Featuring our first photo editorial as a magazine, this issue we look at how DEMAND intersects music and culture in the UK and internationally. The themed issue features an exclusive interview with label head Bradley Zero circling South London culture, Northern artistry and inclusion in promotion, plus:

  • 40+ photos from 30 burgeoning photographers.


  • Four features including an exploration into the rise of chess and its role in London’s underground

  • An investigation into the North’s best kept secret, a well worn dance floor situated in the Peaks

  • An exploration of Chilean female-led artist movement where reggaeton is an act of turning pain into potential.


  • 90 designed pages of visual and written exploration that muse and reflect on culture as we know and forget it.

    This is a look at what it is to live surrounded by music.
