Exactly eleven years ago, on July 23, 2011, Amy Winehouse died at the age of just 27. That’s why our ME flashback journey now goes into September 2011. Back then we featured Amy Winehouse on the cover and commemorated her. With her, Generation X just lost their best voice – the ME and the whole world mourned.
This is what the magazine looked like inside and out:
Also in that issue: In the interview, Samy Deluxe talked about everything that he thought was wrong in German hip-hop at the time.
Last but not least, Audiolith Records was represented in the line-up from that time and talked about their philosophy, which emphasizes DIY and punk attitude.
Why the nostalgia? On July 14th we are with the 800th edition at the start gone. Rejoice with us! Here to their content and the direct order option.
800 ISSUE MUSIKEXPRESS – THE BIG ANNIVERSARY
Then someone else would say that print is dead! Despite the supposed omnipotence of algorithms, MUSIKEXPRESS has been defending its regular place at the kiosk for more than 50 years, where it has been since July 14th can be found in his 800th robe.
MUSIKEXPRESS started in 1969 as an independent, German version of the Dutch model. As Germany’s oldest music magazine, it has long since become an icon: MUSIKEXPRESS explains the pop-cultural present, builds bridges to the past and looks to the future.
For the anniversary of our 800th edition, it should be about what leads us to music. That’s why we’re dedicating our anniversary edition to 80 albums that changed our lives.
40 regular authors of the magazine and 40 musicians such as Tocotronic, Thees Uhlmann, Ilgen-Nur, Wanda, Noga Erez, Isolation Berlin, Calexico, Drangsal and many more write about records after which nothing was the same: from the Beatles to Bowie to Florence and Kendrick Lamar. Living pop culture – there is a lot to (re)discover!
