The editor of the magazine, sounds like he is speaking to someone who he is close to as he is telling the reader about his opinions and help the readers with there music. This is something that usually a friend would do or someone that the reader knows.
The editor also uses colloquial language such as 'okay go read the issue then' to demonstrate that it's as if it's a normal conversation with a friend, making them feel like they have a friendship and a bond. This expands the target audience as it attracts those who want to feel at ease when reading a magazine.
The editor also tries to persuade the reader to read the magazine as he says things such as 'turn to page 6 to see just how angry we are' or 'my favourite thing in this weeks issue is the 10 page poster special'. This sense of intrigue makes the reader want to open the magazine and see what he is angry about and check out the posters.
The image of a man with the poster 'Bring the Noize!', this could be considered as slang creating once again a bond with the reader as it will show that the editor feels comfortable around the reader as he is speaking in a manner in which would usually be spoken with a friend.
Informal language such as 'thanks, gents' is used to make the reader feel like they are friends with the editor as the editor is speaking casually. It also helps connect with the audience ( those who enjoy music).
Words such as 'We' and 'Our' are used to make us feel like we are part of the team or there adventures. This will then make the reader want to carry on reading as he will want to see what other things the editor has to offer.
The editor is telling s a story demonstrating to the reader that the editor is comfortable telling his experiences to us, making us feel like we are friends with him.
Planning
Analysing the editors letter it has made me realise that it is important that the writer demonstrates that the writes cares about the readers opinion and wants to say everything that is going on so that the reader feels included in the writers adventures, This has made me realise, when doing my magazine it is important to communicate to the target audience.
