The tracklist on the actual CD case is amazingly rife with typos, so I culled the above listing from Parseghian’s website. I tracked this CD down after hearing the first track, a remix by Hayko of Arman Hovhanissyan’s “Jeyran Bala” (spelled differently here), which I had heard a number of times on a couple of Armenian streaming-audio radio stations I listened to in 2011; the remix doesn’t have much of the original’s tone, but it compresses the vocal into a catchy and bouncy thumper of a track and adds a kaleidoscopic touch to the ends of the choruses which I quite like.

Unfortunately much of the rest of the CD isn’t as interesting, and I deleted a few tracks outright upon ripping a copy to my computer.
