Entwined in Afro-Cuban rhythms, ballrooms were shakin', swayin' and swingin', gathering musicians who were heavily into jazz bands and orchestras, most notably in Ljubljana, Zagreb, and Belgrade, Yugoslavia. Jazz could be heard on the streets of Split way back in 1919 when dancing became a symbol of freedom. Radio was the most loved household item, newest sheet music was in demand and collecting records was hip like today. In the aftermath of Second World War, jazz went underground but little by little, things changed and Ella, Satchmo, Dizzy and Miles came to visit, among others. Music festivals shaped the music for entertainment and variety of popular styles showed influences from all over the world. In the early sixties, one particular rhythm crashed on the coast of the Adriatic Sea: the rhythm of bossa nova.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the whirlwind of various musical styles, Latin American music still played important part of the scene in the early sixties Yugoslavia. Beguine, tango, rhumba, samba, calypso, mambo and cha-cha-cha all found their place on the festivals inspired by famous Sanremo, festival of Italian popular song that largely shaped the musical taste of Europe. It was the era of instrumental rock, R \u0026amp; B and rock'n'roll - sounds of \"imperialist America\" now played freely on imported and hand-made electric guitars. While dancing halls had been turning into concert venues, bossa nova has come! Eydie Gorme with Blame It on the Bossa Nova and Paul Anka with Eso Besso (That Kiss!) tried to make them learn some new dance moves but it was Joao Gilberto's gentle singing and his new way of playing samba songs, along with Tom Jobim's modern dissonant harmonies and poetry of Vinicius de Moraes that created the magic. When American alto saxophonist and flautist Bud Shank visited Zagreb and Ljubljana in 1963 (with Boško Petrović in his quintet) \"it was the first time we heard bossa nova!\" remembers Stjepan Braco Fučkar. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJugoton, the biggest record company in Yugoslavia, released a 4-track EP Bossa Nova by Bogdan Dimitrijević and his ensemble that same year (1963). While not being fully accepted or understood completely, the archives of Jugoton reveal to us various interpretations of this new trend from their vast catalogue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompiled by Leo Hekman, also known as DJ D-Gree.  — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/everland-music.bandcamp.com\/album\/jugoton-bossa-nova-brazilian-wave-in-yugoslavia-1963-1983\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eLabel\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" data-testid=\"embed-iframe\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/playlist\/71ZhHDSx5F48YGbW2KYxPP?utm_source=generator\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVinyl \/\/ Tracklist\u003cbr\u003eA1 Arsen Dedić–    Onaj Dan\u003cbr\u003eA2 Zdenka Vučković– Bosonoga\u003cbr\u003eA3 Bogdan Dimitrijević–    O Barquinho\u003cbr\u003eA4 Nino Robić– Jedna Nota (Samba De Uma Nota Só)\u003cbr\u003eA5 Milan Bačić–    Hō-bá-lá-lá\u003cbr\u003eB1 Beti Jurković– Ljuljačka\u003cbr\u003eB2 Elda Viler– Senca Tvojega Nasmeha (The Shadow Of Your Smile)\u003cbr\u003eB3 Arsen Dedić–    Često Te Sretnem\u003cbr\u003eB4 Bogdan Dimitrijević–    Hershey Bar\u003cbr\u003eB5 Zdenka Vučković– Izgubljeno (Desafinado)\u003cbr\u003eC1 Drago Diklić– Moja Draga\u003cbr\u003eC2 Krunoslav Kićo Slabinac– Tko Si Ti\u003cbr\u003eC3 Plesni Orkestar RTV Zagreb– Plava Krizantema\u003cbr\u003eC4 Gabi Novak, Radojka Šverko–    Za Mene Je Sreća (Samba Da Rosa)\u003cbr\u003eC5 Dubrovački Trubaduri– Ljuven Zov\u003cbr\u003eD1 Vikica Brešer– Sunčano Ljeto\u003cbr\u003eD2 Drago Diklić– Nitko Na Svijetu\u003cbr\u003eD3 Višnja Korbar– Subotnje Veče\u003cbr\u003eD4 Arsen Dedić–    Večeras\u003cbr\u003eD5 Stjepan \"Jimmy\" Stanić, Glenn Rich Orchestra– The Girl From Ipanema\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e↓\u003cbr\u003eLabel: The Everland Music Group\u003cbr\u003eFormat: 2 x Vinyl, Compilation\u003cbr\u003eReleased: 2025\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Jazz, Latin\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Bossanova\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile under: Latin Influenced\u003cbr\u003e⦿\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Everland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45863671333022,"sku":"710473185226","price":55.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/files\/a_e534dace-1e05-46d7-9027-484b6f2dfecd.jpg?v=1754828975","url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/products\/various-artists-jugoton-bossa-nova-brazilian-wave-in-yugoslavia-1963-1983","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
