NEWS: All the months Hifi News in a new easy to read format.

INTERVIEW: Holger Fromme is the man behind the German horn loudspeaker manufacturer Avantgarde Acoustic. Here he talks to Hifi Pig about what drove him to build these speakers and where he sees the role of innovation in loudspeaker design going forward.

A TIDAL STORM IS UPON US 

There really is a tidal storm of music out there! A never-ending, algorithmically-curated musical selection that is spat out ad-nauseam especially for you, your gender, your socio-economic grouping. Perhaps I should just let it wash over me, or perhaps I should just have nice cup of tea, turn on the wireless and calm down a bit. Perhaps not.

REAL MEN LIKE WHITE SPEAKERS

Never afraid to bring, as she has been accused, of fetching the itchy blanket of gender politics to the audio table, Linette this month looks at why we should all embrace better looking Hifi.

WHAT DO WE MEAN BY THE WORD HIFI?

Hifi means many things to many people. Some prefer valves ad some prefer solid state. Some prefer horns and some prefer conventional speakers. But what does Hifi really mean? Or is that a question that is impossible to answer?

FROM WORDS, INTO WORDS

Regular Hifi Pig contributor, James Fleming looks at the work of The Fall and especially the recently deceased Mark E. Smith.

INTERVIEW:

Ian Munro was one quarter of the UK electronic band Opus 3 that had a major hit with the tune Fine Day which was an absolute monster of a tune and seemed to be everywhere in the year it was released. Other members of the band were Kirsty Hawkshaw, Kevin Dodds and Nigel Walton and in addition to Fine Day, that charted in the UK at number 5 (U.S. Hot Dance Club Play number 1) they released two albums, Mind Fruit (1992) and Guru Mother (1994).

BOOK REVIEW:

Cosey Fanni Tutti – Art Sex Music

My life is my art, my life is my art is a statement that few can say they have lived by so wholeheartedly as Cosey Fanni Tutti and Art Sex Music documents her life as art using her diary entries as the starting point.

Not limiting his imagination to the audio world, Kostas also designs for some of the most well-known luxury brands in the world.

LIFE THROUGH A SCREEN. A MODERN DAY ADDICTION? -Our obsession with screens shows no signs of slowing down but what does this mean for the future of high quality music in the home and on the go?

STU’S VIEWS

It’s all well and good having a thousand and one records in your collection, but how do you go about organising them and making sure you can put your hands on specific recording you want to play?

In recent weeks this very subject has been to the fore of Stuart’s thoughts given his burgeoning record collection and here he shares some possible solutions to deal with this perennial problem.

BIRD’S EYE VIEW

I was browsing through Facebook earlier, flicking through some of the Hifi and audio related groups that I am a member of, and something caught my eye. The cover photo for this one group was a close-up of a loudspeaker driver, instantly recognisable, without any branding or names visible, it was the KEF Uni-Q driver.

SERIAL BOWL RECORDS

So, you want to launch your own record label but don’t have the funds, don’t have the know-how and frankly haven’t a clue where to start?

Hifi Pig has a chat with Serial Bowl Records, a label collective based in Sunderland in the North East of England to get the low down.

David Blumenstein takes a look at how 2018 is starting out musically.

Download your FREE 135 page copy of the June edition of the Hifi Pig Extra Magazine. In this edition of Hifi Pig Extra you’ll find a whole host of reviews carried our over the last couple of months. The magazine took a small break in the late spring and early summer to allow us to get some new systems in place, both online and with the e-magazine, but going forward readers can expect a much more responsive and speedy website due to us moving the whole site to new and better servers and some other cosmetic changes that will improve the viewing experience. You’ll still be able to enjoy all the great content you have always had with Hifi Pig but expect more of everything including more news, more reviews, a better and more comprehensive music section plus we’ve launched Hifi Pig Television on our You Tube channel, so expect to see more video coverage of shows and video reviews too.

Normal service and Gadgety News will also return in the July/August edition.
