"Heartbeat" by Taana Gardner is a foundational 1981 post-disco classic released on the legendary West End Records. Produced by Kenton Nix and famously mixed by Larry Levan, it is celebrated for its hypnotic, slow-burning groove that initially confused clubgoers but eventually became a dancefloor anthem.
