Music Magazine Cover Draft 2

This is the second of my music magazine cover drafts. Upgraded from my previous draft is my masthead, cover line and subheading fonts, along with the positioning and sizing of portions of text, and introduction of a strap-line.
  I raised the masthead font to 100, along with altering the font to make it appear tidier. This is also to prevent the Macs having to change the fonts around automatically as not all of them accommodate certain styles. Along with expanding the masthead, I also downsized the cover line as whilst it is still the second-largest piece of text on the cover, it does not threaten the authority of the masthead.

The cover photo will merely be added in underneath the text. Usually, the cover star(s) will often be placed over the top of the masthead in published media products due to its prioritised importance of the particular issue; however this is not a published piece and 'Press PLAY' is not a popular or widely renowned media title and so this must be pointed out clearly.
