Hearts of Space

HEARTS of SPACE is the original, premier national showcase for ambient, contemplative, and space-creating music. Listeners describe the show as 'addictive,' 'essential,' and ‘sublime’—a consistently high-quality experience with refined, emotionally significant music that goes far beyond simple relaxation.

Our new, completely rewritten 4th generation Hearts of Space mobile app offers iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch users free, anytime access to our new shows up to 4 times each week. Shows change and the free play allotment resets on Fridays around midnight Pacific Time.

New in-app SETTINGS allow you to customize your experience. You can browse and SEARCH the entire Hearts of Space collection of programs and albums within the app and make and edit personal PLAYLISTS and FAVORITES (now a 3-star rating that also allows you to block any program you don’t want to hear). Apps offer glitchless audio “backgrounding,” Bluetooth and AirPlay support, and up to 256 kBps streaming in the high-quality AAC format.

SUBSCRIBERS gain higher levels of access, choice and interactivity. One subscription works on all your mobile devices and all but prehistoric laptops and desktops. For a seamless musical experience, subscribers can turn voiceovers off, and use interactive stream navigation, a sleep timer, and auto-repeat.

ABOUT HEARTS of SPACE

Beginning as a pioneering late night radio show in the San Francisco Bay area in 1973, the program continues to offer "slow music for fast times." Hearts of Space evolved its own unique format — a calm, space-creating mix of ambient, electronic, world, new age, classical, contemplative, and experimental music from many eras and cultures. The breadth and depth of this musical focus is the secret of our longevity. A weekly one-hour show was nationally syndicated on the NPR network starting in 1983 and has been heard by millions of radio listeners ever since.

In 2001, we were one of the first independent music producers to offer an online streaming service. While we continue to serve our radio network, our main focus today is our web site and mobile apps.
