Boris Bele (born 18 April 1949) is a Slovenian and Yugoslav musician, songwriter and music producer, best known as guitarist and vocalist of the popular rock band Buldožer.
Rising to prominence on the Yugoslav rock scene in early 1970s as the leader of the group Sedem Svetlobnih Let, Bele gained nationwide popularity as vocalist and guitarist of the avant-rock band Buldožer. Bele was one of two mainstay members of Buldožer throughout the group's career, the other being keyboardist Borut Činč. After the band's original vocalist Marko Brecelj left the band in 1979, Bele took over the role of Buldožer lead vocalist. With Buldožer Bele has recorded six studio albums and a live album during the group's original 1975–1983 run, and one more studio album after the group reunited in the 1990s. Additionally, he has recorded one studio album with his band Duhovi.
In addition to producing most of Buldožer albums, Bele has worked as producer with Lačni Franz, Film, Elvis J. Kurtović & His Meteors, Sokoli, Peter Lovšin and Don Mentony Band. He was an editor for the independent record label Helidon, signing a number of prominent Yugoslav acts for the label.
