While having only been Editor of ES&CM for a couple of months, already I'm able to bring all our readers news of a fantastic first. As from next months issue ES&CM will transform as if by magic into a tape magazine. This means that as well as the usual written version of your favourite electronic music magazine it will be accompanied by a forty minute high quality cassette tape that will be packed with reviews, demonstrations, music, demos and any other topic that deserves the attention of both eyes and ears.

We feel that this will give ES&CM a distinct advantage over its competitors and you the readers a unique experience to actually hear the instruments, artists and peripherals as well as being able to read about them. So not only will you know more about them, it should help to make up the ideal buyers guide.
