Opinions wanted by British magazine

Hello Everyone!
I am a writer from NME, a British music magazine. I am writing a feature about pop / rock / dance etc music from the 10 countries that are joining the EU on May 1st (Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia, and Slovenia) and would love to hear opinions or ideas from anyone from any of these countries.
I'd like to know:
What's popular with you? Who is the biggest native popstar? Who do you personally like? Are there any strange styles of music or events that you think we should know about? How do you think joining the EU will affect youth culture, if at all?
Anything you'd like to tell me will be most welcome.
Amy

well slovene music isn't as great and popular as it was once! we don't have many woldstars!
pop: Bepop , Power Dancers, Unique , Karmen Stavec , Gušti & Polona Kasal, Game Over , Nuša Derenda
pop-dance: Sound Attack
pop-rock: Alya , Vox
rock: Laibach , Siddharta , D-fact , Tinkara Kovach , Bigfoot Mama , Bitch Boys ...
dance/techno/etc.: Umek , Valentino Kanzyani , Eddy the fish , ...
folk(i think, as i haven't heard them yet but they are popular abroad): Terra Folk
i personaly like Sound Attack , Laibach , Umek , Siddharta, Alya yes i think that's all
well most of the groups are great except our comercial pop artists which suck big time!!! and slovene com. pop can't be compared to other pop music (except Gušti&Polona Kasal and maybe Power Dances who were very very popular in the 90's)

well JJ, almost all of the music is quite dark in Si, except com. pop! I'm really glad that the slovene sound reaches to Japan! Years ago slovene music celebrated it's huge succes as the band called Moulin Rouge reached the #1 spot in the Japanese chart! but that was still under yugoslavia!
