(Progressive rock, djent, jazz, fusion) Niko Tsonev - Banshees And Harpsichords - 2013, MP3, 128 kbps

Stunted Records.
Niko's guitar and production approach on his 2013 album Banshees and Harpsichords depicts sonic landscapes reminiscent of a dark, modern and edgy Treznor-esque film soundtrack. With Tsonev at the production helm and playing all instruments on the record, the idea behind “Banshees and Harpsichords” was to explore the voices of modern guitar-Banshees incarnating the heavy, glitchy, distorted and intentionally "ugly" guitar sounds and stylistics. Harpsichords on the other hand is the methaphor for lyrical beauty and near-vocal expression found in Niko's guitar melodies.

The song Acid Tears features the amazingly talented Grog from the British alternative band Die So Fluid on vocals. On the title track Banshees and Harpsichords the call of Niko's guitar is answered by the soaring jazz violin work of Samy Bishai. Grog (from British Alternative Rock band Die So Fluid)-Vocals and Vocal Harmonies on "Acid Tears". Samy Bishai-Solo Violin and Strings on "Banshees and Harpsichords".
