Nirvana Project

With a masters degree in Piano Performance from the Royal Academy of Music, Aysedeniz Gokcin turned heads with her variations of Pink Floyd songs—incorporating classical elements, electronic textures, and modern dance. The Turkish composer turns to another great, Nirvana, on this collection. She uses similar techniques on the bands biggest hits, like In Bloom, Come As You Are, and Smells Like Teen Spirit—blending virtuosic and minimal performance that is powerful and cathartic. And if you listen closely, you can hear Gokcin weave Adeles Rolling in the Deep into Rape Me—a wow moment.
