Naranča - Croatian Song

[@jasamkojajesam6108]

I love how diverse Croatia is when it comes to music. We have mediterranean style, balkan style and slovenian/slavic too.

[@PeoplecallmeLucifer]

Well not so weird when you look at history. every part of Croatia was under different influence at one point of history so traditions became different, cousin is the same, I'd say even the mentality of the people differs greatly depending on the region and the dialects can be completely unintelligible mostly due to loan words(i know 4 words for SOCKS all from just within my region).

[@saniodigitalart691]

Omg you did Naranča! The origins of the song are from a part of Croatia where I am from, the Kvarner Bay. The song is actually an old song older women used to chant and later the band from my hometown (Rijeka, capital of Kvarner) made a nrw version and made it popular. I am so happy to hear your version and thank you, it is amazing! Great job!!! 🤩

Thanks for posting a Croatian song! What you said about croatian music is correct, however Croatian music from the interior, especially from Bosnia and Hercegovina is much more "Balkanic" in style than music from Dalmatia or Slavonia, and similar to that of Serbia Bulgaria etc.

[@lolzlolz8119]

Does this mean we are getting more balkan stuff cause this one was good

[@faryafaraji]

Definitely! My few next folk covers are all going to be from the Slavic world so there's gonna be the Balkans in there for sure

[@88kjk75]

Croatian guy here, great cover. The dialect of the song isn't archaic, people here can understand it, it's just really regional, also it's from northwestern Croatia not Dalmatia. As for traditional Croatian music, and again not just Dalmatia but all of the country, it entierly rooted in Western music and Balkan-style music can be found only east of Croatia, starting with Bosnia and going further.

[@faryafaraji]

Thanks for the info, it was really hard finding any sources in English!

[@88kjk75]

No problem my friend, keep up the good work.

[@milekarlica9464]

Another Croatian here, and yet I will disagree with my compatriot about musical roots of "entirety" of Croatian music. It really depends from region to region. Some regions preserved very indigenous and archaic music styles of ancient Balkans - like Lika, Kordun, inner Dalmatia and area around Dubrovnik and have a lot in common with some music styles in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and parts of Serbia. Also there is not one Balkan-style, there are so many different musical styles and nuances all across Balkans and many of them have nothing to do with common preconception of what constitutes "Balkan style" in Croatia. I feel people often mistake it for Ottoman influence in music of Balkans. There is so much more...

[@jasamkojajesam6108]

Entire NOT true. I am dalmatian, and in my town we have balkan-style music. For the north croatia, they don't have 'western' style, they have slovenian style, no croatian traditional music is western, we are south-eastern europeans. In south croatia it can be either mediterranean/italian style or balkanian.

[@eltoro10-v5t]

@@jasamkojajesam6108 in dalmatia balkan style music hahahah wtf there is no balkan style music in croatia

[@lupus_lupi]

Lots of croatian ethno-sacral music is preserved, our "klapa" type of a capella singing developed from that as well. You can find more if you look for Joško Ćaleta, he is croatian etnomusicologist who revived our old songs that are mostly religiously inspired. Look for Ensemble Dialogos and klapa Petrada.

[@blockflute]

I guess it's also difficult to find the info for this online, the music in this particular region uses traditional untempered scales (I think some of this music is certified under UNESCO), usually sung or played in two voices, and this style is the inspiration for the arrangement by Putokazi. I'm not an ethnomusicologist, but this type of playing and singing to my ear sounds related to the Dinaric style of music found in Croatia, Herzegovina, Montenegro and Serbia (check "istarska ljestvica" and styles like playing sopile, svirale, gusle, or singing ganga,rera and ojkavica). So while it's true there's ton of Italian influence on the coastal music, this particular style actually taps into the local pre-slavic tradition.

[@elisabetedias136]

Amazing

[@shreekharr3940]

Wasn't this the song that Putokazi had made a cover of and then Percival too made one for Witcher 3 and got copyright struck?

[@faryafaraji]

Yeah, Percival collects Slavic folk songs and performs them, and it seems they believed that this was also a folk song. They recorded their own version years before the Witcher 3, then the Witcher 3 devs asked them to record another version for the game, and that version got very popular due to the game’s success. Now the information I found was very muddled, and what I got out of it is two possible scenarios: the first is that this IS indeed a folk song, but Elvis Stanić was the first to record it commercially, and unfortunately some copyright laws work in a way where if you’re the first to record a folk song, it basically belongs to you as an intellectual property from that point on. The second scenario is that the lyrics are traditional but that the actual melody is by Stanić. In both cases, Percival selling the song was a breach of Stanić intellectual property, as dumb as it might be if it’s the first scenario. At this point no one can sell this song commercially but Stanić himself.

[@artflob4639]

Farya, this song is from the north-western coast of Croatia (Kvarner region) but it is a more modern, pop version. For real, authentic music of Croatian north-western coast (Istria and Kvarner region) you need to check out the two-part singing in the Istrian scale and the sopile/sopele instrument. It is even on UNESCO list of untangible world heritage. Just type into You-tube "two-part singing in the Istrian scale" and watch the results. :)

@@Lakanocmalena Hvala ti što si mi se javila! Pitanje za tebe; Tko je odlučio gdje je Balkan? Turci? Turci su Azijati, a balkanizacija je azijatizacija Europe. Geomorfološki, "Zapadni Balkan" odnosi se na zapadni dio Balkanskih planina na granici između Bugarske i Srbije. Međutim, to nikada nije bio fiksni geografski pojam. Da Balkanski poluotok uopće postoji, a ne postoji, ni Hrvatska ne bi bila njegov dio. Balkan je povijesna konstrukcija srpskih geografa, koji su njime utemeljili ideju o ujedinjenju svih "balkanskih plemena". Hrvatska nije Balkan, nego Mediteran i Srednja Europa. Balkan je europski polumrak, neciviliziranost i jedva prigušeni primitivizam, koji uvijek čeka da nekontrolirano eksplodira. Još jedanput, hvala ti što si mi se javila, ti koja započinješ poruku prema drugoj osobi s riječju budalo, ti osobno si primjer balkanske neciviliziranosti i primitivizma, a opet, živiš (valjda?) u europskoj Hrvatskoj. To je i sudbina civiliziranih zemalja, da ukrote divljaštvo i smire divlju krv, kako bi se u nekim nadolazećim generacijama, ti divljaci počeli ponašati europski i civilizirano.
