3. Why might IPC be an appropriate publisher for a new music
magazine? What sort of genres of music/ types of magazine might
they be likely to publish? Why might alternative publishers like
Bauer be appropriate?
IPC publishes 2 music magazines: NME
and Uncut. Although these both cover a
range of genres, IPC tends to focus on
publishing other varieties of magazines
other than music.
Bauer produces Kerrang!, Mojo and Q.
This means Bauer may be more suitable
for a new music magazine focusing on a
specific genre.
