This study explores the musical sounds that link contemporary Vienna to the countries of the former Yugoslavia. For this purpose, I uncover a layer of South Slavic sounds in the Austrian capital and analyze two musical contributions to the city by migrants from this former socialist federation.

I consider Vienna's residents from the former Yugoslavia to be a distinct acoustic community; the two sound objects are in particular analyzed regarding age and class of both their producers and consumers.
