"On the cover: AR Kane. Overlooked in their late '80s Mk 1 era and unsung for years after their 1994 split, the duo of Alex Ayuli and Rudy Tambala heralded many landmark developments in '90s music: most famously dreampop, shoegaze and post-rock. Through their embrace of dub, soul and club-forward forms they also impacted the development of trip hop, ambient dub and even, obliquely, house music's explosion into the charts. With last year's release of the AR Kive box set and a return to live activity, they talk to early supporter Simon Reynolds about what to expect next. Inside the issue: Yatta, Sun Yizhou, Cuntroaches. Invisible Jukebox: Sun Araw."
