Kako se pojavila Strahinjića Bana? Sećam se još uvek dobro vremena’ 89. kada se neko otiskuje recimo u šetnju. Od tamo Dositejeve, Francuske do Kalemegdana. Ide tako pod noćnim krošnjama, znači samo na sredini ulice postoji samo red svetiljki, parkirani automobili, tišina je. Čuje se ponegde lavež, ponegde se čuje televizor, i u takvoj tišini znači potpuno jedna divna meditativna šetnja, pločnik svetluca ako je kiša. Dođe se do parka. Tu se napravi neki krug i vrati se kući. Negde pred ponoć to je bila jedna od najprijatnijih šetnji. Druga veoma prijatna šetnja bi mogla biti recimo Bulevarom revolucije ili bilo kojom od tih dugačkih ulica noću. To je onaj trenutak kad ne želiš ni na šta posebno da misliš a želiš da se fokusiraš ipak na sve… Želiš neki dodir s gradom ali da on ne bude preterano intenzivan. I već ‘93. i danas tu su razni Kandahari, razni orijentalni sportski prenosi, ritmovi ovakvi, mašine nafurane... to rad motora... Šta reći?

How did Strahinjica Bana street come into being…I remember those times well…it was ’89…When somebody, for example, went for a walk, let’s say from Dositejeva street, along Francuska street to Kalemegdan Fortress, they walked by night beneath the treetops, and there were only rows of street lanterns and parked cars, so it was very quiet…you could possibly hear a dog barking, or a TV, so it was a real meditative walk, the pavement sparkled if it was raining…then you reached the park, you made a round and went back home. Around midnight, it was one of the most pleasant walks…a very long and pleasant walk could be, let’s say along Bulevar revolucije, or along any of these longer streets by night…It was one of those moments when you were reluctant to think about anything, but still wanted to focus on everything…you wanted to be connected to the city, but not too intensively. And, from ’93, and still today, there have been various Kandahar’s, different oriental sport broadcasting, some rhythms, fancy cars…and engine sounds…what more is to be said?
