It's Psychedelic Baby! Magazine is a Slovenian online music magazine dedicated to psychedelic and progressive music news, band interviews and album reviews.[1] It was founded by Klemen Breznikar in October 2010, and was originally based in Ljubljana; it is currently headquartered in Prebold.[2] The webzine covers an extensive range of music including heavy metal, psychedelic rock, and garage rock.[3]

Three physical issues of It's Psychedelic Baby! Magazine have been published, one yearly between 2014 and 2016, and the webzine also produces a monthly podcast series titled It's Psychedelic Baby! Podcast since 2015.[4][5]

Background

[edit]

History

[edit]

Prior to founding It's Psychedelic Baby! Magazine, Klemen Breznikar operated the webzine Hippy Music, where he wrote reviews and shared classic releases from the 1960s' and 1970s' psychedelic music scene.[6] Hippy Music launched in June 2007 and was modestly operated through Blogger, with Breznikar writing under the pseudonym Iban.[6] It ultimately closed down after a year and a half, in late 2008, due to Breznikar's busy school schedule.[7] Breznikar was then studying at the University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Arts where he earned a Bachelor's degree in Library and Information Science and a Master's degree in Book Studies.[8]

In September 2010, Breznikar decided to take a year off from school and start a new online magazine.[7] Originally launched under the lengthier name It's Psychedelic Baby, That's What It's All About, the webzine's first post was published on October 3, 2010.[7] In the summer of 2011, the website adopted its abbreviated name, It's Psychedelic Baby! Magazine.[9] The blog was originally hosted through Blogger, though it eventually moved to its own .com domain name on July 7, 2016.[10]

Printed issues

[edit]

Starting in 2014, It's Psychedelic Baby! Magazine began publishing a yearly printed magazine featuring exclusive content.[3][11]

In December 2015, It's Psychedelic Baby! Magazine published its second printed issue (Issue #2 1/2) through a collaboration with Spanish record label Guerssen Records.[12][13][14] It was followed a year later, in December 2016, by its third printed issue (Issue #2 2/2), also jointly released by Guerssen Records.[15][16] All of the graphics for the three issues of the printed magazine were created by American illustrator Justin Jackley, who had previously provided an original design for the website's header.[17]

It's Psychedelic Baby! Podcast

[edit]

On June 7, 2015, the webzine introduced a podcast series titled It's Psychedelic Baby! Podcast, which lasted for three episodes.[citation needed]
