Album Notes & Community Reviews

Working alongside the Mivos Quartet and industrial pioneer JG Thirlwell acting as arranger, Nika Roza Danilova entirely deconstructed tracks from her previous electronic albums. Stripping away the heavy synths and drum machines, 'Versions' relies strictly on lush, brooding string arrangements to highlight her powerful operatic vocals.
