If dance music and club culture is your scene, then MixMag is probably what you’re already reading! It’s aimed mostly at the young and cool bloke, but looking at the prices of the tech and gadgets advertised and featured, definitely not the broke. Even though MixMag has tiny print, the large pictures of raves, artists, parties, and fashion make it pretty clear that reading articles isn’t the main focus here. Besides, the language is generally casual and even when it does include slang**, shies away from cursing. One of MixMag’s biggest draws would certainly be its review section – its pretty huge. They review all sorts of clubbing music and mixes, clubs and festivals, gadgetry, and even fashion. The articles aren’t hard-hitting journalism, that’s for sure, and they do include those fluffy articles that ask artists their favourite kind of ice cream, yes, but MixMag is no gossip rag with a page three girl.
**Honestly, I don't really know any British slang. This rather reaches the end of my culture knowledge.
ReplyDeletewell, for someone with no colloquial slang, you have done a pretty good job here.
