Bregove dere is a Slovenian acoustic-organic band that began as Matjaž’s solo project and later grew into a five-piece with guitar, bass, drums, violin, and more. Their music blends intimate acoustic textures with progressive, immersive soundscapes—an evolving force that breathes slowly yet powerfully. Active on the Slovenian underground scene, they gained wider recognition through Radio Študent’s Klubski Maraton and are praised for their evocative, atmospheric live performances.

Breka Fest was launched in 2008 in the village of Srednja Bistrica as the only festival of its kind in Prekmurje, the northeast region of Slovenia. It primarily features many different strands of metal and HC, as well as a few rock or punk-oriented acts.

The original music of Brencl Banda stems from the artists’ fascination with the world’s folk heritage. It reflects a predominant Slavic spirit and conveys an impression of being an intrinsic part of its legacy, as if modelled on the music transcriptions of age-old folk tunes found abandoned in an attic. The Brencl Banda was formed in Bistrica ob Sotli, a Slovenian settlement known for its rich musical tradition. Although featuring perfectly ordinary instruments and vocals the band’s sound is completely original. On their Slavic wings they fly across different musical traditions, whose myriad beats and melodies fuse into one single voice to sing about happiness, sadness and timelessness.
