Use of the Musical Notes

I saw that a lot of different magazines uses graphics especially in Just POP where they use the splatter graphic throughout their magazine.

I wanted to emulate this in mine by using musical notes. This re-enforces that the magazine is a pop music magazine and also also links to my auidence.

I have made this graphic be known to my audience using it on the front cover this sets it up to be used throughout my magazine although sparingly.
