final front cover, contents page and double page spread

These are my final drafts of a front cover, contents page and double page spread. 

I printed of these three images and gave them to a variety of people in my target audience to get a final opinion on my pieces.

I received very positive points and over 90% of the people guessed the correct genre that my magazine would belong. This immedietly was a good response as it meant I had used the correct features in order to appeal to the chosen genre. I also asked them if the magazine would be something they would buy and all said yes.

After looking back at these, there are slight changes I would make but overall I think I reached a professional looking music magazine which would suit my target audience successfully.
