For my research I found 3 different genres of magazines. This will help me to try and decide what type of magazine I would like to do for my project.
Magazine 1
Title : Billboard
The Audience : I believe the readers of Billboard would be Hedonists and Mainstreamers. I think this magazine will be aimed at young people/teenagers, both males and females. On the Jicnar scale I believe they would be C2/C1.
Main Contents : The main contents of this magazine is full of a range of different music including country, rock, pop, adult contemporary, latin pop songs, R&B etc.
Brand Identity : This magazine is for people who enjoy many different styles of music. This magazine is aimed at people who have a very wide view of music and like a variety of different things. They could like mainstream artists as well as indie eccentric artists.
Magazine 2
Title : BBC Music Magazine
The Audience : People who read this magazine are probably Succeeders and also Traditionalists. On the Jicnar scale they are probably B/C1. I assume the audience of this magazine are probably older men and women
The Main Contents : The main contents of this magazine is simply classical and instrumental music.
Brand Identity : This magazine is aimed at the older people who enjoy classical and/or instrumental music. They are traditionalists who like to make sure things stay the way they are. They are also Succeeders as I assume that they are quite well-off.
Magazine 3
Title : Mixmag
The Audience : I believe that the audience for this magazine would be Individualists and Hedonists. On the Jicnar scale I believe they would be C2/D. I also believe that this magazine would mainly be aimed at young males.
Main Contents : This magazine is full of dance music and information about clubs and places to go. They also would be interested in drum and bass music, also raves.
Brand Identity : This is a magazine that is suitable for a younge rage range who are into clubbing and dancing. It would be aimed at people who love a range of dance music including drum and bass. They would like the sound of different interesting music types.
After doing all of my research I have decided that it would be better to do a mainstream music magazine aimed at young adults. I would like the magazine to be a lot more sophisticated than other magazines that are out there as I think that most mainstream music magazines are quite trashy. I would also like my magazine to look at all types of music out there, not just pop but rock, R&B etc. This way I will be able to get a bigger, wider audience by morphing all of the different magazines in to one music magazine.
A magazine that I researched was Q magazine, this magazine includes many different genres of artists and would be the type of thing that I would like to do in my magazine.
