Contents page Analysis

This is a contents page from an edition of the 'mixmag' music magazine, mixmag is a magazine focusing on the electro house music genre. The picture on this contents age fits in with the general stereotypes of this genre of music as it is a party scene, this type of music generally goes hand in hand with partying and dancing etc. However the picture is filled with mainly filled girls where as the majority of the artists in this genre of music are Male. However the text used on this contents page, other than the actual masthead 'contents,' is not fitting with the genre as it is fairly boring and bland where as you would associate a very quirky and fun looking text as the music is certainly not boring and bland and therefore neither should the text be. In the bottom left there is an offer/free gift that you tend to get no matter what the magazine is about, mixmag are especially known for having gifts attached to editions of their magazine.

A lot of the contents pages in mixmag are double page however it is not spread across a double page spread, it is on a single page and then the next single page following
