Independent Front Rock label was founded at the end of 80s by Dušan Hedl, organiser, activist and member of the now veteran band Center za dehumanizacijo (CZD) from Maribor and the region of Štajerska. Since then numerous young bands and musical artists have made their public début on the Front Rock label. In 1999 the label was integrated into the broader music publishing programme of a new cultural NGO for art production and publishing, Subkulturni azil Maribor.

History and releases

The label has thus far featured all the music created by Center za dehumanizacijo (CZD) (13 recordings) and about 15 recordings by other bands or compilations, including Polska malca, Pure laine, Delaware, IN4S, Schnele fee - The MI, Pridigarji, Scuffy dogs, Dr Zero, Hoću? Neču! (Serbia), and Americal MDC. Some LPs and CDs are sought-after curiosities, both at home and abroad. Front Rock's series of compilation recordings from the No Border Jam Festival represents an important promotional tool for contemporary rock. Its current programme features primarily ground-breaking first recordings of talented and skilful musicians. The interdisciplinary field has been explored through a CD series Rokerji pojejo pesnike ('Poets Sung By Rockers') conceived by Subkulturni azil and published within the MKC Maribor Youth Culture Centre. Subkulturni azil releases include: Xenia Jus, KvinTon, Roma Ramadan, Tamburaši iz Cirkulan and Electric Tea. Subkulturni azil - Front Rock recordings and sound editing are mostly done at the Studio at the Border, which presents a platform and a stimulus for local and international creative co-operation and networking in the field of music.
