Over the weekend I received68 responses by young peopleand decided that I would usethe results directly in order todecide the content of my musicmagazine, and present these resultsin chart form.
One of the questions of the surveywas that for people to put their fivefavourite bands, I collected the resultsand this chart indicates how manytimes the particular band was chosen.
Bands that were particularly popularincluded a Day To Remember, BringMe The Horizon and Escape The Fate.All these are popular and have a largestudent following, however, they arenot as publicized in the media and inpopular culture as bands such asMuse or Kings Of Leon, so I may havemy music magazine featured on bandswhich are described as “hardcore”“deathcore” and “screamo”

Based on the results of this
survey, and the kind of image I’d
like my music magazine to
convey, I have decided that my
magazine will be a monthly issue
and that it will cost £4.50

I included this question
because I wanted to know
how my target audience
listened to music, so I would
know if I should include
things like articles on
concerts/festivals and CD
reviews, or focus on the
internet.
What I have learnt from the
section of the survey is that
maybe I should focus largely
on bands that don’t have
much awareness on the
internet but still are talented
and have some young
following, such as unsigned
or underground bands, but
still include popular bands.
