4.
a paragraph explaining to what extent my album
collection reflects a more niche or mainstream musical taste?
I would say that my album collection and
the style of music that I listen too is varied and is I would say is quite well
balanced. For example, I have new albums form artists like Drake, Justin
Bieber, The Chainsmokers, little mix just to name a few but I also have albums
that aren’t trending right now but are a bit more old school for example I have
the kook’s album which is 11 years old and I still listen to that on a regular
basis.

Analysing My
results
After looking at my results I have found that my top 3
recording artists are Drake, Chris Brown and Justin Bieber. This is no surprise
to me as at this moment in time Drake Chris Brown and Justin Bieber are among
the best artists in the world and are all dominating the uke and worldwide
charts and you will probably hear at least one of these artists. Out of all my
11 artists 10 of them are signed by major record labels/companies with only
stormzy who is still independent. This doesn’t not surprise me at all because all
the artists and groups that were named are all hugely successful and therefore attract
major record labels because they can earn them a huge amount of money and make
them an even bigger record label. Out if the 12 artists named in my
questionnaire none of them were niche artists. This is no surprise as people my
age will mostly listen the mainstream radio stations and streaming sites so the
main people that they listen will be well known and mainstream instead of niche
and not so well known bands and artists. The majority of my cd and downloaded
albums are mainstream acts and are also among the artists that my friends have
named in the favourite artists.
