He has had his musical debut back in 1989 where he performed together with Slave Keleshovski ( the same year when he was declared as the best Dj in former Yugoslavia) at Bitola..s discotheque ,,Turist,,
The same year under the influence of acid house music, the new musical wave and rave culture which came from Britain on 30.11.1989 Ilija organized the first ,,Techno,, party in Macedonia at the nightclub ,,Senator,, in Bitola.
Soon afterwards he began working on his own music and on 15.11.1991 he brings out the first electronic track in Maceodonia known as ,, Posledniot Titov tanc,, under the name Dr. Acid. This track has provoked a lot of attention and contra version because it contains parts of Josip Broz Tito..s speeches built in the music. Next year he changes his name to XAVIER ACID and takes place on the first ,,Techno Rave Festival,, in Macedonia – MNT(Skopje) on 18.08.1992 together with On Trance (Skopje) and Trycho 909 (Skopje), in organization of Dj Kesma(Skopje-Ljubljana).
