Shook No 1

The first issue of a magazine that's destined to be huge -- a publication that picks up the UK scene where Straight No Chaser left off -- but one that's also in funkier Wax Poetics territory too! The magazine's got the same size and great look of SNC, but covers territory that's even more wider-ranging -- with features on Leroy Burgess, Bhangra album covers, Nigerian music, Detroit underground, DJ Muro, Goya Distribution, and more -- all nestled in nicely amidst bits of graff, nice graphics, and shorter features that expand out even more! There's some great reviews and other news in the issue too -- and the whole thing's in bold color throughout. Dusty Groove
