Rostam - Cooking with Rostam and His Mom Najmieh Batmanglij
Rostam Batmanglij gained fame as part of Vampire Weekend, but as his ‘Half-Light’ solo album illustrates, he has plenty to say on his own. A son of Iranian immigrants, he met his VW buds while studying at NYC’s Columbia University. We thought it would be fun to explain a part of his life fans seldom see, so Vevo’s Kim Taylor Bennett connected with him and his mom Najmieh, an award-winning cookbook author, for a little cooking lesson. In the mood for green salmon and kuku? Learn about Rostam's music and his chef skills.

Rostam: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert
The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Music's Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It's the same spirit — stripped-down sets, an intimate setting — just a different space.
Robin Hilton | June 8, 2021
My great-grandmother always used to say, "Life is a train. People get on. People get off." And it just keeps going. Watching Rostam's Tiny Desk performance, it's easy to imagine you're on that life-train, traveling around and around, catching glimpses of instruments and faces as they pass by, before coming back where you started. It's a clever, if sometimes dizzying nod to the overarching themes of Rostam's Changephobia, a collection of songs that simultaneously look to the past and the future.

Lyrics:
I had a dream that you were mine
I’ve had that dream a thousand times
A thousand times, a thousand times
I’ve had that dream a thousand times
I left my room, on the west side
I walked from noon, until the night
I changed my crowd, I ditched my tie
I watched the sparks, fly off the fire
I found your house, I didn’t even try
They’d closed the shutters , they’d pulled the blinds
My eyes were red, the streets were bright
Those ancient years, were black and white
The 10th of November, the Years almost over
If I had your number,...

Full video available exclusively on https://mwtm.org/3Xn1E2A
Watch Clairo and Rostam deconstruct the inspired production behind Clairo’s indie-pop hit, ‘Bags’.
Surrounded by sunlight in Rostam’s studio in Los Angeles, the two musicians look back on their experiences working together on Clairo’s genre-bending debut album, Immunity. Their creative chemistry is present throughout the series, as they unpack the original ProTools session for the album’s alt-pop single. Together they zoom in on the distinct vocal and instrumental performances delivered by Clairo during the demo process, as well as some of the outlandish production techniques used by Rostam to elevate the song’s simple structure.
The series does not only cover the technical details - it also ventures into some of the more complex psychological aspects of record-making. As they trade stories from the recording process, the duo riff on the importance of building confidence and trust in the studio, and the value of trusting your instincts when the going gets tough.
It all comes to a close with a conversation about the finishing process. Clairo and Rostam discuss how they cherry-picked a team of mix engineers that inspire them, and how they distributed different songs to different engineers in order to create an album that is diverse, adventurous, and unique.

Lyrics:
You wake up late you feel your heart begin to work
and now you’re all dressed up of course
and hailing cabs out of your door
on 14th street I feel my head between my knees
and orange swimming through the trees
and orange swimming through the trees
where could I go what could I do put in the state
my lips and eyes give me away
and now there’s nothing I can say no
I’m pulled away I see another of myself
who’s found true love and happiness
to sit and smoke there on the chair for
two boys: one to kiss your neck and one to bring you breakfast, get you out of bed when
you’re sore from the night before from knocking at my door your head against the floor boards
two boys: one to love you sweetly one does so discreetly never will he meet me but
I’m sure that you'll catch your breath you’ll sleep into the day to wake up with sunlight across your room
before I leave I want to try to go back in time
to just that moment in my life where I should have spoke up but I lied
as I sat there with my jaw open and I smiled
he pulled his sweater off and tried to explain he’d all but given up on love
I’m pulled away I see another of myself who’s found true love and happiness
To sit and joke there on the chair
beside the bed I read this past week’s New Yorker
and I watch him paint Antarctica and watch him paint Antarctica
two boys: one to kiss your neck and one to bring you breakfast, get you out of bed when
you’re sore from the night before from knocking on my door your head against the floor boards
two boys one to love you sweetly one does so discreetly never will he meet me
but i''m sure that you'll catch your breath you’ll sleep into the day to wake up with sunlight across your room
telling me something or nothing
never the one thing I wanna hear
telling me something or nothing
never the one thing I wanna hear

you say you think we better stay up
late as we can

and in the back of a cab we sit closer
and i rest my head down on your shoulder
from the back of the cab to the airport
i am happy you and i got this hour
you say you think we could keep going
till the suns out
the thing is that i‘ve been here before and i dread the daylight
but in the back of a cab we sit closer
and i rest my head down on your shoulder
from the back of the cab to the airport

The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Music's Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It's the same spirit — stripped-down sets, an intimate setting — just a different space.
Robin Hilton | June 8, 2021
My great-grandmother always used to say, "Life is a train. People get on. People get off." And it just keeps going. Watching Rostam's Tiny Desk performance, it's easy to imagine you're on that life-train, traveling around and around, catching glimpses of instruments and faces as they pass by, before coming back where you started. It's a clever, if sometimes dizzying nod to the overarching themes of Rostam's Changephobia, a collection of songs that simultaneously look to the past and the future.
Rostam and a group of backing musicians play two cuts from that album: the relatively breezy, escapist ballad "4Runner" and the reflective "These Kids We Knew." The group closes with "In a River," a one-off single from 2018 that sits perfectly alongside the newer songs as he recalls a warm night skinny dipping with a friend.

Lyrics:
I had a dream that you were mine
I’ve had that dream a thousand times
A thousand times, a thousand times
I’ve had that dream a thousand times
I left my room, on the west side
I walked from noon, until the night
I changed my crowd, I ditched my tie
I watched the sparks, fly off the fire
I found your house, I didn’t even try
They’d closed the shutters , they’d pulled the blinds
My eyes were red, the streets were bright
Those ancient years, were black and white
The 10th of November, the Years almost over
If I had your number, I’d call you tomorrow
If my eyes were open, I’d be kicking the doors in
But all that I have is this old dream I’ve always had
A thousand times, a thousand times
I’ve had that dream a thousand times
A thousand times, a thousand times
I’ve had that dream a thousand times
I left my room, on the west side
I walked from noon, until the night
I changed my crowd, I ditched my tie
I watched the sparks, fly off the fire
I found your old house, I didn’t even try
They’d closed the shutters, they’d pulled the blinds
My eyes were red, the streets were bright
Those ancient years, were black and white
I had a dream that you were mine
I’ve had that dream a thousand times
But I don’t answer questions, I just keep on guessing
My eyes are still open, the curtains are closing
And all that I have is this old dream I must have had.
A thousand times, a thousand times
I’ve had that dream a thousand times
A thousand times, a thousand times
I’ve had that dream a thousand times
A thousand times, a thousand times
I’ve had that dream a thousand times
A thousand times, a thousand times
I’ve had that dream a thousand times
