Musical career
Limunovo Drvo and Šarlo Akrobata
With schoolmate Gagi Mihajlović, Mladenović formed a band called Limunovo Drvo (Lemon Tree) that dabbled in melodic hard rock. The group changed lineups frequently, displaying a pretty limited creative potential until the arrival of bassist Dušan "Koja" Kojić and drummer Ivan "Vd" Vdović. Soon afterwards, they adopted a new musical direction (new wave) and changed the name to Šarlo Akrobata. During this time Milan was musically very much fond of and inspired by Elvis Costello, Paul Weller, and Andy Partridge of XTC.
Šarlo Akrobata released only one album, Bistriji ili tuplji čovek biva kad... in July 1981 and broke up soon afterward due to creative differences between Milan and Koja. The record is considered to be one of the best and most important albums of the Yugoslav new wave music scene.[who?]
