TRANSCRIPT
GENRE; pop/electropop/electronicThe following are a
number of musical artists that would feature
in my magazine as a result of appealing to my target audience. I will go
into more detail regarding their genre,
target audience and musical influences
because a wide variety or artists could feature under the sub-genre of
pop.
