About Me

Cyclic Defrost is Australia’s only specialist electronic music magazine.

We cover independent electronic music, avant-rock, experimental sound art and leftfield hip hop. We have no interest in fashion spreads, alcohol or clothing advertising, nor do we accept advertising in the guise of 'editorial'.

We are purposefully different. Each issue features a mix of local and international feature articles and stacks of reviews covering CDs, DVDs, vinyl as well as record sleeve designs and artwork.

We are published quarterly and are available free in selected record stores and other outlets across Australia distributed by Inertia Distribution.

Our print run is 5000 copies.
The print run features articles and interviews while our reviews and extended interviews can be found at the Cyclic Defrost blog HERE.
