We lookied at several music magazines to look at characteristics that we could use in our own music magazines. I looked at 'Q' and 'WIRE' and noticed features of them:
Large front cover image
Bold title
tag lines in differant sizes depending on there inportance
large pictures to attract attention
bold headlines


the magazines veryed in there content as 'Q' focuses on more mainstreem music and well known artists, while 'WIRE' involves all forms of music including well known and unknown music. 'WIRE' has no perticular focus brand of music ither.
