Heartbeat is a new magazine from the publishers of Broccoli. Exploring how what we listen to makes us feel through genre-defying stories that take nature and art, the past and the future, it's another fascinating addition this high original list.
Stories in Heartbeat explore mechanical birdsong, memories of boleros, hearing a tree fall in the forest, a personal history of hearing aids, learning to sing like a whale, imagining the sound of thought, the peculiar freedoms of wingdings tracks, conversations with record collectors in São Paulo, Brazil, hip-hop style, the sacred tones of an 185-year-old Japanese bell foundry, making instruments out of glass, pond music, singing gibbons, life-changing owl calls, and writing songs people learn by heart. With features on Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Fairuz, Horsegirl, The Beths, Patrick Haggerty, RAMM:ΣLL:ZΣΣ, and the regulars at Oakland's Lakeside Lounge.
