BORISLAV COMMENTS...
The music on Fantasy was largely inspired by virtuoso compositions by the legendary violin wizard Niccolo Paganini. My dream at that time was to reach the beauty of expression and the level of technical brilliance of playing that can be heard on the classical violin and make it part of the electric guitar. Dexterity, passion, singing vibrato, control and perfection in execution of musical ideas were the goals I was after and hopefully the ones I achieved. I consider my playing on this album to be some of my best ever."

 

This is Borislav's second solo album and first "international" release. It was published by Mike Varney's Shrapnel Records which is a label known for discovering and working with best Rock/Metal guitar virtuosos on the planet like: Yngwie Malmsteen, Jason Becker, Paul Gilbert, Ron Thal, Michael Schenker and many others. All songs featured are Borislav's originals and display a wide range in styles from Neoclassical Metal to Ethnic flavoured compositions.

"Borislav's Shrapnel recording reveals a guitarist brimming with talent. Although there are many neo-classical moments on this CD, the Serbian guitarist brings more diverse influences into play than the average neo-classical shredder. Borislav is one of the most technically proficient guitarists on the Shrapnel label and this CD more than aptly demonstrates that point." - Mike Varney, Shrapnel Records
