RTV ljubljana
RTV
ljubljana (radio televizija ljubljana) was a public media organization from
SFR yugoslavia, based in ljubljana, republic of slovenia. Its music production
branch and a record label was founded on 28 november 1970 as kasetna produkcija
RTV ljubljana, releasing only cassettes in the first few years. The first
cassettes were released in december 1970. The label was established and managed
by people associated with radio ljubljana, jure robežnik and dušan
velkaverh. Producers and editors were: Tomaž Tozon for folk and choral
music, Teodor Korban for classical music and Ivo Umek for pop and rock.
Following vinyl production, it was renamed produkcija kaset in plošc
RTV ljubljana in 1974. Since the label did not own vinyl pressing plants,
they used pressing services of other yugoslav recording companies, jugoton,
PGP RTB, helidon and diskos. By the end of 1970s it became the third largest
record label in yugoslavia, releasing both domestic (slovene and other yugoslav)
artists and international titles through rich licencing catalogue. In 1980,
the label became ZKP RTVL (založba kaset in plošc RTV ljubljana).
