Wire Magazine
About
The Wire is an independent print and online music magazine, founded in 1982 covering a wide range of alternative, underground and non-mainstream musics. The Wire celebrates and interrogates the most visionary and inspiring, subversive and radical, marginalised and undervalued musicians on the planet, past and present, in the realms of avant rock, electronica, hiphop, new jazz, modern composition, traditional musics and beyond. Passionate, intelligent and provocative, The Wire wages war on the mundane and the mediocre. Its office is based in London, but it serves an international readership. The Wire magazine issues compilation CD & download 'The Wire Tapper' on card sleeve, 3 times a year given-away free with the magazine monthly edition and 'Below The Radar' - download 4 times a year
