Music Magazine
A music magazine is a magazine dedicated to music and music culture. Such magazines typically include music news, interviews, photo shoots, essays, record reviews, concert reviews and occasionally have a covermount with recorded music. Notable music magazines Music magazines were very prolific in the United Kingdom, with the ''NME'' leading sales since its first issue in 1952. ''NME'' had a longstanding rival in ''Melody Maker'', an even older publication that had existed since 1926; however, by 2001, falling circulation and the rise of internet music sites caused the ''Melody Maker'' to be absorbed into its old rival and cease publishing. Several other British magazines such as '' Select'' and ''Sounds'' also folded between 1990 and 2000. Current UK music magazines include '' Q'', ''Kerrang!'' and ''Mojo'' (all published by EMAP). Magazines with a focus on pop music rather than rock and aimed at a younger market include the now-defunct ''Smash Hits'' and the BBC's ''Top of the Po ...

Phonograph Monthly Review
''Music Lovers' Phonograph Monthly Review'' (''PMR'') was an American magazine for record enthusiasts founded in Jamaica Plain, Boston, by Axel B. Johnson. The first issue was dated October 1926 (Vol., no. 1) – after the first issue of '' Gramophone'', a similar magazine founded in London by Compton MacKenzie. As put by George Wilson Oman (1895–1947) – an Edinburgh-born Chicago-based telegraph operator and organizer of the Phonograph Art Society of Chicago – "This magazine is to the United States what the '' Gramophone'' is to Great Britain and bids fair in its splendidly edited pages to rival the ''Gramophone''. The magazine ran for 66 issues – six and one-half years – ending March 1932 (Vol. 6, no. 6), under financial duress during the Great Depression. Although, the suspension of the April and May 1932 issues has been attributed to, according to '' Gramophone'' magazine, "a misfortune of which we have only just heard from an American reader." "He says that the Edi ...

Music Magazines Published In The United States
Music is generally defined as the art of arranging sound to create some combination of form, harmony, melody, rhythm or otherwise expressive content. Exact definitions of music vary considerably around the world, though it is an aspect of all human societies, a cultural universal. While scholars agree that music is defined by a few specific elements, there is no consensus on their precise definitions. The creation of music is commonly divided into musical composition, musical improvisation, and musical performance, though the topic itself extends into academic disciplines, criticism, philosophy, and psychology. Music may be performed or improvised using a vast range of instruments, including the human voice. In some musical contexts, a performance or composition may be to some extent improvised. For instance, in Hindustani classical music, the performer plays spontaneously while following a partially defined structure and using characteristic motifs. In modal jazz the p ...

Magazines Established In 1935
A magazine is a periodical publication, generally published on a regular schedule (often weekly or monthly), containing a variety of content. They are generally financed by advertising, purchase price, prepaid subscriptions, or by a combination of the three. Definition In the technical sense a ''journal'' has continuous pagination throughout a volume. Thus '' Business Week'', which starts each issue anew with page one, is a magazine, but the '' Journal of Business Communication'', which continues the same sequence of pagination throughout the coterminous year, is a journal. Some professional or trade publications are also peer-reviewed, for example the '' Journal of Accountancy''. Non-peer-reviewed academic or professional publications are generally ''professional magazines''. That a publication calls itself a ''journal'' does not make it a journal in the technical sense; ''The Wall Street Journal'' is actually a newspaper. Etymology The word "magazine" derives from Arabic ...
