Genre.

My music magazine will surround an indie rock genre. Indie rock came about in the 1980s in the United Kingdom and the United States, it is a genre of alternative rock. Indie rock musicians are known for their unique combination of less used instruments. Indie rock is a mixture of many other genres, including alternative rock, folk music, and electronica, even pop. It also tends to be very positive music, despite popular opinion. Every sound within an indie rock song is made by a specific instrument they do not use artificial sounds. Indie music is natural created only using instruments and one’s voice. The majority of indie rock has a meaning behind it and majority of indie rock musicians write their own music. I have chosen to base my music magazine around the indie rock genre because I feel that it is the most beautiful genre of music because it comes  from the musicians heart, and shows true passion towards music. Indie rock musicians care more about the instruments and the music than the fame that may or may not come with it. You have to explore the world of indie rock and find your own niche within the genre as there are so many different artists conveying their passion for music in their own unique way with either the instruments that they use or the words that they sing.  I know that when I listen to indie music it inspires me to chase my dreams as a musician as the genre holds so much meaning. Due to the fact that I want my music magazine to inspire young musicians I feel that the indie rock genre will fit my magazine perfectly, including upcoming less well known artists that convey their passion for music in their own way, inspiring others as they do.
