Sonorous Pulse

Sonorous Pulse is a mock.shop sample store for building against a nonshipping sample catalog for music and production-tool storefronts before a real Shopify store is ready. It includes listings categorized as Digital Music Downloads, Sound Editing Software, and Video Editing Software. The catalog has 30 products across 4 collections. Every product has one default variant. All 54 returned product media items are images, even when product copy describes audio playback.

mock.shop is an auth-free Shopify Storefront GraphQL API backed by sample reference stores. Find out more about mock.shop sample stores.

When to use this store

Choose Sonorous Pulse when you’re building a music or production-tool storefront with nonshipping products, image galleries, and no variant selectors.

Use Sonorous Pulse for:

• Music-catalog storefronts with image-based product media
• Rendering media according to mediaContentType
• Avoiding playback controls inferred from music-related product copy

Choose another mock.shop store if you need shippable products, configurable variants, or product media containing playable audio. Browse https://mock.shop/llms.txt to find a store that matches your catalog.

Example Sonorous Pulse query

Here’s an example GraphQL POST request that retrieves a music-related product’s description and typed media from https://music-digital.mock.shop/api:

curl https://music-digital.mock.shop/api \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"query":"{ showcase: product(handle: \"curated-portfolio-playback-showcase\") { id title descriptionHtml media(first: 3) { pageInfo { hasNextPage } nodes { __typename mediaContentType previewImage { url altText } } } } }"}'

This query returns the product ID, title, HTML description, and both media items. The description mentions an audio player, but both media items are MediaImage nodes with mediaContentType: IMAGE and PNG preview URLs. Adapt the query for your storefront needs.

The endpoint doesn't require authentication or an access token. Read https://music-digital.mock.shop/llms.txt for catalog details and store-specific instructions.

What this catalog lets you test

Build collection browsing and image-based product pages for a nonshipping music catalog. Use Curated Portfolio Playback Showcase to test that your media renderer selects an image component for each returned item, rather than creating playback controls from the description. The complete catalog contains 54 image media items across 30 products, so it doesn’t supply audio media for a playback test. Music-related copy and nonshipping variants don’t establish working downloads, license terms, or fulfillment behavior.

Preview the catalog in a storefront by opening https://music-digital.hydrogen.mock.shop in a browser.

Build with an AI coding tool

To build a digital-music storefront with Sonorous Pulse using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Lovable, or another AI assistant, copy the prompt below. It gives the assistant the store domain and directs it to the catalog instructions before it starts writing code.

Build me a Hydrogen storefront using music-digital.mock.shop as the store domain. Setup instructions: music-digital.mock.shop/llms.txt

Shopify also provides a mock.shop starter project: a Hydrogen storefront with product pages, collection browsing, and a working cart already connected to mock.shop. You or your AI coding tool can customize this code instead of building those pieces from scratch.

Follow the repository’s setup instructions, then set PUBLIC_STORE_DOMAIN=music-digital.mock.shop in .env and restart the dev server to use Sonorous Pulse’s catalog. Leave PUBLIC_STOREFRONT_API_TOKEN empty; mock.shop doesn’t require a token.

Move to a real Shopify store

mock.shop uses fictional, read-only catalog data. Cart operations work, and checkout is mocked: no payment is taken and no real order is placed. The Customer Account API isn’t supported.

When you’re ready to launch, point your storefront at a Shopify store and add that store’s public Storefront API token. If you don’t have a Shopify store yet, start a Shopify free trial to create one.

Read the mock.shop developer documentation for setup and migration details.
