Current Issue...
The second issue of British Awareness is destined for great things. It is jam packed full of passion, and highlights our message... British music in the 90's is fantastic! There are more writers, we have all had a chance to grow. The articles are from many different perspectives, and hopefully can relate to anyone because it is written by the fans, for the fans. We hope you will all enjoy our second issue, as we are very proud of it, and the way this 'project' has unfolded in to such an amazing part of our lives...
The following are features in British Awareness Issue Two. What is displayed on the net are only small sections unless otherwise stated, and for full versions of the articles, I am afraid you will have to get a copy of the mag!
