2. QUESTION 1

This question asked people
what colours they would
associate with a music
magazine. Most people, this
being 12, have chosen to
associate Red and Black.
These two colours are what I
intend to use on my dance
music magazine as these are
the colours that are most
associated. Also, some
people picked the colour
Gold which I also intend to
use when creating my
magazine. There are more
than 20 results here this is
due to people picking more
than one colour as it was not
stated to only pick one
colour in the question.

3. QUESTION 2

This question asked people
the price that they were
willing to pay for a
magazine. 50% of the
people questioned said that
they would pay £2-£3 for a
magazine, which is the
average price of a
magazine, although a
dance music magazine is
usually priced higher than
this and only 15% said that
they were willing to pay
£3-£4 for a magazine.
Therefore I am to charge
my magazine between £3
and £4 as I believe that
this is a fair price.

4. QUESTION 3

This question asked to people to say who there
favourite band or singer was, I couldn’t collate
this data into a graph as the answers were very
wide. Although it can be seen that most people
liked Kings of Leon, Beyoncé, One Direction, Olly
Murs, The Smiths and Coldplay. It can be seen
that most of these artists are mainstream artists
and this is what people would like to see in a
dance music magazine.

5. QUESTION 4

magazine fortnightly and
only 15% of people stated

This question asked
people what type of

that is mostly heard and
only 20% stating that
they listened to dance
music, which is a small
number of people in
comparison to pop
music.
