The Sleeper was born  in Belgrade. His first intense contact with music began when he, at six years, received a walkman as a gift. He was so consumed by hearing music loudly that he would not part from it for days. One of these séances ended with him loosing hearing for few days, but luckily, that was just a temporary glitch; as he went on to start creating music for his joy, and the joy of many around him.
The Sleeper is one of the founders and group members of Dirty Cover organisation. In year 2000 he started DJing, and his interest and creativity further naturally and spontaneously grew and led him to start with music production. Both his music as a producer and a DJ are guided by his philosophy of music. Flow of the soft sound intertwined with clarity of rhythm, which rushes your body to dance (That is a fact!).
He plays in great number of clubs and festivals throughout ex Yugoslavian countries (e.g. Exit festival), and has built a respectable and well-known name at ex-Yu club scene. The attraction to the music he produces and performs lies in the flawlessness of his mixing and an unusual record collection.
You can find releases of The Sleeper on the following labels: Evasive, Vi Tva, DCS Trax, Manuscript , Base Legere,Toto,Percent , Big Mama, Kotangens,Audiometric,AudioBite, 2600, BM Slim, Proloop,Muenchen,Baccara,Wasabi,Doppelganger,Tantrum Logo,City Life,Dance All Ways... and many more to come!

„Happy People – United Youth of Belgrade“ jedan je od najstarijih profesionalnih dj kolektiva sa prostora jugoistočne Evrope – osnovan je 1994. godine. Skoro dve decenije svog trajanja duguju tradiciji uvek svežeg pristupa elektronskoj plesnoj sceni koji je postao njihov zaštitni znak i godinama ih nagrađuje novim generacijama lojalne publike. „Pomeranje granica klabinga je sveobuhvatni koncept sa više nepoznatih koji čine muzika, lokacija, dekor i ovladavanje novim tehnologijama. Njihova interakcija i disanje zajedno čini naš produkt čiji je osnovni zadatak da uvek zadovolji i najprobirljivije posetioce – ultimativnu žurku. Zadovoljan sam jer u svakom pogledu sve više napredujemo;“ govori dj Lale, prvi čovek i osnivač „Happy People“ organizacije.
„Happy People“ dj tim čine Aleksandar Pavić Lale, Goran (Zmix) Kovačević, Vladimir Bukilić (Mr.Flowers), Marko Vuković i Petar Cvetković (Lomatic, lider bratske „Dirty Cover“ ekipe), a za svoj šesnaesti rođendan porodica je bogatija za još dva nova člana - Nikolu Paunovića i Predraga Šestića (Shekimon). U svoj bogati rezime ubrajaju nekadašnju saradnju sa imenima kao što su Srđan Žika Todorović, Marko Nastić, Petkovski, Raja i Proka. Gostuju po svim većim gradovima kako Srbije, tako i regiona, a pored Makedonije i Hrvatske, najviše saradnje ostvaruje se sa eminentnim dj-evima londonske tek-haus scene (Eddie Richards, Terry Francis, Gideon Jackson, Dave Mothersole, Pure Science, Grant Dell, Richard Grey, Nathan Coles, Asad Rizvi).
Kao bitnu disciplinu, “Happy People” još od osnivanja favorizuje i fuziju umetničkih pravaca, te se tokom prošlih godina mogu pohvaliti brojnim kolaboracijama sa raznim muzičarima, mc-jevima i bendovima od kojih su najveći projekti “Just Us” (sa “Zerkman Big Bang Triom,” uz krilaticu “Fuzija je čudo i biće nam ludo!”) i sadašnji “Manu,” uz vokale, gitaru i klavijature Gorana Tomanovića (“Oktobar 1864,” “Braća Left) i sempler i žive perkusije Nebojše Adamovića (“Straight Jackin”). U ništa manje važnim producentskim vodama iza sebe imaju nekolicinu oprobanih izdanja na etiketama kao što su “Proloop” i “Hit Beat,” a u svoj pionirski rad takođe ubrajaju i osnivanje i koorganizaciju beogradskog dj-festivala “Ovo je moj grad.”


Born in Belgrade, he showed his enthusiasm towards electronic music long time ago, in 1994, with the opening of the legendary club “Industria” in Belgrade. Gathering knowledge and technique from other DJ’s from that period, he started to swim in DJ waters by the 1999. By the end of 2002, he meets DJ Choda who was at the time owner of the local record shop “Groove Inn” in Belgrade, and with him and another DJ friend, DJ Mandarina he co-founds organization GROOVE INN. Working in the record shop and mixing daily for hours on turntables, he picked up a serious mixing technique on the vinyls and learned all the possibilities of DJ mixer.
He acquired his first residentship in 2003, at a club Mamolo, and continued to be a successful resident there of Tuesday nights during 3 seasons, while the club was open. A lot of local DJ’s were a part of that Tuesday nights in Mamolo, some of them were famous, some were young aspiring DJ’s, as that was the original concept of those Tuesday nights at Mamolo - giving a break to young and undiscovered talents. He was also resident DJ in clubs such as Cvijeta, Energija and Anderground where he was also a manager for one season.
Beside playing at every important club in Serbia and region, he also played at festivals such is “EXIT” on world famous DANCE ARENA, "Sea Dance Festival", "Fresh Wave", “Ovo je moj grad”, “Beer Fest”, “SHARE”, “Love Fest”, “BLEF”... He also played on first MTV Adria Movie Awards in Belgrade in 2011.
In 2007 he was a part of “TECHNOLOGY - The Best DJ Annual Awards”, where he was selected as The Best DJ in Serbia in 2007.
He shared his place behind the decks with stars such as Martin Buttrich, Matthias Tanzmann, Davide Squillace, Oliver Huntmann, Victor Ruiz, Boris Brejcha, Oxia, D-Nox, Booka Shade, Dubfire & Sharam (Deep Dish), Anja Schneider, Rodriguez Jr., Emanuel Satie, Disclosure, Carl Craig, Green Velvet, Claude Von Stroke, Re-UP, Timid Boy, Mark Henning, Afrilounge, Silicone Soul, Terry Lee Brown Jr., The Timewriter, Eelke Kleijn, Terry Francis, Eddie “Evil” Richards, Pole Folder, Ladytron, Alex Niggemann...
By the end of 2007 he starts his own music production, and in December 2008 he released his first single "WHISTLIN' BUG" made with Audionova for label Rezonant. After that first single, along came the others like “Potent Substance”, “Donde”, Ikebana”, “Thisplay” and remixes for many artists…
His collaboration with fashion designer Ivana Pilja in 2010 resulted in making music for her first award winning collection on Belgrade Fashion Week. He continued his work with her on 2012 Belgrade Fashion Week when he made music for her new collection. In 2015 he made music for world famous designer Marko Mitanovski and his 2015 A/W collection presented at 2015 London Fashion Week.
He is also member of the DJ duo known as “SillyHeadz” when he plays back-to-back with DJ Bokee from Kinetic Vibe.
He doesn’t like to place the music he spins into genres. The root is house music with massive sound, with elements of techno, minimal and deep. In a word: fusion! He’s known for his dynamic mixing abilities and techniques, and his communication with audience during his sets.

“The most important thing for me is a feedback from my audience. I don’t like when DJ is not paying attention to the crew in the club. After all, we are here so they can have good time, and to present our music in the best way we know how. If there is a feedback, if there’s contact with the audience, the party can not be bad.”

We became interested in Dj-ing in the 90's, when Serbia was flooded, with pirate radio station, among them "Flash radio", our own station. Since most of these station were put off the air and some legalized, we became resident Dj's in a river club popular in those years, and played anything that made sense(disco, hiphop, acid house...) That broadened our horizons, and the first computer we got was used for sampling "hits"and making instant remixes for our circle. In the meantime, we had our show on TV B92 for some 12 months, and that show gradually started dealing with all forms of "computer" music.
