Crocy's musical life goes back to 1992, when he was attending musical school in his hometown. He played the accordion for seven years and traveled through different genres of music, until he borrowed his first techno-styled CD from a friend. This is where his journey into electronic beats started. After a couple of nights out clubbing, he wanted to be a Dee Jay. He bought his first set of turntables in the end of year 2000 and started to play house music. His first performance was on his friend s birthday party, where he proved that he was born for this job. A Few months passed and he got invited to spin at a pool party organized by the students organization in his hometown in the summer of 2001. The crowd loved him so more gigs followed immediately. He became the resident of a small club called As, where his fan club started to grow. Crocy soon started to appear as a weekly guest at Club Casablanca alongside their residents and famous European DJs on its bigger venues. He has been a guest in a number of clubs all over Slovenia.

Years 2002 & 2003 were very successful for him. In year 2002 he became the youngest member of E-Modulation Records and also got residency on their influential events called HOMEBASE at Club Casablanca Celje. In year 2003 he took part in two well attended DJ contests. On the tournament for The BEST NEWCOMER DJ 2003, organized by Psilon-Empire & Final Flash Association he got into the finals. A Few months passed and he applied for the contest for THE BEST DJ OF THE SUMMER 2003, organized by BeBe Agency and he won! He impressed the headmapsilon.orgster of Psilon-Empire Party Organisation and booking agency, so he got an offer to be a Psilon-Empire DJ, and he accepted it. More gigs followed. He got invitations for playing from lots of party organisations all over Slovenia like Space Group, Explicit Musick, Starlight, Analogica, Party Sounds, Exforium Group...

Crocy soon started getting media support so he gave a few interviews to a few newspapers and magazines. He also gave an interview for a number of radio stations and some television stations, where his music was the background for whole show called PoP Corn, the guest of which was at that occasion the most popular Slovenian rock group Siddharta. He is into vocal and funky House but lately more into progressive sounds, often throwing some older hit records in his sets just to put the crowd on their feet.

In 2004 Crocy discovered his production side and paying more attention on that than playing out in clubs. Being in studio and developing his own sound was just more important for him. But that doesn't mean that Crocy didn't play at all. People had privilege to hear him only at special and chosen venues as well as in year 2005 which was more like a school year for him. Trough his production music years he started some collabs with his friend producers too. To mention, one is project called Dual Crime with Defodelic who released on EDM Digital. Their first track is called Shouldaya and is currently waiting to get signed.

20 years old Crocy has now quite a lot of his own tracks and remixes. Crocy's first remix release was released on Dub Coast Records based in San Francisco USA, in June 2006. Crocy's remix for sunday got support from Anthony Pappa, Hernan Cattaneo, Martin Garcia, G-Pal, Christian Cambas, Guillaume Nyckess, Jason Jollins and DJ Joop. Crocy, in collaboration with Iggy Costo from NRG-House, has made a remix for a group called KISSIK which is to be released on a major record label from Sarajevo till the end of this year.
