The Geminiac's Story
The Geminiac is Deron Reynolds. Deron Reynolds is a producer, keyboardist, singer-songwriter with a diverse background in nearly every musical genre. A classically trained pianist since age 5, he taught himself to play blues and jazz, and has participated in musical projects ranging from world music to experimental electronica to hardcore rock. His current solo project is entitled "The Geminiac, and the various styles and mood swings in this music definitely reflect his Gemini persona.
Originally from Seattle, WA, Deron has been working professionally in Osaka, Japan for about 7 years now. As a songwriter and arranger, Deron has published songwriting credits on the albums of several major Japanese music stars like Rina Aiuchi and Aika Ohno. As a producer, he has made everything from background DVD music, to drama soundtracks at his home studio, Studio Deez, in Osaka, using an arsenal of the latest soft-synths and samplers with Pro-Tools for a unique sound sure to capture your imagination. He releases his works and creates music via his company and indies label, Blue Orb Productions.
Deron currently continues The Geminiac project while helping friends echostream on keyboard.
Other projects include the infamous Buddhaphonic with Tony Grund of echostream.
You know what to do with that belly. Another new project I'm working on is with Tomo of Heaven's Factory and echostream called Bundle of Wire.
Yet again another sultry new project that I'm very "excited" about is the infamous Starporn .
Please go to the official website, www.thegeminiac.com , if you want to know more about the project or get the latest updates.
