Cekic worked with DJ legend Tee Scott, run his aggressive operations using all the means necessary to get things done, legal or illegal.
He's also a pioneer of mashups.
After an impressive underground career he disappeared in early 80's.

However the bizarre story of Cekic case continues in same manner. He resurfaced back in former Yugoslavia during the independence of Republic of Montenegro (being Albanian from Montenegro, a place called Gusinje in the middle of nowhere deep in Balkan mountains far away from club dancefloors of NYC) rallying other Albanians from abroad (New York Region) to vote for independence on the referendum.
That wouldn't be bizarre in any way whatsoever had Cekic not've stated he was actually a "Demolition expert from Brooklyn".
The question remains as to what was he actually demolishing, disco scene or buildings.

These are the words of Tee Scott:

Tee Scott:" Began Cekic was a real case. He was a Yugoslavian guy with this little record company - One Way was a subsidiary of his main label, B.C. Records, which he eventually changed to One Way. He was the king of the copiers. He got a hold of me, and he treated me to all kinds of baubles (laughter); he bought me two huge 1500's, or 1520 tapedecks, the model they used in the studio with a "Store" feature and the extra sections for your tone generators, which were built-in; it cost about $4000. And then he bought me the 1506, which was a 4-track recorder. These were all gifts for doing those records for him. He made a lot of money on those!

He did Love Is the Message, Sixty-Nine (Spank), Eighty-Eight, Beyond the Clouds, Relight My Fire (Let's Get Horny), Computer Games, all of those... He took me to Florida, too. Of course he did cover records, really because he didn't sample anybody else's records - it wasn`t possible then,-- he just did things that sounded close to them. And after a while, he started getting involved in stuff that I felt I should back out of. He started getting really ridiculaus and stepping
over the line with a lot of stuff. I lost touch with him after a while."
