Editorial Review:
Album Description:
'Nine Heavens' features nine intricately carved original arrangements and compositions of traditional folk songs and mystical Sufi poems from Iran, the Indian sub-continent and Turkey. With a strong emphasis on composition, Niyaz centers on the deep interconnectedness between the music of Iran, India and Turkey, and delves further into the traditional melodies of these regions with outstanding performances by its core members as well as guest musicians of the highest caliber from these three traditions.
Nine Heavens has been released as a double disc set. One cd embodies the original concept of the band which is to bridge the gap between the traditional and modern by creating a finely-tuned balance of acoustic and electronic music.
The second will be a solely acoustic version of the album, which will feature a more organic approach with a stronger emphasis on traditional acoustic instrumentation with added percussion.

Rating:  - Nine heavens
I am a great admirer of Azam Ali, as a solo artist as well as her work with Vas. I always wanted to check out her latest project Niyaz but never got around to it until now. I recently was able to obtain a copy of Niyaz's new cd NINE HEAVENS. For the most part I do enjoy a lot of music that has a heavy middle eastern influence in the beats and melodies. To be perfectly honestly I found NINE HEAVENS repetitive. The opening track "Beni Beni" was pure monotonous. The droning got on my nerves which often ... Read More
Rating:  - Refreshing!
I got hooked on Azam Ali the same way I go hooked on Loreena McKennit - I heard the sound of her voice and immediately had to track down who it was. This of course led me to find her numerous projects.Azam has an unmistakeable voice and Niyaz is a fantastic mixture of her voice with the abilities of Loga Ramin Torkian.They are well complimented by the quality of production brought to the mix by Carmen Rizzo (Seal).
Turkish, Persian, and Indian influences abound on this album. Mix it ... Read More
Rating: - Solid Follow Up To Their Debut Album
As others have said this one is a bit deeper and richer and less electronic techno beat (though I greatly enjoyed the first album)
I especially liked the acoustic versions of the songs.
