Arsam Babaei was born in Iran; He grew up in a musical family and started to learn music at the age of 3 using the Tombak drum. As his interest in Persian traditional music grew, he began to learn Iranian music and its traditional methods of musical technique. At 12 years old, he started to play Kamancheh string instruments professionally, and he mastered them to the point of achieving advanced skills of great masters such as 'Saba' and 'Khaleghi' methods. He spent some time with his family in England and then alone in 2008-2009. He lived and studied there at the Special Art and Media School (Abbeydale Grange School) in Sheffield. You will often hear him say that his time spent in England gave him significant experience in working with new technologies using media and electronic devices for music production. Back in Iran, he decided to invent a new instrument called the Kamalin, a hybrid instrument between the Kamancheh and the Violin. This new invention was admired successfully by the many great masters of music in Iran. He played in over 200 concerts and festivals in Iran and different countries with various bands and genres. In 2014, he was part of a great project called Zendegi Zibast in Poland in order to play in an international band and project. This collaboration with artists such as Marek Jakubowicz, Ania Sandowicz, and Anna Chong was an excellent opportunity for him and his career and gave Arsam great experience. At the moment he is living in Toronto, Canada, and looking for musicians or bands to collaborate with again.
About his inventory instrument:
The procedure of Evolution and improvement of Persian and Oriental instruments is a subject that has been mentioned in music history since Farabi's era, as some of the investigators and music scientists believe that adding another string to Kamancheh is not effectless from the Western pattern of itself which is Violin. And now, this innovation in constructing a new idea called "Kamalin" has been manifested by Arsam Babaei with the latest features (such as deleted skin, llable pickup mics and...). It is well known that the structural roots of this appellation are a merger of the Fidel Grind instruments that are known in the East and West. I hope this small invention starts the manufacture of new instruments again by dear producers with modern sound systems and new structures. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 2012
