History
At the outset its programme was primarily concerned with different kinds of "otherness in music": alternative rock, "rock in opposition", adventurous new jazz, improvised music and experimental music, as well as rediscovered Slovene folk music. Druga godba, its juicy name could be translated and written as "that other muzik", was the first festival in the former Yugoslavia to introduce popular musics and styles from the Third World, including reggae and various styles of African music. Gradually also other genres of ethnic music from both European and non-European cultural surroundings were included. Thus the festival was a pioneer in the region in presenting representatives of African, Arab, Latino popular music, even before the actual European "boom" of so-called "world music". The legendary WOMAD festival developed simultaneously, and during the 1980s both festivals cooperated creatively.
In the 1990s, when Slovene concerts and festivals became wider in scope, primarily in the field of rock and jazz, the programme of the Druga godba Festival focused on "world music" and ethno music, with other genres remaining present but not as wide in their scope (still, the first foreign hip hop concert in Slovenia, The Roots, was set up here). Besides its basic programme, Druga godba Festival has offered various accompanying events, including street animations and concerts, music workshops, events for children, exhibitions, film screenings and lectures.
The Roots, guests of Druga godba Festival in 1995, were supposedly the first foreign hip hop band performing in Slovenia
