WAV Magazine by Ami Kealoha
WAV is a heady mix of relatively unknown music and left-of-center politics, published out of Los Angeles, California. Its most recent issue, with a profile of DJ Rap (referred to as "arguably the world's #1 female DJ") and a piece about the other video directing Gondry (Olivier, Michel's geeky bro), there's plenty in its pages to keep the avid culture hound's attention. A casual writing style and eclectic layout belie the glossy's youth (this is only their fourth issue), but that's often the case from what's likely the output of a no-sleep work ethic of an underpaid and understaffed independent publisher.

As with previous issues, the main draw is founding editor...

Properly Chilled
You may have noticed I have a very soft spot in my heart for all things chill (music specifically). I've been peeping in on Properly Chilled regularly. It's a great guide to the downtempo music scene/lifestyle, spotlighting not only the essential release reviews, label/artist profiles and other data on the genre but also exclusive DJ mixes and all kinds of other goodies. PC just...

Fray Issue 1: Busted!
Busted! marks the first print edition of Fray.com’s long-running series of first-person true stories. Launched in the internet wilderness of 1996, it served the novel role of personal storytelling forum, eventually expanding to a series of live events and albums. With the new millennium came the inevitable over-saturation of blogs and online journals, pushing Fray into an indefinite hiatus, only to return last month...
