Our start and end points shift this time (1979–1997 vs 1977-1989) but again the focus is on revolutionary moments in music and subculture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe've got pieces from The Face, i-D, Time Out, Village Voice, Rolling Stone, Mixmag, The Observer and - a particularly big pleasure - Collusion magazine. We've got brilliant photography, too, documenting seminal afterdark moments. And we've put it all together with much love, craft and attention to detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is material that lets us experience culture in its rawest form. In-the-moment and before endless layers of post-rationalisation have kicked in. Breakthrough events in dance music, hip-hop and pop – and parallel shifts in art, design and fashion. Inspirational, ground-level creativity and enterprise that set the scene(s) for subsequent decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe hope you enjoy reading NWB002 as much as we enjoyed bringing it together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside No Way Back 002\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind The Groove - the epic 1983 feature by Steven Harvey in David Toop's Collusion magazine, charting the NYC disco underground\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhotographer Steve Eichner documenting the club kids scene at The Limelight, Palladium, Tunnel and Club USA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYear zero reporting as The Face's Sheryl Garratt visits Chicago in 1986, witnessing the emergent house sound\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mudd Club - 'disco for punks' as Rolling Stone put it; the Lower East Side party which arguably spawned a thousand indie discos\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the 'socialist city' of Sheffield, meanwhile, Jon Savage heads for a night of sharp clothes and even sharper moves at Jive Turkey\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaul Morley writing in Time Out in 1988 on the tension materialising between glossy style mags and the the monochrome music press\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe House That Rap Built - Village Voice celebrates the short but sweet glory years of hip-house\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMixmag in 1992 on the 'return of sex' to clubs like Roxy and the Sound Factory\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImages and commentary from Eddie Otchere, rewinding to jungle's halcyon days\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKodwo Eshun reporting on jungle's full-throttle ascent for i-D in 1994\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e+ Editor’s notes, supporting commentary, playlists, and covers, spreads and imagery from original titles\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Different than Magma","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55627165860216,"sku":"X9856","price":22.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0285\/4760\/files\/Screenshot2026-08-08132300.png?v=1786192275","url":"https:\/\/magma-shop.com\/products\/record-culture-11-copy-1","provider":"Magma","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
