Izvorna TV

Izvorna TV is a Bosnian commercial cable television channel based in Živinice, Bosnia and Herzegovina. This television channel mainly broadcasts music videos in the genres of Bosnian root music, turbo-folk, sevdah and other programs related to local music and folk traditions. The content is produced in Bosnian language and it is available via cable systems throughout the Bosnia and Herzegovina and worldwide (targeting the Bosnian diaspora).

History
Izvorna TV started as a project of the Bosnian Živinice-based entrepreneur Senad Trumić. Upon acquisition of the record label Lait Music by his music and budget video game publishing company Extra Music in 2014, Trumić gained rights to hundreds of music videos in the genre of Bosnian root music. Musical acts formerly associated with Lait Music mostly kept publishing new albums under Trumić's Extra Music, while the production and recording work was spun off to the company Studio Izvor owned by the musician-producer duo of brothers Semir Gavranović and Admir Gavranović of the Braća Gavranović band.

Holding publishing rights to the majority of existing music videos in the root music genre as well as future releases produced by Studio Izvor, starting a television channel was a natural business move for Trumić. In the first two months of existence Izvorna TV was broadcasting music videos exclusively. In March 2015, first original programming began airing. Trumić's media companies Extra Music and RETRO MEDIA (the official company behind the Izvorna TV brand) still remain closely tied to Studio Izvor. Admir Gavranović of Studio Izvor is also involved in the production of programs for Izvorna TV and frequently appears as host.

Programming
Most original programming of Izvorna TV is produced on a weekly basis between October and May. In the period between June and September re-runs of episodes produced in the past season are aired. Outside of the regular weekly shows the channel broadcasts streams of music videos.
