Good question - I'm curious to see people's responses. Dusted has a similar purview to The Wire with maybe a little more rock/indie coverage. Some really good writers there. Tiny Mix Tapes was really good but they just pulled the plug. Fact Magazine fully pivoted to make videos for bedroom producers. Resident Advisor is maybe a little more techno and house focused. Bandcamp Daily does some good features but no reviews I don't think - this article <https://daily.bandcamp.com/features/an-introduction-to-extratone-the-worlds-fastest-music-genre> was fun. The Tone Glow newsletter has been great - also very Wire-like in its coverage although with an enthusiasm for pop music and other shit that makes me feel old like 100 Gecs. The period of my life where I've been super hungry to read about music has been winding down for a while so I'm not super on top of things. Maybe it's out there but so far I haven't found someone like Simon Reynolds or Geeta Dayal writing about new stuff. Adam Harper maybe? If there's any good critics out there worth checking out I'd love to know. On Thu, Aug 6, 2020 at 1:57 PM Stephen Ruiz <djstephenr@gmail.com> wrote:
