The publishers of Kmag have have also released a book called "All Crews." It's a journey through drum & bass culture from its inception by the author Brian Belle-Fortune. “All Crews†is filled with an innovative series of snapshots of the jungle / drum & bass scene. Featuring interviews with the music's top artists, it delves deeper, looking at the pirate radio stations, labels, crews, promoters and ravers which form the backbone of the scene around the world. More than just history, “All Crews†is written from three different perspectives: the journalist, the insider and the raver. Portraying an unseen slice of life, it gives voice to a diverse yet closely-knit community. A scene where lines of race and cultures are blurred, where Tottenham youth party with Oxford graduates, and the music that draws them together dancing under one roof is jungle. "All Crews" was published as part of Knowledge magazine's tenth birthday celebrations.
You can currently able to buy “All Crews†from http://www.kmag.co.uk/allcrews for £10.
