Espresso is a healthier alternative to caffeine that claims to deliver express relief from tiredness. It consists of a 30-minute music programme that is said to improve your level of alertness for up to 5 hours. It has been designed in accordance with recent research in neuroscience and music psychology, and in a style that is both contemporary and accessible to its target audience.
The music is written in four phases. You will not necessarily be able to tell when one stops and the next begins, but each has a distinct purpose.
PHASE ONE: Engage the listener by reflecting his/her present surroundings - an office or a busy environment. Move their state of consciousness into a deeply relaxed state.
PHASE TWO: Moving into the open, lead the listener into a state of consciousness associated with regeneration, holding him/her there suspended, floating.
PHASE THREE: Using musical onomatopoeia to represent re-birth or dawn, 'lift' the listener into a normal waking state, (thus avoiding any groggy feeling).
PHASE FOUR: Establish a state of alertness - the music makes particular reference to alerting sound icons - cockerels, audible signals and jingles.
It is envisaged that Espresso could be used when needed at the workplace or at home, where factors such as a late night or international travel has made the individual particularly drowsy. Fergus Rougier, the producer of Espresso comments:
"There is so much coffee you can drink and with the proliferation of mobile computing devices and mobile phones, there has never been a better time for music to be considered as a serious and accessible life-tool.
Research now shows that music can do way more than just relax and Espresso is to our knowledge the first attempt to create a modern soundtrack that is specifically designed to enhance performance. We see it coming into its own in combating the effects of hard partying, long work hours and foreign travel."
