-



Lets kick it off with Lelee which were performing at Klubski maraton 2020. The trio consists of Jelena Rusjan on bass, drummer Jan Kmet and vocalist Damjan Manevski. Their music is a kind of indie garage rock with an urban balkan pathos stemming from the concrete playgrounds of the grey brutalistic districts, so common to former Yugoslav nations. They just released their first album called Čuka bije pumpa on Moonlee Records.

Following Lelee you have been listening to the track Modem by Nulla. Nulla is a young, up and coming producer from Ljubljana. She recently released her debut which was a split EP she did with with another producer dvidevat. The EP titled 068/078-1 was released on the 11th of May on the label Kamizdat. It features 5 of her tracks which are mostly very electro oriented, but also drawing from the british techno lineage.

To follow up with some more electronic music we will also be showcasing the compilation Senzorama vol 1. It features 20 artists all coming from their own idiosyncrasies in the sound but all of them connected through experimentation and exploration of ambiental sounds. The compilation came out as a result of an anniversary of its namesake show on Radio Študent. It was released on the 28th of May on ZARŠ Records, a record label also run by Radio Študent. We will now only play one track called Sakura by Lip Rouge.

To stay on the topic of Radio Študent’s own music production we also want to bring to your attention the latest release from ZARŠ Records. The song you just heard is called Unity, by trio Psihedelavci. The group consists of the vocalist Nastja Janežkovič, guitarist Martin Ukmar and drummer Samo Pavlica - Linč. All three of them are in their own right prolific artists in the regional alternative rock scene. zZemljoples is the name of this album that came out on the 11th of June. It features 6 tracks that vary in sound from a power trio to more art or noise rock arrangements and poetically critical lyrics.

The last project featured in this edition of the show is Klubski maraton 2021. It was already mentioned in the previous edition we did, however just to refresh your memories it’s a regional concert and promotion tour organized by Radio Študent every year for 6 chosen artists. From this year’s roster we will feature tracks by the urban hiphop project xm1, hardcore punk group Opran Možgan and a contemporary jazz trio birds of unknown. The latter came together through music studies and are weaving a salon oriented approach in their performances with guitar, saxophone and vocals. The tracks are deeply embedded with lush jazz harmonies, crisp vocals and different genre influences. You will hear their track called To Find a Place.

The last two songs you heard were called bele luči by the project xm1 and Stroj by Opran možgan. With that we conclude today’s show.
