For COa, each beat, rhythm, and melody is more than just sound; it's an unfolding story, a testament to the dedication, evolution, and heartfelt inspiration.
Aleksandar (COa)'s musical journey began in grade school early 90’s as drummer for "Art Bliss" an alternative band from Jagodina. During those days, COa discovered his natural connection to music, a gift influenced by his father's beats as a rock drummer and complemented by his older brother's own musical pursuits.

In the mid-'90s, Aleksandar's musical sensibilities were inundated with new sounds. For the first time, he was introduced to the underground rhythms of acid house via FM radio. Television broadcasts like VJ Techno, Supernova, and the Thursday late night radio show "Fraktal" on Radio Politika further fueled his passion for electronic music. This newfound love culminated when he attended a major party in Belgrade in 1996.

During challenging times in the 90s for Serbia, without access to proper DJ & studio equipment, COa and his friend Dragan F. delved somehow into the world of DJ-ing with BST CDJ Players, and music production using software such as HammerHead Rhythm Station, PropellerHead ReBirth RB-338, and later Fruity Loops. This passion led them to establish a concept called "Technodrome" (1997 – 2003) - techno parties that became a voice of resistance and revolution in Jagodina. 

Yet, it was in 2012, with the embrace of Ableton Live, that COa truly found his electronic voice, uncovering an enriched appreciation for the vast canvas of electronic music.

Throughout their music journey back in 90's and 2000's in Jagodina, COa, and Dragan F. established themselves as central figures of the electronic music genre, taking up long-term DJ residencies in renowned clubs including Rupa, DNK, Life, and Princip. Their sets became anticipated events and influenced the local electronic music scene.

Between 1997 and 2003, Jagodina witnessed a cultural metamorphosis. "Technodrome" wasn't merely an event; it was an experience, a movement that COa and Dragan F. created. Their influence permeated deeper than the turntables & CDJs. From 1997-2003, the "Technodrome" phase under their stewardship redefined Jagodina's electronic music cultural soundscape.

In 2003 both COa and Dragan F., collectively known as “Technodrome”, made the difficult decision to dissolve their organization. But they wouldn't bow out quietly. Instead, they orchestrated what would become the most significant party Jagodina had ever witnessed: 'Demonstracija Sile' (Demonstration of the Force). This monumental event drew a crowd of over 5,000 attendees, unfolding in the expansive cinema hall, equipped with a staggering 20-kilowatt Turbosound system, lasers, and a video projector. It wasn't just a party; it was a statement, marking the end of Technodrome but ensuring its legacy would echo through the chronicles of Jagodina's electronic music history.

COa's influence wasn't confined only to the decks; he became a beacon for new budding artists from Jagodina, mentoring and enlightening them about the intricacies of music production.

Transitioning into the Hypnotix phase, he proudly introduced two EPs to a U.S. label, 1 Vinyl LP for the German Label, and the subsequent metamorphosis into COa marked another chapter of his diverse musical journey. 

Now, his work embraces genres like electro, techno, and techno house (not a tech-house shit).

Presently, COa is more than a pseudonym; it's a representation of Aleksandar's expansive journey. Through his Live Project and DJ sets, he showcases a curated experience, reflecting years of dedication and an innate understanding of electronic music.
