Music magazine

The genre in which i have chosen for my magazine is indie-rock. This is largely due to the fact that i have much interest in this genre, and i feel that i could be more creative,and understand the typical conventions of indie-rock magazines, like NME and Q and both develop and challenge them.

The target audience for my magazine will be between the ages 16-25. I feel that more people within these ages care more for this genre than those of younger or older ages. I feel that this target audience will find more of a connection with the appearance i want my magazine to take. The magazine will be aimed at both genders. I don't feel as though my magazine has features that will appeal more to one  gender than the other. This fact will give me a larger target audience.
Basic ideas behind music magazine
I have decided that my magazine will be sold weekly. I feel that too much happens in the indie-rock industry to just seel an issue monthly. Moreover, after researching already-existing magazines, i have recognised that many are sold on a weekly basis. These include, 'Kerrang' and 'NME'.

I have decided that my magazine will be sold at the price of £2.10. This is because other magazines that are sold weekly, like NME and Kerrang are priced as £2.20. Monthly issued magazines like Q are sold around £3.50. With this being the case, i am aware that the media industry, particlularly the magazine aspect is very competetive. Ad my magazine will also be issued weekly, i need to compete with the alreadt existing magazines. In hindsight, i feel that if my magazine is slightly cheaper with it's competetors, it will attract the target audience.
