FV Music is Slovenia's oldest independent label and promoter of alternative music. It was established in 1985 by musicians from the group Borghesia and a circle of music fans and activists that had previously run Disco FV, the first punk-alternative club in Ljubljana. For several years the only Yugoslav independent label, FV was born out of necessity to satisfy the creative impulses of its founding members.
Today it is the agency for promoting and booking alternative and garage rock'n'roll bands run by Monika Skaberne, a member of the original FV group. It has a strong network of relationships with clubs and local promoters in Slovenia and other ex-Yugoslavian countries, a number of long-standing contacts with European and American agencies, and a roster of some of the most exciting and popular R'n'R bands in Slovenia and Croatia – including KUD Idijoti, Thunderbabies, and Bambi Molesters.

prof. dr. Marija Bergamo, Mantuani Award winner, 2010
The Mantuani Award, named after one of the first Slovene musicologists, Josip Mantuani (1860–1933), has been bestowed by the Slovene Musicological Society since 2004 for exceptional contributions in the field of musicology and can be given to any musicologist active in Slovenia. The award is bestowed every second year.
The award consists of two documents: the Mantuani Award is given for the life achievements in the field of musicology and the Mantuani Recognition is given for exceptional achievements. The executive board names the expert commission which selects the winners among the written proposals.
Till now the Mantuani Award has been given to Andrej Rijavec (2004), Primož Kuret (2006), Jože Sivec (2008), and Marija Bergamo (2010), and the Mantuani Recognition has been given to Gregor Pompe (2006).
