Truly absorbing...........
............Totally unique !
CrossRhythms stands in a league all of it's own. Based in Britain, this
bi-monthly volume - now in it's 12th year of publication - remains the
world's most comprehensive christian music guide. While focusing on
scenes in the UK and US, it encompasses a stunning array of artists and styles across the globe.
Main features include:-
a) a wide-ranging news section
b) in-depth interviews and articles on all aspects of christian music
c) a free and exclusive 1-hour-plus music-CD (in attractive slip-case) with every issue - containing full tracks from an eclectic range of
recent albums worldwide
d) an absolutely mind-boggling review section assessing (and rating) up to 250 albums per issue (as well as videos, books and web-sites)! Musical categories range from celtic to choral to
dance to gospel to hip-hop to reggae to rock to metal to..........to almost every other style you can imagine!
While recent issues have featured articles on the likes of Delirious?,
Darlene Zschech, The Violet
Burning, Bebo Norman and Jennifer Knapp, CR also takes pride in maintaining an essentially grass-roots stance, consistently encouraging scores of lesser-known musicians who are clearly rich in talent.
And,
notwithstanding CrossRhythm's prominent role in the promotion of christian music, it also succeeds in keeping a critical watch on the motives and methods of the christian music industry itself.
Spiritually and musically incisive, CrossRhythms is truly a mag with a
'sound vision'.
With literally hours of reading in every issue, can you really afford to
be without it?? |
