After looking at front covers for music magazines I learn’t that the colour combinations of  black, red and white and black and yellow were quite popular, I have decided to use Black and yellow as my colour scheme for my magazine. This decision is based too much on their popularity but instead the colours themselves, the genre I am covering is an underground genre of music so the black plays with the semiotics of the colour and yellow is related to dance, drum and bass and dub step, which are often played alongside grime ( my chosen genre) due to this the yellow may attract the audience of those genres and get them to buy my grime magazine. By looking at music magazines I have began to understand the format of them and how they are layed out, from this I feel I am ready to make my first plan for a front cover.
