Heartbeat - Vol.1 Magazine

Heartbeat - Vol.1 Magazine

Heartbeat is more than a music magazine. This stunning, singular publication celebrates the emotion of sound through genre-defying stories that span nature and art, venturing into the past and looking to the future to explore how what we listen to makes us feel. From the makers Broccoli, Catnip, Mildew, & Calling All Horse Girls. 

The inaugural issue of HeartBeat explores 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.
