DJ Killo Killo
A concert by the Novi Sad artist DJ Killo Killo will be held on 13 August in the garden of the Ilion Castle in Sremski Karlovci, within The Danube Sea programme arch.
DJ Killo Killo that is, Vojislav Malešev, was born in Novi Sad, where he works at the Serbian National Theatre, as a singer in the opera choir. He has a solo reggae/ragga MC project nicknamed Killo Killo. As part of it, he sings over roots, reggae, or ragga riddims, using his poetry and sometimes adding oriental nuances to existing melodies. In 2007 he founded the band KILLO KILLO Banda which successfully accompanies him with rhythms with high energy fusion of funk, reggae, and dancehall vibes.
As DJ Killo Killo, he actively participates in all events organized by Global Village People and has performed throughout the former Yugoslavia, in Rio de Janeiro, Paris, Vienna, Dortmund, Cologne, etc. His favourite musical interests are mainly related to his ‘trans-global’ thinking based on the idea that listening to music from India, the Middle East, the Balkans, North Africa, and the Amazon can help one find spiritual happiness and enrichment of the soul. He is able to make people dance and enjoy modern rhythms combined with the various traditional third-world heritage that can sometimes bring people into a kind of meditative trance or one step away from a mystical experience.
The concert will be held as part of the Danube Culture Festival.
This one-day music festival aims to show the local audience part of the spectrum of musical diversity offered by bands and musicians from Europe and the region, especially those that are united by the Danube, and nature in general, which is manifested in their colourful music and the cheerfulness they spread at their performances.
This time, the emphasis is on the original music that, with its mix of genres, fun character, and virtuoso performances, breaks all the boundaries and manages to make these seemingly local heroes into world-renowned artists.
