Quasi Fantasia is a new publishing project exploring the intersection of music and politics.

There are fewer and fewer outlets willing to publish work that situates music culturally and politically, or work that approaches these questions from a radical perspective. There are even fewer that approach music through the lens of radical theory, or with the rigour of real cultural analysis.

We believe that music has the potential to prefigure a new world, and that it is the job of the critic to locate the transformative potential within culture.

To that end, we're opening a call for pitches. The first part of the project will launch early in 2018, and all submissions will be paid.

Ideas we are interested in include:

The political content of all music, whether explicit or otherwise
New modes of production and distribution of music
New modes of production and distribution of music criticism, and the ways in which it is funded
The democratic potential of music, and the subverting of the performer/listener dynamic
The politics of sound itself

Please send pitches to pitches@quasifantasia.org

Thank you.

Quasi Fantasia is a loose collective of writers based in the UK and US. We welcome submissions from around the world, and particularly from groups and identities that are under-represented in mainstream journalism. We are also happy to consider submissions from people in the broader music industry, including those in business and technology.
