(I was going to publish the times on this one, but I'm having some severe wrist pains. This is what I've got for now. Having trouble on the credits, and more can definitely be said, but I'll leave it like this for now. Oh, and I titled the page "Orkestar Sesnaesta" since it's a self title according to the j-card)

A VHS was made for the album, though contains alternate versions of the songs including an acoustic version of the second "šesnaesta" track.
Both "Šesnaesta" songs are featured on the Hiljadu ratnih dana Šesnaeste VHS. The A1 track is featured as a music video where the orchestra is seen on grass in front of trees. One accordion player, two guitarists, one bassist, a drummer and a keyboard player are seen behind the singer. The band appears rarely, as most of the video is war footage of commanders, soliders and combat. An alternative version of the B1 track is heard at the beginning of the VHS. Here, Velimir Škorić sings the song while performing it with an acoustic guitar. The video here also mostly comprises of footage of soldiers clearing buildings, walking through the woods and trenches and tanks, as well as a digital map of northern Republika Srpska showing what cities the 16th Krajina Motorized Brigade fought in.
 
The songs themselves have a lot of musical variation between the songs. While there are fast-paced battle anthems like the B2 [[Šesnaesta (II)|Šesnaesta]], there are also slow songs like [[Sječaju se palih drugova]], which mainly uses the piano as an instrument and mourns lost comrades. Some songs are Accordion heavy, while mainly utilize E-Guitars and synths. A total of five vocalists are featured on the album, one of which is female but uncredited.

"Sixteenth") is the debut album of Orkestar šesnaesta, released some time in 1994 by Glas srpski Banja Luka. To date it is the only studio album from the orchestra and the second-known release from Glas srpski.

Background

The 16th Krajina Motorized Brigade was a unit of the Army of Republika Srpska and saw combat from 1991 up until the end of the war in 1995. The unit is most famous for its participation in the Bosnian War and Operation Corridor 92. Sometime during the war an orchestra of the unit would form, but it is only known that they released one cassette and were briefly featured in the Hiljadu ratnih dana Šesnaeste documentary as a musical act, both in 1994.

The label, Glas srpski Banja Luka, was a part of the Glas srpski newspaper active since 1943. It is only known that the newspaper released this album and the Opsada Krajina -Operacija koridor- / Tri krsta majke Krstine gusle album.

Release

Orkestar šesnaesta was released some time in 1994 by Glas srpski Banja Luka. There is only one known variant of the tape: a translucent black tiled cassette. All known copies have great audio quality.

Both "Šesnaesta" songs are featured on the Hiljadu ratnih dana Šesnaeste VHS. The A1 track is featured as a music video where the orchestra is seen on grass in front of trees. One accordion player, two guitarists, one bassist, a drummer and a keyboard player are seen behind the singer. The band appears rarely, as most of the video is war footage of commanders, soliders and combat. An alternative version of the B1 track is heard at the beginning of the VHS. Here, Velimir Škorić sings the song while performing it with an acoustic guitar. The video here also mostly comprises of footage of soldiers clearing buildings, walking through the woods and trenches and tanks, as well as a digital map of northern Republika Srpska showing what cities the 16th Krajina Motorized Brigade fought in.

The songs themselves have a lot of musical variation between the songs. While there are fast-paced battle anthems like the B2 Šesnaesta, there are also slow songs like Sječaju se palih drugova, which mainly uses the piano as an instrument and mourns lost comrades. Some songs are Accordion heavy, while mainly utilize E-Guitars and synths. A total of five vocalists are featured on the album, one of which is female but uncredited.
