This was my format for my questionnaire, i then printed 10 copy's out and gave them to a variety
of pupils found within my 6th form, the down point to me doing this was i only got a selection of information and feedback from an age group between 16-18. this meant my results were very minimal and not vary ranged.

From my feed back i did gather some use full and interesting results, out of the ten people who filled out my questionnaire i found that over half of them put down that dance and drum and bass was there more listened to music. this lead me to think i should make my music magazine on dance or drum and bass, but until i decide between the two i needed to do some more research.

I also found that the people who were buying the music magazine brought them for the interviews with bands and news within the music world.



From my questionnaires i have decided to do a drum'N'bass music magazine covering storeys and interviews from different music artists and i will include photographs, new music chart listings and information coloms. i think this type of magazine will apply to many kids of the same as group as me so would be a success, but i will still need to do some more research into the drum and bass scene.
