Changing the stereotype
Tigran Jager wants to change the stereotype of perception of music as a "background" music that has no semantic value. The listener needs to be guided through the melodic part to new, previously unknown and awakening rhythms of the Universe.

Audience of listeners - Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Armenia, Georgia, France, USA.
"In general, I am not an adherent of one genre and style, I want listeners to be able to memorize a melody, and not just background music, which is now extremely abundant, people are surrounded by sounds that are not always harmonious, risking drowning in a cacophony. I offer them music that will lead through the melodic part to new, previously unknown and awakening vibrations. Perhaps this is how a new genre will be born. "
