Album Description

Viensko Horo marks the beginning of the collabotration between the legendary Bulgarian drummer Stoyan Yankoulov and KAPIKO — a vibrant instrumental journey on which progressive jazz-rock meets Balkan fire.

The title Viensko Horo - Bulgarian for “Viennese Horo” - pays tribute to the fact that the piece was composed by Batuhan Aydın and Nikolaus Grill nearly spontaneously while on tour in Vienna/Austria.

The track unfolds around a melody echoing the spirit of Balkan horo dances, Yankoulov’s powerful drumming, cool guitars and a playful piano riff. Batuhan Aydın’s hypnotic Bulgarian kaval playing breathes soul into the song and rounds off the listening experience.

Viensko Horo is more than a tune — it is a meeting point of cultures and rhythms, a celebration of roots and the paths they have evolved by.
