Joker Out Masterpost for new fans

New fan of Joker Out? Say no more! 

Getting to know a new artist you’ve found can be intimidating if it’s all in another language, so we’ve compiled some of our favourite interviews, articles and lore here! You’ve arrived in a wonderful fanbase, welcome from all of us here at JokerOutSubs! 

If you’d just like a short overview of the band and their history, you can watch this excellent Finnish summary of them that we’ve translated (14m 53s).

But if you want to dive into the details, then check out our timeline, full of videos and articles translated by JokerOutSubs! 

Timeline graphic:

Timeline in details below the cut 👇

Timeline in details: 

How did the band form? 

Joker Out was formed from two bands, Apokalipsa and Buržuazija. 

Apokalipsa included Bojan Cvjetićanin (vocals), Martin Jurkovič (bass) and Matic Kovačič (drums) 

They gained some traction with young people around Slovenia, particularly with their song 'Mogoče' ('Maybe'), which you can watch on YouTube here.

They came to the attention of Kris Guštin, who was inspired to start learning guitar! He discusses the details in this video (at 9:40). 

Kris then met Jan Peteh, another student of his guitar teacher, and at their teachers advice, they formed the band Buržuazija. 

Bojan attended their second ever gig in 2016, and decided these two excellent guitarists were exactly what had been missing from Apokalipsa, as he wasn’t happy with their current guitarists. He asked them to join, and they accepted

The new lineup (Bojan, Jan, Kris, Martin and Matic) decided to rename themselves Joker Out. The name means nothing, but they thought it sounded good and was the ‘least horrible’ of all the ideas they could think of. 

So, in 2016, Joker Out was officially formed! 

November 2016, Kot srce ki kri poganja: 

Joker Out’s first music video was for their song ‘Kot srce ki kri poganja’ ('Like a heart that pumps blood'), filmed in Jan’s hometown of Vrhnika! We eventually got this song on Spotify on their 2023 album Live from Arena Stožice!

Music video: Kot srce ki kri poganja

English Interview (from 3:37 to 6:05): Joker Out discusses filming the music video

June 2017, Špil Liga:

One of the earliest performances for Joker Out was at Špil Liga, a competition for young bands in Slovenia. They won, and recorded their winning song, Omamljeno telo (intoxicated body) in November as part of the prize. 

Live (33m): Joker Out at Špil liga

Interview (5m): Reflections on Špil Liga in 2023 

c.2017/18, Bojan’s attempt at going solo:

The band took a hiatus c.2017/18, and Bojan considered going solo at that time, even working with a few producers. He eventually realised that he belonged with the band! Hear him tell the story:

Reel (1m 23s): A1 Vajb - Bojan’s fail

2019, A change up for the band:

The band began working with their current producer, Žare Pak, and their videographer Mark Pirc, in 2019 - both of whom have been referred to as the sixth member of the band. This led to a change in their sound and production quality, which culminated in ‘Gola’ ('Naked'), the first of their songs to be a big hit!

Music video: Gola

Zlata piščal ('Golden Flute') - Best New Artist 2019:

Joker Out won their first Zlata piščal award in 2019, for best new artist (one of many they’d go on to win!) This is a kind of Slovenian Grammy! Covid interrupted the proceedings, but you can see their interview for it here (3m 59s)-

Umazane misli, and a new member: 

During the Covid times, the band began recording their first studio album, 'Umazane misli' ('Dirty thoughts'), which was originally going to be released in March 2020 but was repeatedly delayed until October 2021. The first half was recorded with drummer Matic Kovačič, but the band felt they needed something extra and brought in Jure Maček to help write the arrangements. They loved him so much, he never left! 

Interview (from 10:40 to 11:36): Bojan talks briefly about Jure joining the band

COVID times, and Cvetličarna: 

The band had arranged to do two concerts at Cvetličarna, a very important venue in Slovenia and a big break for them. This was delayed several times due to Covid, but eventually managed to go ahead in October 2021 for the release of their first album. 

Video (1m 14s): Cvetličarna promotional video

Live (1h 28m): Joker Out at Cvetličarna

Interview (34m 55s): Bojan discusses Cvetličarna, its importance, and Covid

Umazane misli album launch: 

'Umazane misli' was extremely well received! The band would go on to win two more Zlata piščal awards, Newcomers of the Year in 2020 and Artist of the Year in 2021.

Interview (37m 08s): Umazane misli album presentation

An acting career for Bojan? 

Around the same time as 'Umazane misli' was released, Bojan began considering an acting career. He acted in two episodes of the series ‘Gospod Professor’ and in another series, which was eventually reworked as a film called ‘Kaj pa Ester’ and released in December 2023. He decided music was his passion though, and he wanted to fully focus on that.

September 2022, Križanke:

The band got straight to work writing their second album, 'Demoni' ('Demons'), and decided to present it in September 2022 at Križanke, another hugely important venue in Slovenia. This whole concert wasn’t recorded, but we have an interesting advertisement they did for it, an interview and a clip of one song live from Križanke!

After Križanke at the end of 2022, Martin Jurkovič, one of the founding members of the band, made the decision to leave to focus on his studies.

Video (2m 20s): Martin's departure

Thankfully, he was replaced by the wonderful Nace Jordan, who remains the bassist in the current lineup.

2023, Eurovision:

Joker Out were then internally selected to go to Eurovision 2023, and began recording their Eurovision song, 'Carpe Diem', in Hamburg in December 2022. To learn more, you can watch the Carpe Diem series, a documentary series which followed their entire journey. 

The first episode, recording Carpe Diem, can be found with subtitles in multiple languages by JokerOutSubs!

The band performed their song for the first time live on Misija Liverpool, a televised debut, on the 4th February 2023.

London era and Everybody’s Waiting: 

Joker Out spent the beginning of 2024 in London, where they wrote new music, did live cooking shows on Instagram and met the incredibly talented photographer, Damon Baker, who did a beautiful series of photoshoots with them. They also released their next English single, 'Everybody’s Waiting', in February. 

They sat down with us at JokerOutSubs to discuss all this on the 20th February!

Am I the only one who thinks Just Dance comics would be a really cool idea?

Maybe it’s the DC enthusiast in me (I’ve never read a single DC comic in my life), but I think Just Dance comics would be totally superstar.

And a lot of other notable video game franchises have comics! Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda (I think “manga” would be the more appropriate term), Sonic, and Splatoon (again, “manga” would be the more appropriate term but still a book) are a few examples. Given Just Dance’s popularity, why not give them comics?

It would also be an excuse for another interest of mine to have comics 😋 (some of my other interests include DC, Super Mario, Splatoon, Avatar: The Last Airbender/The Legend of Korra [I’m way more of an ATLA fan but I like TLOK too] if you were curious)

So yeah. Ubisoft. Just Dance comics. Make it happen.

Seijin no Hi 成人の日 - coming of age day

Celebrated since 1948, it's a public holiday for those who turned/are about to turn 20 (the age of becoming adult was lowered to 18 in 2018, but the age span for Seijin no Hi remains the same) in the timespan 2. April of the previous year to 1. April of the current year.

Of course, hanamachi workers also celebrate. Sometimes the ladies are wearing family heirloom furisode, or furisode owned by their Okiya.

In 2025, the date for Seijin no Hi is 13. January. Here are some pictures I've collected over the years. Enjoy!

In order: Sanko 三子 from Sapporo, 1990's Kikuno 菊乃 from Nara, 1992 Ichiteru 市照 from Kyoto (Pontocho), 2017 Tsukushi つくし from Tokyo (Mukojima), 2019 (work Furisode) Ichina いち菜 from Tokyo (Kagurazaka), 2021 Kanofuji 佳乃藤 from Akita, ca. 2022 Chizuru 千��� from Osaka (Nanchi), 2023 Iroha いろ羽 from Akita, 2024 Maiko 舞衣子 from Niigata, 2024 (work Furisode) Kotono 古都乃 from Aizuwakamatsu, 2025 (work Furisode) Apart from Tsukushi, all pictures have originally been published on instagram. Source links for Ichiteru and Chizuru are dead, Kanofuji's and Kotono's pictures have been released as instagram stories and are therefore no longer available. Tsukushi's picture was from Futaba's Facebook I presume. But without Facebook account, browsing possibilities are limited.

Fun little possible headcanon I just thought of: Whenever people try to swear or curse in the Danceverse (that’s what their universe is called, right?), I headcanon that the curse words and swear words are censored, like how swear and curse words are censored in the actual songs of the Danceverse.

Again, it’s only a possible headcanon. I’m not sure if I’m actually going with this headcanon, I just thought it would be a fun headcanon idea.
