3rei Sud Est is comprised of three Romanian singers: Viorel Sipos, Laurenţiu Duţă and Mihai Budeanu. They first started collaborating in 1993, when Laurenţiu Duţă performed at the Mamaia Festival as a solo singer and the other two provided choreography and back-up dancing.
3rei Sud Est's 1997 debut Ai plecat, which defined their early trademark sound, became an instant success. This brand of electronic dance music came to influence a series of other young artists from the Romanian scene such as Andre, Animal X and Cristiana Răduţă. Their most successful is Amintirile (The Memories). Mihai Budeanu also released a solo album outside of the 3SE project.
