MosJan Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 Saturday, April 22, 2006 HAYQ (a.k.a. LAO) I know the subject of pirated cds has come up on this site before, and as a music composer/producer myself it naturally upsets me as well, but what recently happened is even more frustrating. A couple of years ago I met a couple of young local Armenians, brothers, who rap in Armenian. We met up on many occasions brainstorming on ideas, but nothing came about until this past winter. They created a commercial style hip hop group, sort of like an Armenian "Black-Eyed Peas", called HAYQ. The group consists of the brothers - Narek & Felix and songwriter Hayk ... all rapping, African-Armenian dark-skinned Hrant on male vocals (who already has a couple of albums released with his sister), and Syuzi, a cute female vocalist. They've written quite a few songs already, but one song called Qami Pchi caught my attention, and so they asked me to produce it for them. (My first Armenian song production.) The song is a mixture of rap and vocal (with some hints of Armenian and Mid Eastern vocal melodies), and on the verge of rabiz, but still very pop. We recorded the vocals, I also ended up changing some of the lyrics and melodies, arranged it, mixed it, and recorded the final mix at my studio. I handed over the master copy right before I left for Canada, and they started pushing the track, performing in a few clubs here and there, yet without radio play, no video to promote the song, and no album which anyone could find the song on in stores. What happens next? The song is stolen from God knows where, and put on a compilation called "Tuyn Havakatsu 2006" (Poison Collection 2006). And as if that's not bad enough, the song is out as being performed by Hay Tgheq featuring Sirusho. (For those of you who don't know who Hay Tgheq is, they are the most popular local rap group.) So the group, HAYQ, barely has money, but they are working on a video now (which they are directing themselves, and being shot by Hrach Qeshishyan's cameraman) and it should be out soon. Apparently the song is already a huge hit. According to friends of mine and the guys themselves, the pirated song is selling like mad, and you can hear the song being played in shops and cars all over Yerevan. I'll be back home soon, and will help promote the song like mad, make it the 2006 summer hit of the country, work on a follow-up, and in the meantime find the _sses that stole the song and call the cops on them. LOL! As if that would change anything. posted by Der Hova at 5:15 AM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zartonk Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 (edited) What do we think? vay mez Someone send a memo to these "apehs" saying that including a couple of black guys in your videos doesn't mean you're hard stuff... EDIT: Nevermind, they are singing in Armenian: thats hardcore! Edited May 30, 2006 by Zartonk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud EXPAT Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Zartonk "including a couple of black guys in your videos doesn't mean you're hard stuff... " whats that supposed to mean exactly? There's only one black guy who is a guy who's already recorded 2 albums of Armenian folk songs and has been raised in Armenia all his life. I doubt he was thrown into the group to look 'hard stuff'. The producer is a good friend of mine and I'm proud of the work these guys did. It's about time someone in Armenia created something new. I hope they continue.

HayZenk Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 I like the video, it's pretty good. I'd really like to see them one day doing a hip-hop version of a patriotic song and a video, now that would be really good. As for Hrant and Gayane they are just awesome, and to me they are Armenians! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MosJan Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 Wednesday, June 07, 2006 Download Qami Pchi I'm glad to announce the official release of "the" song on the internet. It's available for downloading on the newest Armenian showbiz portal Starmenia. HAYQ's Qami Pchi can be downloaded at this site www.starmenia.eu/hayq This is the first official legal release of the song, and unlike the pirated versions that have been spreading around, this is not a low quality mp3 release. It's a high quality file (192kbps) WITH the extended "zurna" bit. All profits will go towards the HAYQ project, which the group and I are very dedicated to continue. We look forward to every fan's support :-) OK it is them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mica Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 heey..nope...I'm noone's producer, and I'm not jealeaus at all!!!.... I just think that video and that band have that "QYARTU/RABIS" style which me and many others hate!!!.. I mean the style.Though I mostly listen to rock music, but I DO like other styles, pop/hip-hop/dance/national etc..e.g. I love Andre's song,I love Britney Spears, I like Harout Pambouckchian,Tata Simonian, Black Eyed Peas,Sirusho etc....but I do not like HAYQ's music and style, they tried to copy those shitty ones like 50 Cent... I'd like ppl to like music of higher quality... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stver Broadcasting Inc. Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 (edited) Hi Guys! I think this group is awesome, they have been at our Number 1 spot for 3 weeks and have been residing in the Top 10 for months. We have another song, by that group, called "Bari Luys" which has also been in the Top 10, but not like "Arants Inds Arants Kez/Kamin Pchi". BTW, where did they find that girl?!?

allarmeniangirl Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 I also think they're good and I don't think it makes them any less of Armenians if they chose to rap. I like the beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
