  • Fill your ears at 'Poetic's MySpace... mmm! Nice to see some coverage about the music behind the samples in music such as DJ Shadow's.

  • Very good insight into the mag. Saw Waxpoetics reppin' at the LA Beat Swap Meet, looking in their direction with curiosity and fascination. Keep up the solid work, 'Poetics. - DQ of Foundation FunKollective

  • Wax Poetics is worth even more $$$ than $6...

    Thanks for the extended mix cinquanta!

  • Publishing is an expensive proposition, Books, and a risky one. It's also printed on some higher-quality paper stock, which makes it feel like a higher-quality product as well.

  • no doubt. i always browse the mag when i find one in a record store (you know, a place where they keep reco...nevermind), but I never felt compelled to pony up the snaps.

    but the fact the mag persists reinforces my hope that real shit can get support...even if not from me....wuduyu expect tho? i'm a rapper. any chance of a magazine being devoted to lyricism qua lyricism?

  • Never heard of WP either until this pod so really great piece. As an avid vinyl collector, I'll really have to look into this. Very cool!

  • I dont even collect vinyl but I want to pick up a copy of that magazine now, see what new -- old stuff I can find.

  • Great pod. I'd love to see you do a similar piece on FatBeats, the store you visited. That place is a rare gem.

  • Love it, reminds me of one my favorite documentaries, The Z-Channel: the Magnificent Obsession, Instead of exposing the world to hidden film treasures, its music. (the man, his channel and his mission)
    I definitely must get a copy of the mag.

  • As always, excellent work J.C. =]

    Wax Poetics is an amazing magazine and I think this pod showed exactly why. The mag and the idea behind it are what's missing from hip-hop journalism (and music journalism in general) today...it's well worth the cover price.

  • So important for all of us to know where those samples we love so much came from! And YES I want to hear something/read something I've never heard before...that's what the musical experience is all about. Thank you!

  • i'll have to check it out, i'm a white boy into jazz but don't know a thing about hiphop, is there online content? the possibilities could be huge for interactive content on the web.

  • in todays society the youth is so consumed with mainstream rap that they dont realize its not true hip hop and i wasnt aware of this magazine and thanks to this pod i can go fat beats (by far my fav record store) and pick up a couple issues to continue my support of real hip hop
