The genre of my music magazine i am going to do is 'Indie Rock'. I am going to use the magazine NME as my model cover, as i find this magazine interesting to read and very eye catching. The 'new musical express' (also known as 'NME') is a very popular music magazine in the United Kingdom, this magazine is published every week since March 1952. It was the first british paper to include a singles chart, in the 14 November 1952 edition. In the 1970's it became the best-selling British music magazine. During the period 1972 to 1976 it was particularly associated with gonzo journalism, then became closely associated with punk rock through the writing of Tony Parsons and Julie Burchill. This weekly magazine costs £2.20 each week, this magazine has a amazing readership of 411,000 every week. it had believed 73% of males read this magazine and 27% female, however this magazine intended audience is men 17-30, so there is a lot of the audience which s unintended.
NME are a extending company, as they have their online website, music program and a radio station. Krissi Murison was named the magazine's eleventh editor on 29 July 2009. She took over as the magazine's first female editor in September 2009. NME has a number of pages at 62, however these pages change a lot but never usually less then that, can always be more.
These's magazine front covers above are very eye catching, they all have different colours and layouts but are the same magazine. this is the type of magazine i would like to produce as my media project, as i think its very successful and a magazine i am interested in on a weekly base's.
why is the magazine called NME(the new musical express)? this magazine is called NME because it is very modern style to its name and it also shows all the new music in this certain genre.
