About the Artist
Born in 1957 in a South Philadelphia neighborhood filled with a history of jazz guitarists from 1920's legend Eddie Lang to contemporary jazz guitar legend Pat Martino, Johnnie studied privately as a young man with Dennis Sandole, Joe Sgro, and Pat Martino. Also during that time he studied composition at Rutgers University while doing local club dates and recording sessions at Alpha recording studio for Philly World Records and gigs in Atlantic City.
In 1984, Johnnie relocated to Los Angeles where he has been musically active in writing, recording, scoring, performing, and sound designing for TV, films, and recordings. John has provided sound design for TV animation shows including
The Avengers, Alvin & The Chipmunks, The New Archies, Digimon, and V. R. Troopers & X-Men, among many others. Live action TV credits include Power Rangers, The New Captain Kangaroo Show, and The New Mr Bill Show. Film credits include Dirty Dancing, The Hurricane, Entrapment, In Too Deep, and Wonder Boys. In 2000, Johnnie was awarded "Best Sound Design" at the International Monitor Awards in LA.
Johnnie has recorded with some of today's leading contemporary improvisors including Alex Acuña, Bennie Maupin, Vinny Golia, Wadada Leo Smith, Billy Drewes, Oscar Brashear, Andy Laster, Kermit Driscoll, Sherman Ferguson, Luis Conte, Alphonso Johnson, Delmar Brown, and Pat Martino. His previous releases include Free Exchange & Goin' Public on Four Winds and Searching Souls on 9 Winds.
Product Description
ToneScience's second release, Eight Shorts in Search of David Lynch, by guitarist/composer/sound designer Johnnie Valentino features eight sound beds custom-designed by Valentino that are used as springboards for improvisations by small groups that include musicians Erik Friedlander, Vinny Golia, Russ Johnson, Randy Jones, Elissa Lala, Mick Rossi, and Mike Sarin.
Johnnie created eight multi-layered sound beds that were subsequently used for spontaneous interaction with live improvising musicians. He considers the resulting pieces "short stories or essays or short films."
Titling the collection Eight Shorts in Search of David Lynch is not to imply any correspondence to specific films, but to indicate the pieces' affinity to Lynch's outlook on sound and sound design and to highlight their bizarre twists and turns that are sonically reminiscent of the of Lynch's movies.
