This week, we decipher the latest opus from the all-powerful Californian rapper Kendrick Lamar; we get excited for the Taiwanese artist Yellow and his tasty mix of mandopop and electro; we are closely interested in the Argentinian duo of the moment, Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso; and we wonder: The recovery? Stroke of genius, publicity stunt or laziness?
From Senegal (Orchestra Baobab) to Taiwan (Yellow), today’s selection has only one ambition: to make you vibrate – and why not also think – to the rhythm of the world’s sound system and its thrilling news!

BPM – The Meeting
Once a month, Happy Heartbeats of the World stops entirely with an artist, the time of an intimate encounter which mixes his life with his work, following him in a festival, in his neighborhood or on the familiar routes which are those of his inspiration.
It is BPM – The Meeting : a conversation in complete privacy and in 3D audio (or spatialized sound) at the heart of the music and its creators!
