DISPATCH – ISSUE 001: LIFTOFF

Dispatch is the magazine from Chippy Chasers Record Store in The Hague. Record reviews, old classics next to new finds, conversations with the people who make the music and the people who carry it home from the shop. Written, drawn and laid out by hand, with no AI involved at any stage.
