  • Bio

    .. .. .. I edited my profile with SLJIVOVITZA!OPAA!JA SAM JA JEREMIJA! Please note that Goran..s Myspace page is run by his fans - not Goran himself. We don't personally know him nor can we send him messages. We are just here to spread his wonderful music all over the world. Roots in the Balkans where he stems from, head in the 21st Century which he fully inhabits, Goran Bregovic's music marries sounds of a gypsy brass band with traditional Bulgarian polyphonies, those of an electric guitar and traditional percussion with a curious rock accent... all against a background of a bedevilled string orchestra and deep sonorities of a male choir, creating music that our soul recognises instinctively and the body greets with an irresistible urge to dance. Born in Sarajevo of a Serbian mother and a Croatian father. After a few years of (very unenthusiastic) music studies at the conservatory (violin), Goran forms his first group ..The White Button.. at the age of sixteen. Composer and guitar player (..I chose the guitar because guitar players always have most success with girls..), he admits his immoderate love for rock n'roll. "In those times, Rock had a capital role in our lives. It was the only way we could make our voice heard, and publicly express our discontent without risking jail (or just about)..." Studies of philosophy and sociology would most certainly have landed him teacher of Marxist thought, had the gigantic success of his first record not decided otherwise. Follow fifteen years with his group "The White Button", marked by marathon-tours and endless sessions of autographing in which Goran plays youth idol in Eastern countries until he's sick and tired of it. At the end of the eighties BREGOVIC takes time away from this permanent hustle-bustle to compose music for Kusturica..s "Times of the Gypsies", and to make his childhood dream come true: to live in a small house on the Adriatic coast. The War in Yugoslavia shatters this, and many other dreams, and Goran has to abandon everything to find exile in Paris.. Discography: 1974. Kad bi bio bijelo dugme 1974.
