A new album featuring previously unreleased songs by the late, great Oliver Dragojević has officially been released.

Titled “Dolaziš”, the album offers a powerful and emotional journey through twelve new tracks that carry Oliver’s timeless musical signature.

Available now on all major streaming platforms and in physical CD format, “Dolaziš” is a poignant tribute to one of Croatia’s most iconic voices.

Twelve Never-Before-Heard Tracks

The album includes the previously released singles “Ne mogu ti reći” and “Vrime je”, and introduces the title track “Dolaziš”, alongside nine other songs – each infused with Oliver’s unmistakable warmth and emotion.

Adding a special touch to the project are several notable collaborations, featuring respected Croatian artists such as Tedi Spalato, Marijan Ban, Zbor Izvor, Klapa Šuft, and Edo Bralić.

A Song Years in the Making

The title song “Dolaziš”, written by Vinko Barčot, was recorded by Oliver in a demo version back in 2010. Speaking about the track, Barčot shared:

“After Kad mi dođeš ti, the song Dolaziš came to me, and Oliver recorded a demo in 2010. I’m glad the Dragojević family liked it and that it’s finally being released. I hope it touches listeners as much as the other songs on the album.”

Visual Tribute Through Music Video

The song “Dolaziš” is accompanied by a beautifully shot music video, directed by Toni Mijač, who also directed the video for “Vrime je”. The video continues the emotional narrative, portraying a man awaiting reconnection with a loved one – echoing Oliver’s lyrical and emotional world.

Mijač described the project as both a challenge and a privilege:

“It was an honour to contribute visually to Oliver’s legacy. I aimed to reflect the song’s melancholy yet hopeful tone, incorporating symbolic elements linked to Oliver’s previous work. I often wonder what Oliver would have said about what we’ve created, but I believe we’ve done justice to his memory.”

Album Launch in Vela Luka

The album will be officially presented on 28 July in Vela Luka, the day before the traditional memorial concert “Trag u beskraju”, held each year on the anniversary of Oliver’s passing.
