“A Matter of Taste” Interview with Rajko Bozic of Exit Festival

Rajko Bozic is the Suba Stage selector, at Exit Festival, and a wonderful man that Madame had the pleasure to interview and meet personally. I can´t wait to see him again, really. Him and all the Exit´Team: Bojan, Nikola, Biljana, Srdjan, Rachel, … Serbia, here we go!

“It’s always hard to me to explain what I exactly do within The Exit festival. I have that problem to be defined. You may say I am here cause I am fashionably outdated. I am contributing to image – like Queen to England : )

My relation with music is organic – everything I do or think about has its soundtrack – I can’t imagine it to be other way. Still, I can’t play any instrument. But I sing all the time. My first favorite band were The Beatles. I was 6 year old and I saw A Hard Day’s Night on TV.”

What is your all time favorite record?

I don’t think I have all time favorite record – it’s changing. So far, my favorite all time records were Ziggy Stardust – David Bowie, Brazil Classic, Beleza Tropical – Various Artists… Are we talking only about LPs? I’ve never been and LP guy. My favorite all time songs will “I Wanna Be Your Dog”, “Pretty Vacant”, “You Make Me Feel” (Mighty Real), “Blue Monday”….

What song would you get up at 7 in the morning to hear? Many, but probably “Teenage Kicks” by The Undertones more than any other. “Vulindlela” by Brenda Fassie too!

What do you think is the best song to ever come out of Servia? “U Ovom Gradu Svi Su Ludi” by Obojeni Program.

What is the sound of You? “Turn My Way” by New Order (at least I like to thin so : ))

What do you like most about Exit, the event in general? That it’s impossible and is still happening..

What do you recommend as “not to miss” at Exit? The Gaslamp Killer and Gonjasufi together!
