A recording project uniting musicians from Nashville, Charleston, New York, Los Angeles and the former Yugoslavia — reviving the spirit of an era, one song at a time.
Pulling the latest catalog from Apple Music…
Some songs are newly written. Others began as demo tapes from decades past, never officially released — now re-imagined with world-class musicians and modern production.
“Return of Angels” revives the powerful atmosphere of the 1980s Yugoslav rock scene — a time when music, youth, and creativity thrived across the region. New songs sit beside resurrected demos, all re-recorded at the highest level.
Fifteen reimagined soundtracks from the most beloved films of the former Yugoslavia. Timeless melodies of the great silver screen, brought back to life with fresh energy while honoring their original soul.
A protest song and a patriotic call to the people of Serbia — to stand strong, resist oppression, and refuse silence. A deep love for the country, and hope for a better future.
An echo of older times — when life was simple and honest. She sees flowers; he sees grass and wonders if it goes with a beer. Two worlds, one love, always dancing together. Because no matter the trends: my dear, I am still a man.
A deeply emotional song about two people torn apart by life, whose love never faded — living on in silence and longing, finding comfort in the bottle until it consumed them both.
Written to open Stari Drugovi concerts: a high-energy piece that ignites the atmosphere from the first note and pulls the audience straight into the show.
Stari Drugovi is a musical project created by drummer and producer Miroslav “Miki” Lekić, founder of Studio 11 Productions, bringing together a remarkable group of musicians and singers from across the United States and the former Yugoslavia.
With artists based in Nashville, Charleston, New York, and Los Angeles, the project unites seasoned professionals who share a deep love for the music and spirit of the old Yugoslav rock era. Many of the performers come from Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, Macedonia, Montenegro, and Slovenia — and most have known each other for decades. True stari drugovi.
The idea was simple but powerful: gather passionate musicians and create recordings at the highest level, honoring the sound and emotion of the music they grew up with — classic-inspired songs from the Yugoslav era alongside new compositions in English, blending nostalgia with modern production. More than a recording project, it is a celebration of friendship, shared history, and the timeless sound that shaped a generation.
