Common features within music magazines.




  • A common theme is the red and black logo which is very bold, usually wrote in block letters also usually in the top left of the cover or across the top.
  • Another thing i noticed is how the text is appropriate to the audience for example DJ (left) uses crazy chaotic writing in a bold white text this matches with the main image also and is constant throughout the main cover not just on the anchorage.
  • The main image on all covers is a bold and a stand-out individual that match's the colours present this draws the attention to the individual.
  • Many times the key individual or the main image is in-front of the title also this creates a curiosity to the reader. 
  • A variation of colour within the anchorage and cover links is also very common as this draws the attention of the reader to the main information.
  • Another thing that is common among music magazine is to include free items from CD's to posters this entices people to buy their magazines over the other ones.
  • A lot of magazines also use quite vibrant colours such as pinks and yellows in specific places such as the taglines.
