Neki Stranac

NEKI STRANAC is Serbian electronic dance music producer, DJ and musician born in 1979. Coming from family of musicians, NEKI STRANAC got involved into music since the age of six, playing guitar and later bass guitar, vocals and ethnic and medieval woodwinds. Parallel to his instrumentalist and vocalist self-exploration in his 5-member jazz-rock band ShazaLaKazoo (formed in 1995), in the mid-90`s he got into music recording and production through legendary Tascam Porta Studio mixer, which was the analog tape-style preparation for computer music production that followed in 1998. First electronic music genres he was involved back in late 90`s and early 2000`s were trip hop, drum`n`bass, jungle and breakbeats, which were in their peak in Europe back then. As the time got by, his music orientation changed more into ethnic inspired sounds from various corners of the World, such as the Balkans, Latin America, Africa, the Middle East or India.
