Focus group

Adam Lees
Adam is 18 years old, he left school at 17 and started work in the mobile phone shop, Vodaphone. He currently works part time there, which gives him the money and time to do what he likes in his spare time. He enjoys going to clubs, such as Varsity, Mayhem and Talk, which play all kinds of dance music including hardcore dance. Adam owns a laptop which allows him to download all his favourite dance tracks, including some of the biggest names in dance...Cascada, Dj Tiesto, Darren Stlyes and Dj Mangoo. These are some of the most well known DJ's in the dance world, making them more commonly played at clubs. Adam also enjoys going to the casino and driving around in his new car, which has a high bass and is brilliant for playing high bass dance tracks. Dance music has become a large part of Adam's life and he finds himself downloading new dance tracks almost everyday.


David Page

David is a 17 year old attending college, studying graphic design. His course has included graphic designing for dance music CD covers and I will find him a good resource for what kind of images need to be included when creating a dance magazine. David has a large collection of dance Cd's including, Clubland, SASH and Darren Styles. The clubland CD includes hardcore dance DJ's and recently clubland 14 has been realised. David also enjoys going to clubs and is interested in djing himself and learning about the DJ decks and how technical dance music is. David says 'hardcore dance music normally refers to the big clubs, concerts, glow lights, beats and remixes that make it exciting and more thrilling than any other kind of music.'


Sarah Lewis

Sarah is a 16 year old student attending 6 form and currently studying biology, sociology, business studies and maths. She enjoys going out with mates and even though she doesn't have a job and is not old enough to get into the bigger clubs, she manages to save up to go to concerts and buy Cd's. She also enjoys the clubland Cd's which seem to be the most popular among dance music fans. Sarah thinks that a lot of the clubland CD covers include a half naked girl, but she does not feel that the music is aimed at a male audience so why should the images be? This is something to be aware of when adding images into my magazine.
