About Me

The Origins of Buddhaphonic
Buddhaphonic is the physical representation of music in our world by producers Tony Grund and Deron Reynolds. Originally this tag-team fought valliantly in the battlefields of Japanese pop, making tracks for singer-songwriter Aika Ohno and dance pop sensation Rina Aiuchi to name a few. But it was their original tracks that gave them inner peace and satisfaction with their place in the universe. The songs are a strange collaboration of sound: with the funky, bluesy and sometimes jazzy keyboards of Deron and Tony's inclination for propulsive beats and strange sounds. No genre can truly sum up their musical style: is it electronic-blues? Funky-hip hop? Jazzy techno? The true answer, alas, may never be known in this world.
The Many Ways to Enlightenment
Currently, Deron continues his adventures in Japan with his solo music project The Geminiac while Tony continues the fight for musical freedom in New York city with the bands echostream and unknown frequency . One may also find lots of interesting information about either of these beings at www.thegeminiac.com or at Tony's record label in New York, Force of Change Records . There are many different kinds of music that can help you on the path to Zen contained in any and all of the pages these links take you to. Go out and spread the good word of music to the world, and may you find inner peace and enlightenment on your journeys.
