{{Teaser|
Being a collaboration between two DJs and a drummer, [[Jimmy Barka Experience]] are a rather special musical set up. The trio consists of [[DJ Bakto]], [[DJ Borka]] (both of them very much into funk, soul and rare groove, which they present in their respective shows on [[Radio Študent (RŠ)|Radio Študent]]) and [[Marjan Stanić]], a renowned Slovene percussionist and a member of [[Čompe]], [[Bast]], [[Vasko Atanasovski Trio]], [[Lolita]] and many other groups. 

Though coming from slightly different musical backgrounds (Stanić is more into ethno and jazz), they have found a way of effectively combining live drumming with electronic samples and mash-ups produced with turntables.

Their music is a fine mixture of funk, breakbeat, Balkan rhythms, rock and afro sounds, escorted by powerful live performances, easily suitable for wild dancing. Jimmy Barka Experience (named after Džimi Barka, a character from an old Serbian film called ''When I'm Dead and Gone'' and played by Dragan Nikolić) first appeared on the monthly funk event called ''Zeleno Sonce'' held at [[Gala hala]] in [[established::2010]].
