ICP MEDIA IPC Media is the UK's leading consumer magazine and digital publisher ICP media was founded in 1958 in London. IPC media has more than 60 iconic media brands. The institution creates content for multiple platforms, across print, online, mobile, tablets and events. As the ‘leading consumer magazine and digital publisher’ ICP engages with 26 million UK adults - almost two thirds of UK women and over 40% of UK men. Their websites of websites reach over 25 million global users every month. IPC media would be a good institution to use for my magazine. Although they have two music magazines already one is labelled as an ‘indie rock’ magazine (NME) and the other one (UNCUT) is more labelled as a ‘classic rock’ magazine. Which leaves an opening for the genre I am focusing my magazine on – country pop.

As the ‘leading consumer magazine and digital publisher’ ICP engages with 26 million UK adults -almost two thirds of UK women and over 40% of UK men. Their websites of websites reach over 25 million global users every month.
IPC media would be a good institution to use for my magazine. Although they have two music magazines already one is labelled as an ‘indie rock’ magazine (NME) and the other one (UNCUT) is more labelled as a ‘classic rock’ magazine. Which leaves an opening for the genre I am focusing my magazine on – country pop.
BAUER MEDIA
Bauer Media own two music magazines which are ‘Kerrang!’ and ‘Q’. Which are current popular music magazines. Bauer media would be a good institution to use for my magazine because neither magazines have genres of country music.
