Pravoslavci (Serbian Cyrillic: Православци, lit. "Orthodoxy") is the fourth studio album and second war album by Serb singer Lepi Mića. It is also the first release by SuperTon and one of three cassettes produced to coincide with the VHS release.

Background

Announcement at end of Najava programa Zelene TV
"... a message for lovers of Serb folk music. Channel „S” and „Superton” from Belgrade prepared material for a new cassette by „Lepi Mića” with 8 new Serb songs. The cassette will appear on the domestic market these days. For abroad we offer the rights to publish audio and video cassettes. All information on the phone numbers:" (Circa early 1993)

In 1993, Diskos was in chaos, with chances of another album being produced at the studio very slim. Cvetin would offer to help those who previously published under Diskos such as Gedža and Lepi Mića and established his recording studio, SuperTon as a production studio. As a result, staff who helped with Republiko Srpska would carry over to this new project and Goran Radinović, who had worked with Cvetin under his group, Genijalci CT would follow suit. SuperTon would co-produce the album with S Kanal (who had already created music videos for Lepi Mića before) and would create more music videos and compile them in a VHS titled Srbima za sva vremena later in the year.

Release

Pravoslavci was released some time in 1993. Due to the early nature of SuperTon, the cassettes are noted as in inconsistent and/or poor quality. Some prints of the album would have a full-colored background, with others lacking color on the background and name. It is assumed that the colored version came first, with the more monotone one rereleasing sometime later as with Puče puška na sred Semberije. While the songs have surfaced on the internet in present day, they are in poor quality, suggesting that the master is currently lost.

The exact release date is unknown but should be around February or March 1993.
