History

The album itself was announced through a promotional single titled "Otkrit ċu ti tajnu" in August, 2007. As with his previous works such as Sredinom and Burek the album includes several collaborations with local and regional arists.

In an interview with Maxi Magazin Dino stated that the decision to release the promotional single was made to ease the burden of dealing with over twenty songs he is currently working on and knowing that some of them will never be released. In the same interview he stated that he has enough material for a dual CD but that "life is too short for dual CD's."

The song "Otkrit ċu ti tajnu" can be downloaded by visiting the BH Telecom Web site.

On April 27th, 2008 Dino Merlin signed a distribution contract with Croatia Records for promotion of his new album titled Ispočetka (translation: From the Beginning).

Dino's official site also announced a concert date to coincide with the promotion of his new album "Ispočetka." The concert will take place at the Koševo stadium on July 19th, 2008.

The second single, titled "Dabogda" was released May 29th 2008 to all regional radio and TV stations.
