3021126, Two new issues fa da 20-20 Posted by BlakStaar, Fri Dec-20-19 08:28 PM
I didn't see it coming. I honestly thought it was the end for Waxpoetics but they're back with new content since Issue No. 67, the second (and posthumous) Prince issue. As longtime WP fans know, the zine was heavily focused on reprints (read: no new content) since they switched to an on-demand format, but apparently the publication is back "in its original format, size, and structure," at least for this Special Europe Edition.
1. Issue 68 with Digable Planets and P.M. Dawn https://store.waxpoetics.com/products/wax-poetics-issue-68-digable-planets-b-w-p-m-dawn The pre-order is available now. Ships in January 2020. P.M. Dawn seems like an odd choice for a Waxpoetics cover but I guess...
2. Wax Poetics Europe 001 Special Edition This is mainly a reprint/compilation but there are two new articles about the London Jazz Renaissance and Acid Jazz Records. The official WP website says its sold out already as does its partner website, which was the official seller. This one somehow flew under my radar because it came out this summer (?) and I didn't know about it until today's email. I checked my email account and WP never promoted it via email until today (12/20/2019). I'm a bit pissed, to be honest. I did some searching and found inexpensive copies for sale on UK sites Boomkat and Phonica. There's also a pricer copy on eBay. https://www.rushhour.nl/record/magazines/wax-poetics-special-european-collectors-edition https://store.waxpoetics.com/products/wax-poetics-europe-001-special-edition
