Billain
Biography:
Billa's , or Adis's sound explorations started in 1999, at the age of 16, under 3 age long influence of „The Prodigy“ point of view.His first ideas and creations were complementary to the techno fever that happened in Sarajevo, Bosnia, around 1998-99 when he made his first techno tracks and had his first events as Liveact DJ. His tracks and mixes were heard on „Twilight zone“(„Radio Fern“) wich was the best radio for urban cutting edge sounds, where he was recognized by Jasmin Ferovic, known as Dj Ferra, one of the few responsible for a grow of clubbing population in Sarajevo at that time. Billain had his first events such as: „Electronic connection“, „Drum code 1“, „Evil Friday @ Kuk“…he was recognized as „not affraid to put techno on 155 bmp's-which explains his dedication to dnb now…“.At one point in year 2000 he had produced about 300 minimal techno songs…The only problem was the"label". There were no labels in Sarajevo, even Bosnia (same problem in the year of our lord, 2007), so all those dusty creations were on a small computer just for himself ...in year 2000 techno fever exhausted the people and the ears, and his journey brought him to some new terrains...Somewhere around 2000, Organization known as „Kontra“ came on the dancefloor with DnB and first events with Stakka and skynet, Kemal, BSE, Paul B, Matrix & Optical, Optiv, Teebee, Codex, Impulse, Miss Ficel, Chris SU & SKC, Dave the drummer & many more in Sarajevo, wich took him to that side of enjoyment and sound experiments, so he started to produce DnB tracks (under goldie, photek and prodigy fusion of influence-again just for himself)."gp" hiphop association also happened,and it shook Sarajevo with parties and many new artists were born. we formed a "Fullclip Radio Show" on "eFM 93,1".With all that he started to produce hiphop instumentals, abstract and '94 dirty funk- string cutting sound with hard rythm. as a dnb Dj he was spinning drum n bass for the first time in "Barhana"... 2001-2004 were the years when he learned the basics of good production, and at last,earned some good studio hardware. People say he did alot for the scene. Edo Maajka, Diyala, Capital city crew, Frenkie, Luga, Shtela, KaraMC, Hare the Bullet, Koma, Somer, Cma, Fakat ba, Ganjoliny, Mc delight, Mc tony, Mayer, SamOsa are the portofolio with the happy smiles on the consume's faces for the instrumentals he made for them…Little after he was a friday resident hiphop dj in "Bock club". but that was not enough, not the real himself.All those years, at late night or early morning, rhythm beasts were rising, as the sleepy mind expressed the purest landscapes of its mental condition...He was truly unbearable hungry for basslines. Every beat was going faster, snares turned to be more agressive than they were and the kicks turned out they want to be a breath stoppers...Then he formed "Haverkraft" duo with DJ Ahmaad, and took his drum n bass djing seriously for the rest of his life as he turned around and realised how much the breakdown meant to him…now he is invited by "The Factory Records (Georgia) and "Close2Death Records" (London) to establish the 2008 generation of Drum n Bass projects with these nets & label connections, so the year 2008 will be the year of his next level…
