A self-titled \u201cmusician, poet, and media manipulator\u201d, he is a noted artist across the countries of former Yugoslavia.<\/p>\n<p>His songs combine satirical lyrics on human nature and silliness of local politics with a mixture of musical styles including jazz, rock, hip-hop and lately drum and bass, and self-conscious ironic wit; His concerts are never mere repetitions of recorded songs, but a mixture of musical improvisation and humor exploiting all aspects of human nature in a crude manner. Some fans compare his style and career path with Frank Zappa.\u201c<\/p>\n<p>We can just add this \u2013 there wouldn\u2019t be any DORF festival if we didn\u2019t have had so many of Rambo Amadeus in our lives and thoughts\u2026<\/p>\n<p>As in previous 2 years, our unique wooden awards are made by amazing genious from Split, young sculptor and comics author Miro \u017dupa<\/p>\n<p>DORF 2019 design is artwork by young and gifted designer Martin Peranovi\u0107.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Special DORF 2019 award for lifetime achievements we give to Slobodan \u0160ijan, serbian film director, writer and visual artist.
