5 Mag 177 dropped today with a very special feature: Bruce Tantum sits down with Graham Massey and Andrew Barker of electronic music legends 808 State in the kind of in-depth, provocative discussion of history and the future we love to publish – in short, the quintessential 5 Mag cover story.
Note: 5 Mag is published digitally in our member’s section; subscriptions are only $1/issue. You can also order this issue as a digital download from Gumroad.
Here’s what else is inside the new issue of 5 Mag:
On The Cover:
“Rave helped to break down a lot of barriers – class barriers, social barriers, gender barriers and more – and helped to promote ideas of tolerance. But those ideas are under threat…”
🔴 808 State have had a front row seat through the last 30 years of electronic music. Bruce Tantum talks to the group (now a duo) on the making, mission and meaning of their first album 17 years, Transmission Suite.
🔴 New mix and interview by Harold Heath with Scott Moncrieff, aka thatmanmonkz, on the making of his new album Non Zero Sum Game.
🔴 5 Mag is in love with the sound of Elina Shorokhova, aka Soela. The Berlin-based DJ and producer talks to Lauren Krieger and plays some dope wax for our latest 5 Mag Mix.
🔴 5 Mag gets you on the cutting edge of the next electronic music wave: sealcore.
🔴 A new challenger to SoundCloud appears, powered by all kinds of blockchain magic. Meet Audius.
