Thinking Man's
Music at its Finest

About Me

Christopher Munzenrider, AKA The Epitome of Sound has a broad musical backround. Starting with piano when he was 6, he's been involved in the music industry one way or another his entire life. He played drums for Minneapolis, MN based Herofactor, a heavy sound similar to Rage Against the Machine, for 4 years until they broke up in 1998. After that, Christopher went solo with The Epitome of Sound.

The style can be described as soothing, melodic, thinking mans music. TEOS has captured the heart and soul of a moment in time, and composed it into relaxing sounds to get you through your day. The repertoire is quite diverse, ranging from slow and beautiful, to tracks with more of an edge. "I like to think my songs tell stories without the need for lyrics" says Chris about his music. Now, with the peaks and valleys, it's time to sit back, kick up your feet, light one up, relax, and get your groove on...
TEOS is currently shopping for a Record Label. What up?!? Got the hook up, yo?
