Biography Magazin
Magazin is a Croatian pop band from Split.
Founded in the 1970s under the name Dalmatinski magazin ("Dalmatian Magazine" in Croatian), the band quickly began to make a mark on local pop music festivals with its songs influenced by Dalmatian folk music. Its gradual rise in popularity continued in 1980s with series of prestigious festival victories.
But the zenith was reached in 1990s when Danijela Martinovi? became the band's lead singer. Band's leader Ton?i Hulji? began to insert elements of folk music of other European countries in his songs, often being criticised for promoting turbo folk in Croatia. This didn't matter much to the audience and Magazin became the most popular and most influential music band in Croatia.
The band represented Croatia once in the Eurovision Song Contest with Nostalgija.
Other notable Magazin singers include Ljiljana Nikolovska who used to sing in 1980s, Jelena Rozga till lately and now Ivana Kova? who is lead singer today.
