摘要：Author’s interpretation of the phenomenon of otočki rock rests upon the attempt to read the islandness constructed by music and music constructed by islandness through the texts of otočki rock – its music, its lyrics and multiple levels of its verbalization in extramusical texts that it is encircled by. If we can talk about islandness as a cultural fact and individual experience, can it be, and how, (re)constructed in music? How does, then, this “message” sent from the perspective of the “island” musicians grasp the receptors of its coastal and continental – non-island – listeners and interpreters? Can their islandness itself, and through which mechanisms, serve as a guarantee to the otočki rock musicians to rise up above the sea of non-islandness of the rest of the domestic popular music scene? On the existence of which imagination precisely does this category count on and which Island does it create and invoke through its promotional discourses? And finally, is there a non-island part of the otočki rock and how is it poeticized and set to music? – these are some of the starting questions of the interpretation of the otočki rock phenomenon presented in this article.
