Pulse is a contemporary music journal. We provide a platform for researchers working on topics related to all aspects of musical expressions to engage with one another and to share their work with a global audience.

Aim

We aim to enliven scholarly debate and discussion on topics related to contemporary musical life, and to share with a global audience the distinct voices and perspectives of Southeast Asian musicians and scholars.

History and Philosophy

Pulse is published by PGVIM, an institute dedicated to the development of music and the arts within Southeast Asia. Through the promotion of musical diversity and innovation, the institute is paving the way for sustainable paths for the development of Southeast Asian creative practices in the world today.

Pulse endeavours to further support the development of musical culture here in Thailand and throughout the Southeast Asian region. To this end, Pulse is a blind peer-reviewed, non-profit, open-access journal. We encourage submissions from emerging artists and scholars, graduate students, and early-career professionals.
