The 12, but loosely related, articles that comprise Sound Souvenirs are divided into 4 main subject groups (Storing Sound, Auditory Nostalgia, Technostalgia and Earwitnessing). They take the reader on a colorful tour of sound-culture phenomena as divers as - to name about half of them - mix tapes (Bas Jansen), the rise and development of mobile music listening in post-war Germany (Heike Weber), the personal auditory nostalgia practiced by iPod users (Michael Bull), doo-wop concerts in New Jersey (Timothy Taylor), the use of vintage gear and instruments by (pop) musicians (Trevor Pinch and David Reinecke) and the revival of the Theremin (Hans-Joachim Braun).
