Wax Poetics Vol. 2, #8

Created by a group of writers and record diggers and relaunched in 2021, Wax Poetics is a cult music mag featuring 'trailblazers, cultures and stories that shape the sounds of yesterday, today, and beyond', spanning hip-hop, funk, techno, tropicalia, jazz, and beyond. As they put it, 'whether you’re a record head, or just starting to explore your passion for music, you’ll find something here for you.' 

In this issue:

We are closing Vol. 2 on a high with a cover from DJ Koco himself. A growing superstar DJ, but with an old soul. He brings a classic beat digger’s approach to his impeccable 7-inch selections but peppers them with new-school DJ tricks and is now making waves that reverberate worldwide. Beyond this the issue will be chocked full with articles covering Brit-Funk, Taj Mahal, 23 Skidoo, DJ Parrot, the Monterrey dance scene in the 90's, Don Blackman, Hermeto Pascoal, Larry McDonald and much much more.
