventura’ is a three-track collection born from a shared cultural thread. HAFT and Peyman Shaafi draw on their Iranian heritage, a connection that resonates deeply within Yoshitoshi’s own history, to craft something that feels both personal and universally compelling. The duo’s hallmark blend of hypnotic grooves, melodic depth and atmospheric texture finds a natural partner in Peyman Shaafi’s artistic sensibility, resulting in a release that is as evocative as it is dancefloor-ready.
HAFT have steadily built a devoted following through their distinctive approach to progressive and organic house music. Their productions carry genuine emotional weight, rooted in percussive rhythms and deep cultural influences that set them apart in a crowded field. Collaborating with Peyman Shaafi, a celebrated figure in the world of 3D calligraphy and visual arts, adds another dimension to this project that goes well beyond the music alone.
Yoshitoshi, the iconic Washington D.C.-born label founded by Sharam back in 1994, has been enjoying a well-deserved resurgence in recent years. With a catalogue steeped in soulful, hypnotic house music, the label continues to attract artists who understand the essence of what it stands for. ‘Eventura’ is a natural fit for that legacy.
‘Black Ghost’ itself is a brooding, immersive listen. It builds with quiet intensity, layering textured synths and rhythmic drive into something that rewards both careful listening and a proper sound system. It is a fitting introduction to what the full EP has to offer.
You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Black Ghost’ exclusively on When We Dip Radio. Enjoy!
