Dino Dvornik
Miljenko "Dino" Dvornik (pronounced [dǐːno dʋôːrnik]; 20 August 1964 – 7 September 2008), was a Croatian musician, music producer, actor and reality television star. Often referred to by the nickname "Kralj funka" ("King of Funk"), Dvornik was a highly popular act in Croatian and Yugoslav popular music.
Son of renowned actor Boris Dvornik, Dino Dvornik appeared as a child actor in several Yugoslav films and television series, before starting his musical career in the funk band Kineski Zid, which he formed with his brother Dean Dvornik in 1982. The group split up after releasing only one album, with Dino deciding to start a career as solo artist. His self-titled debut album was released in 1989, gaining commercial success and critical acclaim with its funk and soul sound. His following studio album Kreativni nered, released in 1990, maintained his large mainstream popularity in Yugoslavia. However, the outbreak of the Yugoslav Wars brought discontinuity in his career. During the 1990s and early 2000s, he recorded four more studio albums, all of them well-received by critics and the general public.
Dvornik died in 2008 after overdosing on a mixture of sleeping pills, analgesics and antidepressants. His eighth and last studio album Pandorina kutija was released posthumously during the same year and was followed by a number of tributes to Dvornik by artists from Croatia and former Yugoslav region.
