The document summarizes the results of surveys conducted to help design an electronic dance music magazine. Key decisions made based on the feedback include using a large cover photo, focusing on the EDM genre, featuring artists and interviews, offering promotional incentives like festival tickets, and including a mixture of text, pictures, interviews and reviews.
