Music made out of tones that you can’t always hear — but you can feel. The artists who make microsound think that even minute sonic changes can affect us. We asked three composers—Dan Abrams, Steve Roden, and Taylor Deupree—to tell us about their fascination with microsounds. Produced by Michael Raphael.
