Ethnographic Research into the Alternative Music Scene in Bratislava

· · Musicologica 1/2015, Rock Pop Jazz

This paper is dedicated to the ethnographic research into the alternative music scene in Bratislava, conducted during November and December 2014. For our observations, we selected two music clubs in Bratislava (Slovakia) that have continually promoted alternative bands: the Majestic Music Club and the British Rock Stars Club. The ethnographic research focused on three performances: the concert of Wayne Hussey in the British Rock Stars Club, and the performances of Lamb and Laibach in the Majestic Music Club. The general goal for the observations was to better understand the alternative or indie music culture. The principal method was an analysis of the relationship or communication between the audiences and the musicians as a process of both mutual subjective reactions and reflections.
