Where did Wave magazine go?

from Boju Bajai · host Boju Bajai

Wave was the most popular English language magazine among young Nepali readers in the 1990s and the 2000s. Launched in 1994, Wave became an instant hit because of its fresh take on music, fashion, youth culture and the concerns of young urban Nepalis. And remember the iconic lyrics book with guitar chords (this was when the internet wasn’t as accessible) and the glossy poster of international musicians that came with the magazine every month! It was also one of the very few and first Nepali media outlets to have a vibrant online presence through its website. Sadly, much of it is no longer available in the public domain.In this first episode of our brand new series called “Rewind with Boju Bajai” we sat down with Wave magazine’s founding editor Yubakar, assistant editor Tsering Choden, and Shashank Shrestha, who interned there. We asked them about their time at Wave, their favorite/most memorable cover stories, and what they most fondly recall about working at Nepal’s most iconic youth magazine.

Tibetan (Bhote), Nepalese and English - song and conversation Tibetan (Bhote), Nepalese and English - song and conversation.Starts with the porters singing in their Tibetan language. Then, it continues with a Nepalese song which also talks about the King Mahendra and the song goes as “radio bajai sor ramro….” They are also criticizing each other that the song wasn’t sung correctly. Then a boy thanks (who?) for coming to look for them, in English and sings a song in his language.22.12.1968GURUNG_SOUND_1 ZROZUMIEĆ MARKETING Artur Jabłoński & Marek Piasek Zrozumieć Marketing.

Mamy wiedzą lepiej Meloradio „Mamy wiedzą lepiej” to podcast tylko dla mam, które z dystansem podchodzą do swojej roli, potrafią śmiać się ze swoich porażek i nie wstydzą się przyznać, że macierzyństwo to słodko-gorzkie historie, dalekie od instagramowych, pięknych kadrów.Podcast to rozmowa dwóch "przeciętnych" mam, które z przymrużeniem oka przy kawie plotkują o codziennych problemach, nie wstydzą się bycia nieidealną, a w swojej „zwykłości” są wiarygodne.
