In this episode, we talk about the origin story of the D&R zine, how that all started with the actual newsletter, which went out every Sunday for more than 2 years, what attracted them to DnB, would it be a good thing if DnB was more mainstream, why they eventually moved on from the newsletter to a print format, the dance music media ecosystem, is there room for criticizing music in DnB, their vision for the zine and much more.Episode links:Website: https://www.dnbweekly.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dnbweekly/Reminder to join the Facebook group at Last Week Liquid Podcast Community if you haven’t yet to enjoy a ton of exclusivities, subscribe and rate the podcast on Apple Podcasts or Podchaser if you enjoy this content – and if you enjoy this episode in particular, just send it to 1 person who hasn’t listened to it – that would mean the world to me.Visit the website: www.lastweekliquid.com/Join the Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/lastweekliquidpodcastRate/review the podcast, it helps others find it! www.podchaser.com/lastweekliquid
