Details for my magazine

I have chosen to design my magazine around the genre of music that is, Hard Dance. I have chosen this as it is a style of music that has had very little press through media and there is deffinately not a big specialised magazine on the genre. I also have a large section of knowledge on this topic so i shouldn't struggle with finding material for articles in it.



The name that i have chosen to brand my music magazine on is 'Decibel'. I like this name as it has a strong link to music and is usually used alot in the terms of hard dance. I also think that it has a good, catchy sound to it and this would increase the chances of sales of my magazine. I will cover a range of different articles and sections in my magazine which will all have relevance to the music genre, 'Hard Dance'. The different types of articles will include storys on Big Dj names, Interviews with Big DJ names, up and coming DJs to look for in the future, New album reviews, Local events and gigs as well as many others.

I think because this style of music is quite underground and there isn't as big following as there may be for rock or pop, that my magazine should only be published monthly. It have also chosen to market the mag for a price of £2.50, as again it is pretty underground music, but because it is coming out monthly i will be able to fill the magazine with plenty more features and articles than i would be able to in a weekly magazine.

The photos that i will use will be ones of artists and DJs that fall under the Hard Dance genre, i will also feature images of events that have taken place all over the country and the world. These could be pictures from such events as Bionic or Qdance.
