Subsequently, the objective realities of creating the music and culture which we cover with zweikommasieben are foregrounded. Rather than only focusing on music’s inherent qualities, the magazine highlights what is necessary to be able to produce and participate, and who has these resources at their disposal. The often-sobering view on music and art could be read as disappointing. However, the texts, their authors, and the featured artists also reveal their strategies for navigating their situations and how they aspire to find ways of moving towards a more sustainable context for everyone involved. \u003cbr\u003eA red thread running through various entries of this issue is the focus on the importance of community: Lazer-Gazer and Noise Diva, two representatives of the Amsterdam scene, see collaboration at the heart of their practices. In another contribution, the Berlin-based label Unguarded makes a plea for their community as an (artistic) support network. Such a support structure is also acknowledged by Sega Bodega in his interview. \u003cbr\u003eThose and the other contributions are responding to the shared reality of creating anno 2022.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ezweikommasieben #26 includes\u003cbr\u003e-interviews with Heith, Robert Hampson (of Loop), Evita Manji, Organ Tapes, Sega Bodega, Joanne Robertson, Lazar Gazer \u0026amp; Noise Diva, and JJJJJerome Ellis\u003cbr\u003e-essays on (musical) scores as well as late payment in the music industry\u003cbr\u003e- a column on the recent focus on smell in the arts\u003cbr\u003e- a contribution by Unguarded. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll content in English; 64pages; 145×232mm+\u003cbr\u003ezweikommasieben is a magazine that has been devoted to the documentation of contemporary music and sound since the summer of 2011.

It’s a magazine that takes good design and rigorous journalism just as seriously as the music. The interviews themselves are pacy and interesting, the antithesis of basic promotional content.”\u003cbr\u003eRob Booth (Houndstooth) – “Another essential magazine…”\u003cbr\u003eRewind Forward –“Now in its 18th edition, [zweikommasieben] is a testament to this rather solid DIY venture from a group of friends […]. Each zine packs a masterclass in design—each one has a different look and feel—whether it’s a curious mix of page sizings, colour photos offset on newsprint, foil sleeves etc etc. They’re always a pleasure to unfold…”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSocial Networking: \u003cbr\u003ezweikommasieben – Instagram = 7400 followers \/ Facebook = 6700 Twitter: = 1060\u003cbr\u003ePräsens Editionen – Instagram = 1600 followers \/ Facebook = 1070 likes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Präsens Editionen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42135605674140,"sku":"MAGAZIN26","price":14.74,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/MAGAZIN26.jpg?v=1667576559","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/zweikommasieben-26","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
