Gramophonedzie has delivered one of the most distinctive anthems of the year with Why Don’t You. A huge Ibiza jackin house anthem from last year (along with 'La Mezcla', you couldn't go anywhere on the White Isle without this being heard!) and the dance-floor weapon of choice by the likes of Tony Humphries, Roger Sanchez, DJ Sneak, Kevin Saunderson, Carl Cox, Dennis Ferrer, and Norman Jay plus has also appeared in a couple of my own DJ mixes over the Summer last year,
An addictive blend of house, funk and classic swing, Gramophonedzie – aka Serbian producer and DJ Marko Milicevic – built Why Don’t You around a sample from Peggy Lee’s famous take on the Kansas Joe McCoy blues standard Why Don’t You Do Right?
Marko Milicevic has performed alongside Basement Jaxx, Roger Sanchez, Bob Sinclair, Derrick Carter and David Morales and also holds the distinction of producing the theme song for the Balkan franchises of Big Brother!
Gramophonedzie's 'Why Don’t You' originally appeared along with 'Street Lady' on the 'Swingin’ With The Fishes EP' released by San Francisco underground house label Guesthouse Records.
Will 'Why Don’t You' be another crossover smash, we'll see when it receives a full mainstream release on February 28th.
