Cu – Dzo AM Charts

In Bosnia and Herzegovina, new movements in music are usually mixed into the same programs as pop and mainstream music (even folk) and thus remain removed from it’s actual audience, the one which has a more profound taste.

As a result, the music which aims to have a more artistic and social content (engagement) doesn’t have the opportunity to influence neither the audience nor the society. This was a guideline in creating the Cu Dzo AM Show – a music program produced by SCCA/pro.ba for BHTV1.

In it’s first season the Cu – Dzo AM Charts combined informational comments on domestic, regional and foreign music scene with music videos and a film-like studio set. In the atmosphere of film noir and Technicolor, voices of two radio hosts led the audience through the show. Two actors, dressed in mid 20th century film costumes, listen to the show while driving in their car. They make random comments and debate over the place the song should have in the chart.

Second season of the show – themed with the 60’s era – reviewed the current alternative and underground scene and featured two actors dressed as hippies with a load of wooden planks in the back of their van driving to their final destination – Woodstock. On the road they would pick up hitchhikers (usually a member of the music scene the show portrayed).

Samir Culic (Cu) and Samir Mrsevic (Dzo) are DJs and radio hosts since the times of legendary Radio Zid. The audience is quite familiar both with their voices and their music taste. Running time of the show was 26 minutes and it featured up to six music videos.
