Billboard Magazine – June 20, 2015 – “Dance Power Player”
Artists – Steve Angello, Martin Garrix and Scooter Braun
The three artists above are mentioned when the article states that they showed up at a patio in los Angeles on memorial day in the afternoon, these 3 artists are some of the top EDM music artists in the world and that day on the patio will mark their partnership. The article is written as an interview because the last few sentences are written in Scooter Braun’s POV where he talks about partnering up with the other 2 and that one of them was a teenager. The rest of the article above is just the author writing an explanation on who these people are, what they do and what they’re famous for. As the author is writing this article they’re writing it in the 3rd person to make the seem more important because it is someone else talking about them and no the artists talking about themselves, the author also talks about how they act and what they wear. The way the author has constructed the article it makes it seem like there is no start or conclusion to the whole article. Other music artists are mentioned in the article like Ed Sheeran, Justin Bieber who are already massive in the media and music artists which shows the other three how important they actual are in the compared to other artists. In conclusion the author displays how important these artists are and how amazing they actually are within the gene of EDM, they are portrayed as super influential to the genre and its fans and are see as super stars. the audience will see this and be drawn into read more about them and how great they are and how they became so successful in the music industry.
In the future using this type of article will help by making the reader more curious by having vivid information and without a start or conclusion it makes the reader think that they have already read to the middle of the article and they will continue to read more as it becomes more interesting and this analysis will help me try to figure out the general language and conventions.
