CJ Lotz

Music swapping didn’t used to be as easy as a log on. Technology has made music attainment as simple as breathing, but not every nation’s rise to wires has followed the same path. Communist rule stifled the distribution of albums in Poland in the 60s and 70s, so teenagers made popular their own form of musical exchange: the Pocztowka Dzwiekowa, or Sound Postcard.

“If God did exist”, asks the advert for the Alpha course that I see on a regular basis in London tube stations and across buses “what would you ask?” After spending a couple of minutes deciding what I’d ask God (namely, why am I an atheist?)

Melancholic Troglodytes

Melancholic Troglodytes review Mihalis Mentinis' book Zapatistas: The Chiapas Revolt and What It Means for Radical Politics and discovers some ugly nationalist features behind the mask
