Deciding on a magazine title and the font

Since my magazine will focus on the pop/hip hop music genre, it is important that I choose a title that links with this style of music. I think that pop music tends to be very happy with a light atmosphere. I have chosen to think of simple words for my title to create a sense of simplicity and it will stick in the readers mind and isn't complicated. Words like 'melody', 'harmony', and 'rhythm' remind me of this type of music, however these words can seem to be a bit dull therefore I could make them much more appealing to the eye and the mind. for example I could make one letter look like a musical note, or I could play with the words so that it sounds like one word but means another. Some of the magazines that I have research normally have one word titles, this makes them look more sophisticated and classy.
Title ideas:
These are a few ideas of the font for my title, i have only done two words with only two examples of fonts as i liked these words and font types the best in my research. The words 'melody' and 'harmony' appeal to me and i think that they will match the style for my magazine. I prefer the word 'melody' as it makes the reader think of a song, and the font that i prefer is first 'melody' as the 'y' sort of looks like a music note, this font is called Elephant. It is also quite simple which i like as it gives my magazine a simple feel and it also gives it a structure that looks elegant. The other examples of fonts for my title don't appeal to me as they look quite boring and the audience that i am aimed at might not like it.
