Shazalakazoo is a Serbian electronic music duo known for their vibrant blend of traditional Balkan sounds with electronic genres like house, techno, and drum 'n' bass. Formed in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, in the distant year of 1997 by Milan Djurić and Uroš Petković, they have managed to put their own spin on the Balkan beats, earning them a niche following among those who appreciate both the old and the new in music. They coined the term "folkstep" to describe their unique sound, which involves synthesizing electronic beats with live Eastern European folk instrumentation.

Their extensive discography showcases their ability to transcend language and cultural barriers, gathering an array of influences across their sonic explorations. Recent releases like "Juggler's Play" and "Krasi" exemplify their approach, weaving complex rhythms and regional instruments such as brass, wind, and string, into an electronic tapestry that resonates on global dance floors. With "Metanational," they push the envelope further, embracing a cosmopolitan approach, while "Karton City Boom" and "Speaking Balkanian" capture their signature sound that has captivated audiences both in their home region and internationally. Shazalakazoo stands as a testament to the power of hybrid music to connect different musical traditions and eras.
