About Me



Band Bio:

Audio Buddha is a trinity of musicians who work together with the collective intention of immersing in and exploring the medium of music to access the divine and embody it in performance. Weaving together the elements of synthesized trance music, violin and voice, a tapestry of sound emerges that is dynamic, unique and profound. The music ranges from driving trance to melodic ambient, creating the space for all things to emerge. Though the project of audio buddha has been active for five years through the work of founding member steve brisk, the present incarnation of keyboardist Brisk, violinist Nathaniel Mahlberg and vocalist Ishtar is new within the year. Ishtar is a classically trained vocalist who found a dear friend and deep reflection in the companionship of Steve Brisk, a self-proclaimed "old-school punk" with extensive classical training of his own. Nathaniel Mahlberg is a classically trained violinist who offered his brilliance to the project, completing the perfect triad. This new group presents Audio Buddha, tranceformative musical experience, as our pleasure and our gift.

Statement of Intent:

Art is a life process - there is no fragmentation between the different states or manifestations of art, they are UNI-versal, of one. If art is a response to stimulated emotion or energy, then painting leads to music leads to word leads to lovemaking leads to dance - a life cycle, not a food chain. music is a form of love - music is a way of lovemaking. To make material into rhythm, to make flesh into song, to bring bones into dance, this is to finally finally be free of a fight with time and fly in ecstatic catastrophe, in euphoric euphony, to fly, fly, fly through our moments together. We seek the sensitivity to transduce the transcendent. from the eternal within there emanates a pulsation of life that seeks to transcend the limitations of linearity and move into fusion with divine absolute. Therein lies the alchemical potential, the joy inherent in engaging in the musical aspect of existence and the drive to offer the gift that will potentially enliven people out of the trap of mentality into full spectrum expression and experience of being. Every animal has its particular prayer, and this is ours.
