Fast 5ive is a new Zine from DAGNABIT Studio. This 32 page, full colour Zine is printed on 150gsm matte art paper and is available in a small collectible run of 150 copies. It's available for only $5 AUD + postage in the DAGNABIT Studio shop.
The concept behind the zine is that we only ask our interviewees 5 questions, and generally have 5 people we focus on each issue. This has been a really fun project to work on as I love creating and sharing Zines and the design has really come together in a fun and rockin' way.
In our very first issue we feature a lost Mighty Boosh interview, which I did with Julian Barrett many years ago for another magazine but it missed the print deadline and so has been languishing on my lap top this whole time looking for a new home – so what better place to share it than in a zine. Next we have the live, loud and heavy rock and metal photography of John Raptis, founder of Rue Morgue Records, and brilliant indie record label serving you vinyl goodness from Melbourne town. Speaking of Rock we have Mannequin Death Squad, keeping it loud with the recent release of their first album, currently recording their second album, and with a million other amazing things going on! I don’t know how they do it! Then there’s Bank Rock 2023, which is an annual skate event held in a ditch at a not-so-secret location every year. We speak to the organisers and find out why this ditch is just so good! And finally we have some super art goodness from mighty muralist and Everfresh Studio OG – Meggs!
