Offie Mag
Off Licence Magazine (often stylised as "Offie Mag") is an independent multimedia platform founded in 2017 in Brighton, United Kingdom[1]. Focused on highlighting underrepresented genres and independent music, the platform operates through a combination of print publication, photography, events, radio and social media.
History and Mission
[edit]Launched in 2017, Offie Mag was created to provide a voice for independent music scenes and genres often overlooked by mainstream media. Beyond its print publication, Offie Mag integrates film and photography to engage audiences and promote its content through various social media channels.
Content and Themes
[edit]Offie Mag has released 14 issues to date, and each issue has a unique theme. Past themes have included topics like Independence, the Cost of Living Crisis, a New York-inspired edition, and, most recently, The Internet for Issue 14. Each issue aims to explore these themes through in-depth interviews, features, and a range of visual media.
The print magazine has always featured two front covers, with artists such as Roc Marciano, Greentea Peng, Liv.e, Lord Apex, Zack Fox and Armand Hammer appearing in the publication as exclusive cover features. Offie Mag Radio, the magazine's radio show, has hosted broadcasts on internet radio stations including The Lot Radio, Red Light Radio and Balamii.[2]
Events and Projects
[edit]Offie Mag extends its reach through events, including the monthly Offie Mag Social, a free club night that brings together local music enthusiasts and creatives. In 2023, Offie Mag also hosted Offie Mag’s Long Hot Summer, an Arts Council-funded series in collaboration with the brand Champion, aimed at supporting the grassroots music sector during the cost of living crisis.[3]
