Available October 30th, 2026, this compilation pulls back the Iron Curtain to bring a bevy of physically unreleased music of Soviet-era Armenia. Songs that were exclusively broadcast on radio and television, stored on reel-to-reel tapes, and shelved in a government-owned vault alongside tens of thousands of various recordings by Armenian artists - all inaccessible to the public.

Fully licensed from Public Radio of Armenia, with additional clearance from all composers or their living descendants / estates: Yerevan Nights (Soviet Armenian City Pop 1986-1992) features 16 tracks remastered from the original reel-to-reel tapes by award–winning Osiris Studio, accompanied by liner notes containing historical analysis and a digital download card.

The sixteen songs on this compilation were recorded while generational shifts occurred on opposite sides of the Asian continent: the rising actions of both Japan's bubble economy and the Soviet Union's slow-burn downfall are historically pinpointed in 1985 and reached a paradigmatic climax by 1990. Consider the Armenian Soviet Socialist Republic, where the dichotomy is even more stark. Unpacking this chronology sufficiently would require volumes; the purpose of this compilation is rather to pose a question worth solving: how did these societies produce the same audible result from opposite socioeconomic spheres?
