/ Asahi/Guangzhou, March 24, 2022 -- Mingshi Healing Music Studio, a subsidiary of Universal Music, the world's largest record company, held a sleep concert that you can listen to lying down. Different from the traditional classical concert, this innovative music performance combined with immersive theater and piano + electronic synthesizer allowed the audience to feel the music completely and open their mind and body in the most relaxed state.
The founder and artistic director of "Mingshi Healing Music Workshop", Zhang Kangming, is a well-known music producer in China. He is not only the regular composer of many movies, games and many star and idol groups, but also holds the NGH International Hypnotist course certification in music healing. His albums of healing and sleep aid music have been listened to by millions online.
The concept of musical healing has only been formally proposed in the last two years. Although as early as a thousand years ago, Buddhist meditation has the concept of music practice, but what kind of music can achieve the effect of healing, and what kind of healing range can be covered by music healing? These questions have only been answered in recent years with concrete data from scientific papers. Research has shown that music of about 60 beats per minute causes the brain to synchronize with alpha brainwave beats (frequencies ranging from 8-14 Hz or cycles per second). This alpha wave is something that exists when we are relaxed and conscious, so healing with music can alter brain function to the same extent as drug therapy.
In early 2022, a sleep health app called Phantom Rest was launched. Based on the common understanding of music healing, the company entered into a deep strategic cooperation agreement with Universal Music when it was founded. Universal Music not only opens its music library to Fantasy, but also seeks excellent healing music producers from all over the world to help Fantasy create music with themes such as sleep aid, stress relief and focus. Zhang Kangming is one of them.
The goal of phantom rest is to improve the mental sub-health of modern people through scientific methods, and improving sleep is the first entry point. According to the China Sleep Report 2022 survey by CCTV, Chinese people fall asleep two hours later and sleep length has decreased by about 1.5 hours in the past decade. Only 35 percent of them can sleep for eight hours a day, and about 15 percent have sleep disorders requiring treatment. The vast majority of sleep problems are related to mental sub-health, and poor sleep further affects physical and mental health, so as to form a vicious cycle.
Therefore, Fantasy Technology actively cooperated with Universal Music Group and the Psychological Research Center of Tsinghua University, hoping to combine scientific research data and world-class composers to provide users with a complete sleep solution.
At present, Phanyu is striving to build a professional music healing mental health platform for users, including music library suitable for sleep, relaxation, meditation, concentration and other different scenes to listen to, as well as customized music healing programs based on users' psychological scales. Phantom will actively promote the latest science and technology to solve the increasingly common mental sub-health phenomenon, improve human life happiness index and quality of life, and lead a healthy future.
