JUNK magazine

[AgingYouth]

The new issue of JUNK hits the street. And this time round, we have curated this issue’s free CD. Woo hoo!!! The sexy beasts of JUNK are our goot friends! And the magazine is highly reminiscient of the old BigO without the overtly political slant and B&W pages. And did I mention that they've a free CD?

Look out for it at MPH, Times the Bookshop, Kinokuniya and other major newsstands! Each issue will set you back by SGD7.00! The KL-based magazine will have a strong focus on regional music, i.e. music from Southeast Asia and will be distributed in Singapore, Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand and of course, Malaysia. Every issue will come with a CD compilation of the very best music that our region has to offer.

You can check them out at their blog:

what's TLE?

 

[AgingYouth]

Sorry, my fault. It's $7, not $5.

Basically, it's a music mag with a strong focus on regional music - i.e. SEAsian music.
