Finally, in my hands - the repress of the cult Yugoslavian boogie disco LP ŽUR by Boban Petrović destined to be played this summer. Oh, it sounds just as I hoped for - it's a soul melting earfull. Many people had their eyes on this project - but the team pulled it off - better believe the hype. Thank you and for making this one sound, look and read OG - from the original artwork and split front cover to the goosebump liner notes performed, not written, by - the man I immediatelly thought of when we started this big release and whose book is finally in my hands (Djape care). This documentary legend material - is also available in a deluxe felt cover double Boban Petrović LP - Žur + Zora. Get it while you can...

There has been a surge in AI generated music - just yesterday I was notified of YT channel dedicated to AI generated vintage ex-Yugoslavian music call Izgubljene ploce. s**t sounds wild. Soon after I started playing with it and then my man Jaka Batič prompted this one out - it's a 'sumama i gorama' big band yugo jazz funk - which has been completely prompt generated with solos and drum breaks included. ...(Is it on discogs?)...

[NEW RELEASE - PRE-ORDER] - After more than 40 years of holding the title of one of the grooviest world Disco and funky AOR records coming from ex-Yugoslavia, the legendary ŽUR, romantic debut LP by yugo disco legend Boban Petrović is finally getting a repress on Everland Music Group. In close cooperation with Boban we have been able to do justice to this LP held dear by all in the rare groove scene. The LP was burning wallet holes for those unlucky to stumble upon on an affordable copy (the LP was going for more than 200€ in the last year) so now is your chance to get your hands on a copy remastered by Grammy nominee Jessica Thompson. Additionally, for this release spear headed by Nenad Borovic, we got Bege Fank, the funky Belgrade historian, MC, rapper and artist on board to do research, liner notes and an interview with Boban - all packed in a beautiful booklet containing forgotten archive press clippings of Boban. For those in the mood to complete their solo Boban collection in one go - Everland is also putting out a Zur and Zora as a deluxe double release - so check that out as well. I still remember to this day getting my hands on a copy brought to me by Dejan Gavrilovic straight from Nis to Rijeka - I never left to a gig from that moment on without packing Zur in the bag. This LP is an unavoidable testament to the socialist pop culture going mainstream and as well a testament to a man and his disco vision. Zur was recorded in Yugoslavia but, the vocals, mix and mastering were done in Switzerland in the end where Boban went to complete and polish the LP.
