INFO:
It's been a while since producers MARKO PELAIC and DJ SERGEJ stepped up for a rerun of their wild party habits, synonymous to the perpetual celebration of life, rooted deeply in the Balkan mentality. Same as the Balkan mentality, that's always changing and over going core change at the same time, BECARI never left us, but have come back for the better. This time around, BECARI voice two songs; their own club smash STIKLA and a remix by VITAMIN K.
BECARI carefully nurture their ability to capture the cultural framework, transpose and project it into universal language, a modern slang of a thousand year old Balkan musical heritage mixed together with the present club culture, which, as far as our ambition goes, will last for a thousand years to come. This particular ore is found in the gaze of those innovative and receptive enough to answer the needs of the people dancing to celebrate life.
And what's more important for dancing, except good music, than dancing shoes. There's a certain sexiness to high heels, and you know when woman are having a good time when they stomp their feet so hard to the sexy rhythm of STIKLA so their high heels brake.
BECARI timely address the moment when this occurs and comfort the woman in the refrain 'girl don't sweat it, just listen to the rhythm flow', 'brake your high heels' because dancing to STIKLA is not up for negotiation.
IVAN KADELBURG aka VITAMIN K got his hands on BECARIs� STIKLA and turned it into an acid house classic. A refreshing sound that's a bit different from what he presented on his debut ESSENTIAL VITAMINS album, but the same curiosity and drive are evident. IVANs' remixing signature is well present and portraits a sound you might hear in his DJ sets at numerous venues in Amsterdam.
We leave the girl bear foot and BECARI to continue their musical endeavors, buried in the studio, somewhere in Zagreb that's split by the 45th parallel, to send their message alongside residing geographical lines and hopefully beyond. If, in the words of Marshall McLuhan, 'The Medium is the message', we are happy to have BECARI conveying a mutual message once again, hopefully to capture the intrigues of those self-designated to hear and listen, discover and learn.
