John Adorney

约翰·安铎尼在美国被誉为 “音乐舒压大师”，是擅长用音乐舒解都市人身心疲惫的传奇人物。据媒体介绍他自创了心灵辅助治疗音乐，透过不同的音程、节奏、拍速、振动频率，设计出具视觉意象的无声乐音。他根据独创的「星光作曲法则」，将星光的明灭化做波长、频率，融入于乐曲的创作中。 媒体为达到市场目的的宣传，往往削弱了我们耳朵独立欣赏的意识。对《Bechoning》这张专辑客观评价：它是悦耳的，轻松的。适合大众口味的“快餐”。你不需要特定的环境、特定的心情，随时可以让你的心序与音乐同步，而音乐描述的正是我们每天面对繁忙生活的应该持有的状态。 整张专辑节奏平缓、流畅，产生出在快节奏生活中的人们暗自向往的缓冲因素。不要以纯艺术的角度去欣赏它，不然,也许不经意间你在它身上看到某位音乐大师的影子，抑或没有找到曾让你心动的旋律而心存厌拒。舒压音乐需要大众化，并且有物理、生理的作用妙用其中。我们要做的唯有放松，音乐飘飘由耳入心,畅溢全身，在我们的血脉中轻快奔流，如略带寒意的春水融化浮冰，通畅的河岸，侵润着人们冰冻已久的心灵。
New Age composer John Adorney began studying music at age nine -- although his first instrument was the cello, within two years he'd also acquired a guitar, profoundly influenced by the Beatles and the British Invasion they launched. He additionally learned the piano, and went on to study classical music at the University of Connecticut; a tenure with an ethnic dance troupe followed before Adorney relocated to Denver during the late 1970s, becoming a fixture of the local folk circuit. He next moved to Los Angeles, teaching music at a school for disabled children before founding his own music therapy practice; by the 1990s Adorney was additionally composing New Age-influenced instrumental material, eventually landing three pieces on the 1998 Domo compilation Reflections. The exposure brought him to the attention of the EverSound label, and later that same year Adorney issued his debut LP, Beckoning. Other Shore appeared in late summer 2001.
