247 Is an inspiration to me as it is a popular regional music magazine in the South East of England and Wales, although it covers more genres than the ones that will feature in my magazine it still uses a very dark base colour. The masthead colour changes by the issue depending on what other colours the magazine has in use.
However 247's cover has a lot less information on it in comparison to national magazines, it does not feature as many cover lines detailing stories inside of the magazine or promotions such as free poster. The layout is a lot more simplistic than a lot of the national magazines, there is a lot more blank space. However they make good use of the cover lines that they do use to bring in their audience by making them interesting and this will be good for me to look at when creating my front cover rather than cramming it will a lot of less detailed adverts.
