About me:
46 year old DJ from Belgrade, Serbia
Marko Milićević, known professionally as Gramophonedzie, is a Belgrade-born DJ and producer whose work bridged retro swing/jazz samples with contemporary house beats and brought South-Eastern European club music into international dance charts. He emerged in the early 2000s as a producer and remixer, building a signature sound that blends live-feeling swing motifs, crisp jackin’ house rhythms and polished dance-floor arrangements. His breakout single repurposed a classic vocal/jazz motif into a modern club single, earning widespread radio play and crossing into mainstream charts—an achievement that established him as a rare regional export with global reach
Across his career Gramophonedzie has balanced studio work, remixes and high-energy DJ sets. In the studio he favors warm, sample-driven hooks layered over tight percussive patterns and bright, vocal-forward arrangements that translate well to festival/main-room contexts as well as boutique club nights. He approaches production with an ear for groove and melody: percussion and swing-inflected rhythms anchor tracks while basslines and brass-like stabs deliver memorable moments that producers and DJs can slot into longer sets. His catalog includes original singles, collaborations and remixes that demonstrate a consistent tendency to fuse nostalgic timbres with current dance production techniques.
As a DJ Gramophonedzie’s sets are characterized by dynamic pacing—opening with lighter, groove-based house and progressively moving into peak-time jackin’ and house-driven energy. He reads a room by alternating period textures (retro samples, broken-beat interludes) with modern club elements (clear low end, punched kicks, and filtered rises), which makes his performances both nostalgic and contemporary. This hybrid approach helped him secure festival slots, club residencies and international bookings throughout Europe and beyond, raising the profile of Belgrade’s scene in the 2010s and after.
Beyond live performance and releases, Marko has participated in regional music projects, collaborated with other producers and contributed to compilations and soundtracks. He has used his platform to bring attention to local scenes, while his polished productions made him accessible to larger labels and radio DJs across Europe. The balance between sample-based songwriting and dancefloor functionality remains a throughline: his tracks aim to be both singable and club-effective, with careful attention to arrangement, timing and sonic clarity.
