Institutions which may produce and distribute my magazine

Looking at IPC i found they did rather up to date and mainstream music magazines such as NME, yet they do do 'uncut' which I believe is a rock magazine which is a contrivertal genre like mine (so they may be an option). I also looked at future publishing which does such publications as rythm magazine which is more of a 'how to' magazine- although it does specailise in many genres (mainly guitar). EMAP has done many rock/guitar magazines which is not to do with mine but they do specialise in one genre per mag like my magazine does. so it would be between IPC and EMAP.
