Inspired by Nature comes the dark ambient project of Veselin Mitov. “Slow layers of synths as a background, Bulgarian bagpipes that make your soul soar, and Eastern Orthodox Church choirs drown you in a deep sorrow. In ancient Bulgarian language Kayno Yesno Slonce means “like a bright shining sun”.

Veselin Mitov furnishes a mix of monumental and epic ambient soundscapes with powerful, natural Bulgarian folklore played with gaida (bagpipe), kaval (wooden flute) and percussion. Add to this a voice encompassing the pure feeling of freedom and archaic wisdom at the same time and you will be mesmerised! Some thrilling versions of traditional Bulgarian folk songs are added for the lovers of the old culture of the Balkans, where every stone is soaked with blood and has his own story.
