About Properganda Magazine:


Established in April 2006, our quarterly Properganda magazine is a full colour extravaganza of interviews, album reviews, promotions, specialist features and more. PLUS a stunning competition every issue to win every single CD reviewed in the magazine.

Each issue includes:
• Exclusive interviews with some of our top artists;
• Reports and features on exciting new releases from the world of Proper Music;
• The buzz on up-and-coming acts across all genres;
• In-depth features on new & established labels from our canon;
• Reviews covering recent and forthcoming releases from our catalogue;

It is:
• Free;
• Full colour, well written and produced;
• Released at least 3 times a year;
• Available via any record shop, music club, live venue, rehearsal room, music shop, festival or street-teamer who wants to stock it;
Available to read online here, along with the full back-catalogue (however, we recommend only spilling your pint on the paper copy).

It isn't:
• Promoting or advertising any retail brands;
• Photocopied and stapled in a cheap as chips way;
• Available at supermarkets or any other leading greengrocers!

"How do I get my copy" we hear you ask?, well apart from the above information we suggest you initially search out your local Proper Partner Store and ask them for a copy or watch out for it at venues, festivals etc...

Before you add us:


This page has been set up so that we can keep in touch with the acts we cover and the people who like them.

Unfortunately so many bands are adding us without looking at the site first that we've had to bar bands from adding us, as we're getting swamped daily with hundreds of requests from groups in every genre imaginable (and some unimaginable!). This way we can spend more time using this page to keep up to date with the people who like what we do.

Sorry for the hassle, but if you're a band or musician and you'd still like to add us, send us a message right now!

Looking for Proper Distribution? We have recently changed this page to Properganda, for any business enquiries please visit our website.

David Franks: Walkabouts Verse

David Franks: Walkabouts Verse



Aug 12 2009 11:24 AM

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace... 

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my blog): 
WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN 

Once drove an old sedan, up north, 
From a place in Sydney to Cairns; 
Then to Kuranda I went forth, 
By train, to look without set plans.

I browsed through the trendy market, 
With fresh fruits of tropical kind; 
Walked to the creek through lush thicket - 
Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.

I dined in a scenic cafe; 
Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, 
Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, 
You go walkabout with your pen.” 

Request or question, I don’t know -
Assured voices, elderly men.
That’s now several years ago, 
And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.

(C) David Franks 2003

what? the folk! & Solid Earth present: Freaks, Ghouls and Graves, a Balkan (ish) flavoured Halloween (ish) knees up at the delightful St Margaret’s church in Whalley Range.

Yessum we’re back. after the monstrous success of Jackson’s Boat, we thought it only right and proper to offer you another helping of profoundly good music in a great venue. We’ve got a rosette for best zombie in show, beer and food from the nice folks at Jam Street and noise from Stumblefunk.

Another co-promo with the brains and muscle that brought Beats, Roots & Leaves back in May - this time tho we de-camp indoors to make the most of the Halloween theme inside a church, with face painters, ghost hunters, a bar provided by Jam Street and a fabulous line-up of musical tricker treats:

Na Zdrove
Na Zdrove is Sheffield's finest Balkan Beats, Gypsy Brass, Russian Ska, Gypsy Dub, Klezmer and Gypsy Punk night. blimey. We’ll ave some of that. We’ll be welcoming their house band and resident DJs - yes indeedy!
