EMILJO A.C.

Emiljo A.C. is short for Emiljo Albert Cassagrande. While the name might lead you to believe he's a renaissance scholar, he was actually born only 17 years ago on the banks of river Drava in Slovenia. His story about how he got into making music seems to follow a familiar pattern in electronic music. Everything just unfolded a little earlier than with most. And it started with an unexpected gift... When he was 6 years old his friend gave him a hip hop album. He listened to it obsessively and soon got hooked on Wu Tang Clan, DJ Premier, Lord Finesse and other pioneering hip hop legends. Things evolved naturally and at the age of 12 he was already making beats of his own, partly drawing inspiration from a fellow Slovenian producer Gramatik, who was already making big waves around the global electronic music scene. Emiljo's brand of music was obviously influenced by the early hip hop he grew up on, but he's not shy about also including contemporary variations of electro hip hop and mix them with those early cut'n'paste techniques. His beats are starting to become more and more intricate as his musical knowledge expands. And besides that, he has another important thing going for him - time is certainly on his side.

NAJI 

Although he is only 22, this extraordinary rap talent from Iran has been gathering his experiences on several underground parties in his homeland.

He rhymes in his native Farsi, and his lyrics speak critically about the society and about the life of Iranian youth that is not allowed to like modern music in public. Although he has a lot of own songs, his performance on Mladina stage will be his first official concert.

MITJA MIKLIČ

The young DJ talent from Koper has been producing music for 5 years although he is only 17. He started with hip-hop, tried rapping to own songs with his own lyrics. His style turned into a mix of different genres like hip-hop, glitch hop and dubstep. After he is done with high school, he wants to study at SAE Institute in Ljubljana and become a music producer working with sound editing and producing his own music. One of his wishes is to have his own label. He is collaborating with the organisation TRITE that organizes events like Electric Boiler Room.

SCOTTSMVNSION

Michel Scott better known by his stage name scottsmvnsion (pronounced Scott´s Mansion) is a Slovenian trillwave/trap/rap artist. In late 2015 he has released his first EP titled ˝SHADOWS˝. With this project his name and his logo really started to get some buzz around his country. Live performances, unique music videos, style and charisma... These are just few of many things that really separates and puts his art in a different lane from others. On May 5th 2016 scottsmvnsion released another EP ˝Trill Lands: Darkest light project˝ with more aggressive sound and message to non-believers that he really got what it takes to remember him and his music. With such devotion, there is no doubt that his future is filled with greatness.

AMO

Mišel Ristov, better known by his stage name Amo often prolonged to Amo Socialec, is a Slovenian rapper, writer, actor and an entrepreneur from Ptuj, Slovenia. Amo was raised mostly in the Maribor area, but constantly moved in various locations throughout the country.

In 2009, Amo entered the National Freestyle Battle Championship and placed second. In the final he lost to the unbeaten two-time champion, N'toko. He released his street album titled 'Horizont' the following year. He had several successful battle appearances afterwards, winning multiple competitions in the battle circuit around the Country. In 2012 he was one of the 12 emcees to be signed to the first Slovenian hip hop label, Wudisban Records. Despite that, he would later go on to compete and win the National Championship in 2013, defeating the former freestyle champion, Unknown in the final.

LANG
