Hi guys,

currently I’m creating a Spotify Playlist with Neo Folk songs or generally modern songs that have a relation to the culture from different Balkan countries.

Present your country in the best light possible [if it’s in your interest ;)] and tell me good songs I could add to the playlist.

Here’s the playlist link, if you want to know: [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4VmYo94XNgP3W8L7SgoVee?si=8e056820e8f84d9a](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4VmYo94XNgP3W8L7SgoVee?si=8e056820e8f84d9a)

Thanks for your help!

    [Veja](https://veja.bandcamp.com/?from=search&search_item_id=2416952517&search_item_type=b&search_match_part=%3F&search_page_id=2001042098&search_page_no=1&search_rank=2&search_sig=f332851e32bab8df04061ebff4943c9c)

    [Cinkuši](http://www.cinkusi.hr/)

    [Lado Electro](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC011YLK5OBfobA_eE3pfjrg)

    [Afion](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzOAP4WnNmj3p6qUQ4hnj2w/featured) – look for their older work, too. They perform Croatian songs, as well as Macedonian and Bosnian sevdah.

    Edit: Early [Putokazi](https://www.youtube.com/user/THESIGNPOSTS/videos) did some new-agey folk. E.g [Tarajčica](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpUtu5EaFvs) i [Naranča](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRQqCpWAnKI).

    Edit 2: [Legen](https://www.discogs.com/artist/1053849-Legen) and [Kries](https://www.discogs.com/artist/1439652-Kries) come to mind, too.

  7. i would suggest you to contact host of the Izvorišta show on radio student. Here is the [link](http://www.radiostudent.hr/izvorista/) where you can find recorded podcasts of the show. It includes music from all over the world but special emphasis should be given to local and regional artists

  13. You mean stuff influenced by folk songs or neofolk? There are no neofolk bands in Croatia afaik but Death in June had a fetish for Croatia and Croatian neonazis.

    If you mean the first bit, I really like this song – [Zima](https://youtu.be/nOja6MY3QtE). Also anything by Veja.
