Rameen Sharif was born in a musically rich family; others view him as a producer, composer, singer, recording engineer, musician and exhilarating live performer. Early influences include his uncle and also his master Habib Sharif who is known for his compositions and fusion music, and his respected father, Sakhi Sharif who has been always there for him. Rameen began his career at the age of five. Ever since he was a child, he heard the strings of music ringing through his house. He got his first taste of performing at the age of six, in a live concert on the stage with percussion, where he was supported and accompanied by his uncle Habib Sharif. When he reached the age of nine he started playing various instruments, and received an authorization from the government of Afghanistan for being a mesmerizing musician at a very young age. He knew the quality of his talents very well and wanted to maximize those talents. He successfully finished high school in Toronto in 2002, and attended to Humber College for computer engineering, music recording and editing.
his younger brothers Omar and Haroon Sharif. They have also created their own studio, “Sharif Music Studio” which is designed to give other artists a relaxed, affordable place to record with outstanding sound, and they also arrange and record music for musicians. “I love experimenting with the new technology, and exploring its amazing possibilities – both for my own work and in production capacity for other artists” says Rameen.
So far Rameen appears to be handling his success well. His biggest flaw which confronts him everyday is the inability to see the big picture, and plan for the future to stay a pop star and accomplish more in order to serve his country and people with the best way of entertainment. Asked if it was a conscious attempt to stick to certain tunes, he said: “No, I am dedicated to experimenting with new styles and forms rather than be taken hostage by success as a commercial artist and thus creating formula music”. I am grateful of everyone who appreciates my music”. What is his dream? “I wish to be a legend like Ustat-Sarahang and Ahmed-Zahir!”
Seemingly, Rameen enjoys a very warm reception and appreciation of all his music fans around the world.
