My First attempt to create a music magazine

Here is my first attempt, personally I felt that this attempt was not meeting the codes and conventions of a proper magazine for example there are too many colours font colours and styles on the front cover which did not meet the conventions of music magazines which the maximum amount of font they used were three where my one had four and the maximum amount if colours used were 2-3 where as my one had more.this is evident within the magazines below

.

Another thing that I noticed was that in my magazine there is settings however most music magazines, if not all, always have a plain coloured or gradient effect background.

So I then did another one which met these conventions.
