5. Mixmag double page spread analysis.
The party vibe definitely comes across in the double page spread which is good as it
shows its sticking to the ideology of the genre. The 4 colours of pink yellow white and
black help to create the idea of passion for the party atmosphere and make them
vibrant to highlight the texts. The image on the left hand side of the double page spread
takes up half of the page, obviously the editor wanted this to stand out since the girls in
the image look like there having a ‘good time’. The double page spread is different to

of the month giving the venues. The 1,2,3 is following the house style of dance as it has
3 slim lines making it seem like an illusion. The yellow highlights the venues of where it
was at, attracting the audience to go there. After the text there is a little section named
‘need to know’ which gives out tour dates. The layout is very structured with all the
images in line with the text. ‘Party maison, Scouse house and Ready for the floor’ all
stand out in bold black.
