Zinester Interview 01 Manzine is produced by Kevin Braddock, Peter Lyle, Mark Hooper and Woz www.themanzine.com
Kevin Braddock responds:
Manzine is a men's magazine in a fanzine format; it's also a Dada folk magazine for men; A Publication About The Male Phenomenon; and several other things.
What can your zine do that a mainstream publication can't?
Manzine talks about the modern masculine experience as it actually is, rather than how it is supposed to be.
Does the look of a zine matter?
Of course. Manzine is a non-aspirational publication that engages with the reader in a non-hierarchical way, and it is vital that that idea is embodied in the design and format as well as the content, which is friendly, amateur and rootsy.
Please recommend a zine for us and tell us why.
Smoke: A London Peculiar is a fantastic fanzine about London. Manzine has also been a fan The Shoreditch Twat, 032c, The Rig Out and Bugs & Drugs.
