Cool Hunting
If CH was ever to go print, we'd like to think we could execute it with the same thoughtful elegance as the semi-annual audio magazine The Journal of Popular Noise, which is why we're excited to be sponsors of the latest issue's launch. This time around the limited-edition (only 300 are made) and letter pressed publication includes Climax Golden Twins, PWRFL Power and Linda & Ron's Dad.
An event at Printed Matter on 11 December 2008 officially kicks it off but the real party is on 15 December with performances by Pwrfl Power, Free Blood and Shy Child at Santos Party House, which is free for the first 100 to arrive and who RSVP to rsvp [at] popularnoise [dot] net or $10.

From their start 10 years ago when they hand photocopied an all black-and-white magazine, Beautiful/Decay has come a long way. Never one to rest on old paradigms, the art-filled 'zine is reinventing themselves by narrowing down the production to 1500 limited-edition copies while simultaneously doubling the size of each issue. The cover of the first revived issue will feature artwork by Kyle Thomas, who...
It's impossible not to love at least one of Radiohead's melodramatic tunes, but for those who resonate with the music on a grander scale we have a handsome opportunity to fulfill your limited edition dreams. Radiohead's first three studio albums have been released by Capitol/EMI Records in expanded "collector's edition" packages. Pablo Honey (1993), The Bends (1995) and OK Computer (1997) will be available...
U.K.-based music publication 'Sup Magazine's 18th issue featuring cover stars The Kills has just landed at specialty retailers. The release coincides with the publication's 10-year anniversary and boasts profiles on two dozen other indie bands like Map of Africa, Tigercity and Le Loup (see last week's video for a sample), all done with no filler (i.e. Q & A style with thankfully short intros),...
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...
When the 43rd issue of Visionaire comes out next month it will be the first to use a revolutionary process called laser-cutting. No ink will be used because the images will be etched out of a blank black page. Based in SoHo NYC, Visionaire focuses on art and fashion and is known for pushing the limits of publishing process, presentation and content with each...
by Laura Neilson In 2007, 23-year-old Erik Madigan Heck founded Nomenus Quarterly with the kind of arrogant fervor that only someone at that age could pull off. And perhaps it was that very same aplomb that made the multifaceted art and fashion publication so notoriously successful. Just one glance at the archives' roster of featured artists, designers and contributors, including Dries Van Noten, Helmut...
