From Chummy Studios, Hye Jams Radio presents, “Paisan and Friends,” brought to you by Haig’s Kabob House.
In the bustling city of Yerevan, where the streets echo with the melodies of duduks and the beats of modern pop, a young Italian DJ named Paisan was searching for the perfect rhythm to make his next track a hit. He had the lyrics, the melody, and the energy—but something was missing.
One evening, while hanging out with his grandmother, she chuckled and said, “Paisan jan, you make music like Zip, Zap, Zop!”
Confused, Paisan asked, “What does that mean?”
She smiled. “It’s the rhythm of life! ‘Zip’ is the excitement that pulls people in. ‘Zap’ is the energy that makes them dance. And ‘Zop’ is the smooth finish that keeps them coming back for more!”
Inspired, Paisan rushed to his studio and reworked his song with a pulsing “Zip” intro, a fiery “Zap” beat drop, and a “Zop” melody that tied it all together. When he released it, the song exploded across Armenia, becoming a hit overnight! Fans started calling it the “Zip Zap Zop” sound, and soon, every pop star in Yerevan wanted to capture the magic of the perfect three-beat formula.
And that’s how “Zip Zap Zop” became the secret ingredient of Armenian hit pop music! 🎵🔥
And true to form, Paisan has brought you some amazing New Jams from Ernest Ogannesyan, Artur Arakelyan, Arame and Hos Devrikyan.
Plus Hits you know and love from Big E, Krazie Bone, Tatul Avoyan, yellowheart., Jora Shahinyan, Armenchik, Lilu, Arpi Gabrielyan, Shprot, DJ Davo, Suro, Sammy Flash, Arman Hovhannisyan, Tata Simonyan, Lilit Hovhannisyan, Sargis Yeghiazaryan, Narek Mets Hayq, DJ Smoke and Emmanual--to name a few.
