Rewind 2017 is The Wire's review of the last 12 months in underground sound and music. From releases of the year to the reflections and analyses of a host of artists and critics, it is the essential guide to the audio culture highs and lows of the year.

Download the Wire Rewind app for free. Then point your camera at the cover of the January issue of the magazine to explore the sound and additional visuals.

NB: The app functions most effectively with a copy of the printed magazine laid flat in good lighting conditions. But the app can also be used with an image of the magazine cover on screen. If you are a digital subscriber, we recommend that you print out the cover using your Exact Editions Wire app.
