The 8th edition of our magazine is here, which strangely enough is number 7.

Seven were the deadly sins: pride, greed, lust, anger, gluttony, envy and sloth. Evildoers, undesirables and corrupt people that roam freely through our country should take note.  Utterly shameful.

While they are busy doing their thing, most of us are making good with our new year’s resolutions and writing out our essential to-dos for 2013. Unfortunately, many will simply have to do trying to make ends meet.

Following our rhythm, we have set a clear goal: to not disappoint the more than 100,000 users that in 2012 visited our publication that will go on portraying the ethos of the most emblematic and relevant street in Barcelona. Let me come to the data. Passeig de Gràcia is busiest shopping street in Spain (and Catalonia obviously): an average of 26,500 people a day, with a record 35,000 people in a single. On fire!

The year got off on the right foot with a very pleasing day with Leopoldo Pomés. His exhibition at Colectania is about to finish. A stroll around 1957 Barcelona under the gaze of a curious youngster trying to find his future like so many others during times of big changes, so far and yet so close.

We are also bringing in new sections, such as the first collaboration in Meri Durán’s magazine, a very personal journey through the ways to love, or the trends section by Heels & Cigarettes. If you are lovers of Japanese food, Roger Ortuño will be familiar to your ears. We went on a journey to delight our tastebuds at the Nomo restaurant.

Seven are the musical notes, do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, ti.

If you keep upour rhythm’s pace, we’ll keep on beating.
