Magazine title for Dub-step magazine
Name ideas:

.the Drop
.Darksoul
Name chosen:The Drop

3. My magazine will be published monthly due to the nature that the music
genre’s dub-step, electro house, trance and other similar genre’s don’t come
out with frequent material such as other genres of music. Because of this
publishing it monthly will mean readers will receive a magazine that contains
plenty of content from that month and it will be thoroughly designed and
have fresh music from the running month giving all the inside news about it
and what’s currently hot and what to look forward to and be on the lookout
for.
Publishing frequency

4. Due to the frequency of publication and looking at my audience research I
have come to the conclusion that I will charge £2.99 as it is being issued
once a month the paper and quality of the magazine will be a lot better than
once that is published every week it will also contain more information and
in more detail and depth.
Cover Price

5. The Genre of music in my magazine will consist of a few genre’s
that link with each other or can be seen as similar (arguably). E.g
Dub-step, Electrohouse, trance.
Examples of artists:

.Skream

.David Guetta

Genre

6. My readers from my research are going to be around the age of 16-21 mainly
and they will be of working class.They enjoy expressing themselves and are
not too shy and like to party and club and listen to music whenever they can.
They consist of a 50/50 split between male and female.They like going to
raves, taking a lot of pictures, dancing and shopping.
Likes posting things on many social networking sites
Also likes following trends and the crowd and trying
To learn the new crazes such as “cutting shapes”
And “shuffling”.
Reader Profile

7. An article that would go in my magazine
would be of events, new releases, and
anything big that is to do with the genres of
music I am focusing on.
An example would be an article on the
Massive event known as “Tomorrow Land”
which is based in Belgium once a year. It is a
huge event that invites people from all
around the globe as long as your 18 or older.
It gives the audience some of the best
atmosphere and electro house music from
around the globe.
The article will have quotes from people
that have attended, images of the insane
scale of the event. And also information on
the line up.
Article example:

8. In the magazine there will be monthly competitions, this could be anything from
making your own tunes and sending them in, to just simply answering a question to test
your knowledge on the music that is currently happening around the globe.
Prizes of the competition could include tickets to festivals and events, or merchandise
from DJ’s or music related.
There will also be monthly giveaways of 5x t-shirt’s that have the magazines logo
printed on it.
