Festival Omladina
Festival Omladina (English: ''Youth Festival''), also known as Omladinski Festival, is a music festival held in Subotica, Serbia. The festival was founded in 1961 as a competition of young composers of popular music. Their compositions were initially performed by pop singers, but soon the performers of competing compositions became rock bands. In the 1970s, the non-competitive part, featuring established rock acts, was added to the program, and in the 1980s the festival became a competition of young rock bands. During the years, some of the most notable acts of the Yugoslav pop and rock scene performed on the festival. In 1990, at the beginning of the breakup of Yugoslavia, the festival ceased to exist.

Lutka Sa Naslovne Strane
"Lutka sa naslovne strane" ("Front Cover Babe") is the debut single from the influential Serbian and former Yugoslav rock band Riblja Čorba. The song, a hard rock ballad about a fame-hungry model, was originally written during the time Riblja Čorba leader Bora Đorđević was a member of the acoustic rock band Suncokret. The song led to a clash between Đorđević and other members, which caused Đorđević to leave Suncokret and join Rani Mraz. After only three months spent in Rani Mraz, Đorđević left the band and with the members of the band SOS formed Riblja Čorba, which released "Lutka sa naslovne strane" as their debut single. On the song recording jazz trumpeter Stjepko Gut played the piano. The song was performed by Đorđević and Arsen Dedić on the live album ''Arsen & Bora Čorba Unplugged `87''. In 2006 the song was ranked #12 on the B92 Top 100 Domestic Songs list.

Doktor Spira I Ljudska Bića
Doktor Spira i Ljudska Bića ( sr-cyr, Доктор Спира и Људска Бића; trans. ''Doctor Spira and the Human Beings'') were a Serbian new wave/alternative rock band from Belgrade. They were a prominent act of the Yugoslav new wave scene. Formed in the late 1970s by Dušan Mihajlović "Spira" (acoustic guitar, vocals), who had already gained prominence on the Yugoslav acoustic rock scene, Doktor Spira i Ljudska Bića were a part of the Yugoslav new wave scene. Despite Spirić's cult status on the Belgrade scene, ''Dijagnoza'' was refused by major Yugoslav record labels, so Mihajlović self-released the album in 1981. Doktor Spira i Ljudska Bića disbanded in 1985. A year later, the band's debut album was reissued by PGP-RTB, and in 1987 Mihajlović recorded another album, which remained unreleased until 2007. In 2007, the band's debut and previously unreleased second studio album were released together on the compilation album ''Arheološki artefakti tehnofilskih ...

Traditional Music
Folk music is a music genre that includes traditional folk music and the contemporary genre that evolved from the former during the 20th-century folk revival. Some types of folk music may be called world music. Traditional folk music has been defined in several ways: as music transmitted orally, music with unknown composers, music that is played on traditional instruments, music about cultural or national identity, music that changes between generations (folk process), music associated with a people's folklore, or music performed by custom over a long period of time. It has been contrasted with commercial and classical styles. The term originated in the 19th century, but folk music extends beyond that. Starting in the mid-20th century, a new form of popular folk music evolved from traditional folk music. This process and period is called the (second) folk revival and reached a zenith in the 1960s. This form of music is sometimes called contemporary folk music or folk re ...
