    Stylus magazine was founded in 1989 and turns 25 this fall! Stylus features the program guide for CKUW along with great coverage of music with local artists taking priority.

    In celebration of this anniversary we are re-issuing classic Winnipeg cassette tapes for the digital times. One vintage re-issue will hit the stands again alongside our new issue every two months. On the cover of the re-issued mag you will find a sticker with download info for the Time Tunnel Tape release featured. You can then also join the conversation and share your memories with us online.

    This issues tape is 94’s ‘Pervert Teenberger’ from JohNNy SiZZle aka Martin Howell. You can hear Martin on air every Sunday at midnight for Winnipeg Arena Is on Fire
