Nicky Skopelitis has made a name for himself in many circles by showing his versatility on guitar in several different styles -- often in collaboration with producer/bassist Bill Laswell. His sound can be bright and effect-laden, or distorted and computer-like when he blasts into a twisted solo. His music covers a lot of territory, from spaced-out, 1970s-style Fusion (a la Miles Davis) and trance-inducing Dub to hazy experimental ambiance and multicultural collages. His albums always feature some of the world's best players -- guests have included Foday Musa Suso on kora, Aiyb Dieng on percussion and Zakir Hussain on tabla. He has appeared on albums by Herbie Hancock, Material, the Golden Palominos, Manu Dibango, Ginger Baker and Bootsy Collins -- among many, many others.
