"Attached to the cover of every copy of the August issue will be a special double CD marking 50 volumes of The Wire's ongoing series of underground music compilations. Disc one will be the usual Tapper mix of all new tracks, while disc two will contain a selection of exclusive tracks and edits drawn from previous volumes in the series. In all The Wire Tapper 50 will contain 40 new and archival tracks by Guapo, Arthur Russell, Rhys Chatham, Orchestra Of The Upper Atmosphere, Tirudel Zenebe, Ammar 808, Carl Stone, Félicia Atkinson, Headboggle, Michael Donnelly, Minyo Crusaders, Angelina Yershova, SSSS and more. Meanwhile, inside the issue: Oren Ambarchi -- the globetrotting Australian guitarist, multi-instrumentalist and label runner is part of the glue that holds the international underground together through collaborations with Keiji Haino, Jim O'Rourke, Ash Ra Tempel, Vibracathedral Orchestra and countless others. He talks to Bruce Russell of The Dead C about the nomadic life of the modern musician. Plus: Keith & Julie Tippetts -- Mike Barnes meets the godparents of British spiritual jazz and improvisation to discuss half a century of playing from Spontaneous Music Ensemble to King Crimson; Pierre Bastien -- the French rhythmic explorer and instrument inventor takes the Invisible Jukebox test; Rangers -- Joseph Stannard picks his way through the blasted rock soundscapes of Texas's Joe Knight -- and more."
