The summary of the magzines is that the magazines that I have looked at they all have a target audience that they try to meet. For example the audience for Kerrang is different compared to Mixmag as Kerrang are people who enjoy listening to rock/heavy metal. Mixmag is people who listen to dance music and have different lifestyle to ones who read Kerrang. The audience of the people who read the magazines have a different lifestyle. Every magazine is different and it hits different audiences. Magazine use different images and texts to make the audience that they want to target. Kerrang has bold dark colours rather than Mixmag has bright and vibrant colours. I can use the ideas they have produce into my production of the magazine. T am doing a Dubstep magazine which is a form of dance music. Mixmag is specialised in dance music so the ideas that they use I can use in a similar way.
You have looked at very different music magazines - it might have been more useful to look a magazines from within the same genre to get a clearer sense of what you are aiming for.
