    My first thought was the Mongolian horse-head fiddle for heavy metal music by The Hu Also their throat-singing technique. They rock.

      That horse-head fiddle was pretty cool! First discovered Mongolian throat-singing watching Olox on America's Got Talent a while back. Still to this day my favorite cover of Zombie by The Cranberries.

    Here’s an Accordion duet cover of “Through the Fire and Flames.” Also check out Steve’n’Seagulls.
