Fonts & Typography

Fonts are especially important for music magazines. Depending on what genre of music that a magazine chooses to dedicate itself to, the magazine’s font has to correspond and relate to that genre as it is crucial.

This font was one of the fonts that I considered to look rockish and stand out. It has a grungy feel to it and the eroded effect makes the words appear more edgy, different.

 This font was one of the fonts that I thought looked as though it had been graffitied and graffiti is generally associated with the R&B/hip-hop genre of music. The words looks funky and the 'z' looks almost like a tag.

This font was one of the fonts that I believed fit the country genre of music as many country music magazine use fonts that look formal and ones whose typography is sans serif. It's easy to read and also looks modern.

This font was the font that I considered would best belong to a pop magazine aimed at young audiences. Since the font looks as though it has been handwritten, looks fun and childish and would appeal more to younger audiences who enjoy listening to the pop genre of music.
