Ben doesn't leave his house without his iPhone. On it, there are over 200 artists - many of whom are unheard of or small, local musicians who have only just started their career. As well as these artists, Ben has a significant amount of old-school rock music such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers and the Foo Fighters. This combination of genres have influenced him into producing music in indie rock style. Ben aspires to become a musician or band member in the near future and feels the only way to do so is through learning the theory behind music. He believes that many mainstream artists neglect to do this and therefore the history of music is becoming less important. Ben does not wish to become mainstream but to produce music that he listens to. Other than alternative music, Ben is also interested in the alternative indie look in terms of fashion and pays attention to the vintage trends. He believes that our magazine can help him go about his
career and says that it informs him of many new artists and news about bands that less people pay attention to. He also believes that the magazine keeps him in style - through artist's images - and interests young adults and teens who are into obscure fashion, music or the mainstream indie/indie-rock/rock genres and performs all the correct functions of a music magazine.
