ARASH "DASA BALA" (OFFICIAL VIDEO) FEAT. TIMBUKTU, AYLAR & YAG

Young Iranian director and editor Fred Khoshtinat made this superb Arash video featuring starlet turned singer, Aylar Lie, and rappers Timbuktu and Yag. Fred also edited the music video sections of Bahman Ghobadi's Cannes award winning film, "Nobody Knows About the Persian Cats". Fans of Iran's Hip Hop culture may already be familiar with Fred's direction and editing via Hichkas' "Ye Mosht Sarbaz" video, and Taham's "Ghamnaameh" video. "Dasa Bala" is slang for "put your hands in the air" and "Googooli" is slang for "cute" in Persian/Farsi .--Julie Jigsawnovich
