It’s rare to find a musician who successfully transcends musical borders and genres, Amin Homaei the Iranian-German singer, composer, pianist, and producer plays multiple instruments, including the piano. By exploring his own creativity by trial and error, he has created his own unique style that not only transcends genre but also borders themselves
Born in Iran, Amin was exposed to the traditional music of his country. He became interested in piano because his first instrument was the piano. At first, it took him a while to understand where the sound came from but then his two teachers taught the basics of piano. For him, the trial-and-error method was how he learned music, which still appears in his compositions. He was impacted by Iranian traditional music and the approach is visible in his work.

He started playing music when he was 18 years old. For a long time, he had been primarily working in his father’s factories, but in 2017, he left everything and pursued a career in composing music.
