The publishing house Beats per Montenegro released a new single SOULx3000, a music project started by producer and DJ Nikola Rajović from Podgorica, known as DJ Mono, the name of the single is HOME.
The SOULx3000 project was created as an open creative platform that brings together different vocalists, musicians and producers, with the idea that each new encounter brings a different interpretation of contemporary sound. This time, Rajović collaborates with Todor Tadić and Marko Ćacić from the Podgorica studio Knowhere2run.
After previous releases, among which the reinterpretation of the traditional song "Još ne sviće svanja zora" with Tina Džankić stood out, SOULx3000 enters a new phase of work and brings a fresh author's story.
The new single brings a combination of recognizable soul aesthetics, electronic production and modern urban sensibility, with a sound that simultaneously belongs to the local area and communicates with the contemporary regional scene.
The idea of the project from the beginning was that genre boundaries should not be seen as a limitation, but as a space for experiment, collaboration and the creation of new musical forms.

This is precisely why SOULx3000 functions more as a collective creative idea than as a classic band, and each new release represents a new chapter in that story.
Behind the project stands Nikola Rajović, one of the long-standing names of the Montenegrin hip-hop and urban music scene, who through SOULx3000 continues to connect experience, contemporary production and new generations of authors.
"HOME" is about home, but home here is not just an address, a house or the space we live in — it can be love, closeness, belonging, security and empathy.
The idea of the song starts from a simple question: what is home for us?
For some it is the house where they grew up, for some it is the person they return to, and for some it is the feeling of being accepted, understood and safe.
Through the combination of electronic production, soul and urban sensibility, "HOME" tries to turn that very feeling into sound and atmosphere.
Along with the new single, an accompanying video was released, which further visually develops the atmosphere of the song and represents a new phase of the SOULx3000 project.
