Choosing the name!

Choosing the name of my music magazine.
The target audience I have decided to use an indie/alternative audience, they are known for liking a wide range of music, and adopt fashion from other types of social groups. This will give me a wide range of ideas and will help as I am into this genre of music. Therefore there will be more passion involved in the magazine.

At first, I tried going through a glossary of musical terms and selected a few ideas which would link with the genre of my magazine. I wanted to use words that are calm and more subtle, rather than heavy rock. I like music such as Florence and the Machines, Mumford and sons. Therefore, the genre of my music, can be alternative or indie.

Ideas from Glossary.
Voice
Chord
Rhythm

Then, i tried using the thesaurus, and looked for different words with the meanings of:

Music Harmony

Unity
Strain

Anxiety
Trapped

After, i then liked the idea of words to link with voices and singing, such as:

Chord
Breath

Rhythm
Voice


I asked a group of ... people aged 16-18 to find out what title they liked more.

Chords I
Shoegazing IIIIIIIII
Underground IIII
Anxiety III
Psycho I
