Aor

AOR (Adult-Oriented Rock) is a form of mainstream rock music that was popularized in the late 1970s and early 1980s. AOR is characterized by its melodic, radio-friendly sound and its emphasis on vocal harmonies. It typically features electric guitars, keyboards, and synthesizers and is often characterized by its lush production. AOR is often seen as a bridge between classic rock and pop music, incorporating elements of both genres. Its popularity peaked in the mid-1980s and has since waned. The genre is still alive and well today, however, with many bands continuing to produce music in the AOR style.
