阳光流行Sunshine Pop

发源于60年代中期加利福尼亚的阳光流行乐,最主要风格为有着丰富伴奏的歌曲,管旋乐的合奏,以及没有间歇的欢呼三种类型,它通常受一些幻觉音乐的影响,但它的目的并不在于唤起任何在意识上已对药物依赖性减弱后的重新强烈需要;它简单的吸收了热烈而滑稽的幻觉流行的一面,合并产生成为时代的革新(尤其是Phil Spector和Beach Brian Wilson)。

阳光流行通常似乎是更精致也更由于的巴罗克式流行(即不规则,奇怪的流行),尽管它也融入了民谣流行或者Brill Building流行风。阳光流行开始包括Beach Boys,Turtles,Association和爸爸妈妈乐队等;

另一些乐队也在这种风格中取得成功,如Backinghams,Grass Roots和Left Banke,另一些乐队——Saggittarius,Yellow Balloon,Millennium——成为阳光流行乐疯狂的热衷追随者。

Sunshine Pop emerged in the early to mid 1960s as a more upbeat and cheerful style of Pop, with lyrical themes based largely around love. The music itself usually contains close vocal harmonies, clean production, and typical rock/pop instrumentation;

instruments such as flute, harpsichord, and harp are also common in Sunshine Pop. Well known Sunshine Pop artists include: The Association, The Turtles, The 5th Dimension, Harpers Bizarre, The Beach Boys, Lesley Gore, The Mamas & The Papas and Peter, Paul and Mary.
