The SIGIC databases of the SIGIC, Slovene Music Information Centre have been online since 2005. In 2010 the website was upgraded, and since 2011 also features an online magazine Odzven.si. The website features news, a database of musicians and music groups of various musical genres, music institutions and musical works, useful addresses and links, calls, competitions and announcements, and a calendar of events.
The purpose of the information centre is to create a database of music of all genres, time periods, musicians, musical institutions and non-profit musical organisations, to promote Slovene music and musicians, to organise professional consultations, meetings and symposia and to engage in business cooperation with all creators of Slovene musical life.

An annual concert of the Big Band KK in Krško, 2012
Although Big Band KK has existed since the eighties (and was formerly know as Big Band Krško), it was practically and formally established in 1994, when Aleš Suša took over as the band's leader and conductor. Playing various kinds of music, from swing and Latin to fusion and jazz-rock, the band has long been one of the better non-professional big bands in the region and a number of successful instrumentalists have embarked from under its wings. Still, the band's musical high point was the 2013 release of its first album titled Depeched, on which it present covers of seven Depeche Mode songs. The album has garnered an unexpectedly positive response from critics and listeners, which led to the band's invitation to play on the festival Jazz Montreux, a rare feat for Slovene musicians.
