Eveline Novakovic

Eveline Novakovic (née Fischer and credited as such in her Mario-relevant works) is a British video game music composer and sound engineer formerly employed by Rareware. Hired by Rare in 1993 Her first work was composing part of the Donkey Kong Country soundtrack, contributing seven tracks to the game. In composing her tracks for Donkey Kong Country. Nokavovic sought to give the game's level "a sense of place and momentum" and drew inspiration from the soundtrack of feature films, including the work of composers such as.

As David Wise was already busy on the ultimately-unreleased Super Nintendo Entertainment System game Project Dream, Eveline Nokavovic was called on to compose the majority of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, which wound up being replaced in the game's Game Boy Advance port due to difficulties converting it to the system's sound chip. As she was aware of the success of previous installments in the series and the popularity and iconic nature of David Wise's music, Eveline Nokavovic decided to rethink her reinvent her approach to composition. To that end, she settled on the theme of "[wanting to have] the player to feel that both the music and sound were working in tandem." and introduce more musical genres to the soundtrack. She would also work on converting her own compositions to the Game Boy's sound chip for the game's handheld counterpart Donkey Kong Land III, a process which proved to be more challenging than previous Donkey Kong Land games due to the greater complexity of the soundtrack.

Beside composing, Novakovic also portrayed Pipsy in Diddy Kong Racing, Tiny Kong in Donkey Kong 64, and Dixie Kong in the Game Boy Advance version of Donkey Kong Country 2 and Donkey Kong Country 3. The latter two roles were eventually taken over by Kahoru Sasajima. In addition to her work in the Donkey Kong series, she has contributed to other Rareware productions, such as voicing Joanna Dark, the protagonist of Perfect Dark.

In 2007, she left Rare and retired from the video game industry, citing long hours and having recently become a mother among other reasons.
