ZARŠ Records release compilation of Slovenian electronic music

ZARŠ Records release compilation of Slovenian electronic music

Like plucking a blade from the world’s collective grasslands: that’s the minimal dent we’re making whenever we discover a new artist, and it might actually be a source of music-lover depression were it not for the supremely enjoyable process. An additional lifetime still wouldn’t allow us to listen to all of the music in the world without us enduring an obscene amount of unkempt body hair, so our best option, given the limited amount of time that we have, is to consciously enter a permanent state of denial! Genres might exist that I’m not even acquainted with, but who’s to say that I won’t totally resolve this shortcoming after a marathon month of music discovery? Anyone who claims my inability clearly doesn’t appreciate how fast I can click.

Electronic music from Slovenia? Now there’s a melodic arena to which most of us could use an introduction, and thankfully a crew from Slovenia’s Radio Študent and its associated record label ZARŠ recently released a relevant compilation that does most of the work for us. Ctrl N: Poglavje slovenske elektronike features 17 tracks of varied and experimental electronic music, and none of the artist monikers happen to ring a personal bell. But I’m inclined to remember after a listen, as at least one track bangz to the point of embarrassment over my Western assimilation.

The compilation itself is available now for purchasable download, with a vinyl version also available. Thanks to Radio Študent’s Dino Lalić, Božidar Plesnik, Andrej Tomažin, Jaka Špiler, Žiga Pucelj, Tilen Ločniškar, Anže Zorman, and Christian Kopač for doing the artistic exposing.
