The only music geek magazine I subscribe to and actually read on a regular basis is Sound On Sound. I really feel it's the only one of its kind that's actually worth reading each month. There's also Computer Music and Future Music, which are essentially the exact same thing. I cannot stress this enough. Exact. Same. Magazine. Same reviews, same interviews, same news. If you're going to buy one (which is okay every once in a while, but every month it just becomes a rip-off at the U.S. standard of $14) don't buy the other. MusicTech is more respectable, but usually isn't worth the money.
If you're just starting out, reading a mag like Computer Music is actually a great way to get into it - just don't take everything at face value. Always research before making a purchase.
