We thank all of you that have bought the album and those who have made every effort to spread the word of this project. For everyone that still has an interest in this project, and would like to contribute to help all those still suffering in Touhoku, please remember that you only have 3 more days to buy it. The artists have given up their music royalty free for nearly half a year to fully contribute all money made to the Japan Red Cross, and they should all be applauded for being so generous in a business world of music that is often more cutthroat and competitive. So please, if you have been thinking about it or simply forgot about it or are now simply inspired to do it, go to: http://www.blueorbproductions.net and please buy this amazing album. Thank you all for your support of Japan and the Independent Music scene of Japan.

We are excited about 2011, especially about the first ever video by The Geminiac coming out soon and lots of other musical and web-based projects. Thank you all! And as usual, we have a gift to give. You can check out the 42 (!) new videos uploaded on The Geminiac's youtube channel: www.youtube.com/thegeminiac Look for the two playlists on the right. The first is tons of video from when Deron was playing at a top notch resort hotel in Fukuyama. The other are a few highlight songs from a Christmas Party last December. Enjoy! And sorry for the lateness of our card this year. Since Deron's Hotel gig took up the end of the year up to January 3rd we didn't have as much time as usual to get it out earlier. Love and thanks to you all!]]> http://www.blueorbproductions.net/thegeminiac/2011/01/happy_new_year_from_deron_and.html http://www.blueorbproductions.net/thegeminiac/2011/01/happy_new_year_from_deron_and.html News Sun, 16 Jan 2011 19:06:59 +0900 The details: BEAT PERSUASION'S FIRST LIVE http://www.myspace.com/beatpersuasion at the HEAD SPACE EVENT http://www.headspace.jp/headspace/en/2010/03/31/headspace/ Saturday, April 17th 7:30 start (doors open at 7:00) @ CAFE ABSINTHE http://www.cafeabsinthe.jp/ 1,500 yen (includes one drink) All proceeds go to support local Osaka Music and Art! ]]> http://www.blueorbproductions.net/thegeminiac/2010/04/beat_persuasions_first_live_he.html http://www.blueorbproductions.net/thegeminiac/2010/04/beat_persuasions_first_live_he.html News Sun, 11 Apr 2010 23:30:35 +0900 http://www.hatsukame.co.jp/gandw/ [Sorry, this website is only in Japanese] 2000 yen (with 1/drink) Families welcome.

As always, we aspire to help inspire that hope in all of you. If this last decade has taught us anything, it's that we cannot just wait for others to bring us hope. It is always easier to complain about what other people aren't doing, but be strong and be active, for the TEENS are upon us. And for one glorious decade, we all get to be teenagers again. Happy Holidays, Happy New Year, Happy New Decade and Love, Deron Reynolds and Yoko Nakajima of BLUE ORB PRODUCTIONS P.S. For those who haven't heard, Yoko and I are now engaged.

For many, there was much pain and misfortune that affected us, and I personally went through some personal trials and hardships this year that have transformed my life, but there are signs for hope in this new year. A song that I hope will remind us all of the will and personal responsibility we will all share to make this a truly new year. Things should never come undone again. Love and Peace to you all in this year of the Bull. Let us rage on into the brave new future. ----- COME UNDONE: I wrote this song during my stay with the wonderful band echostream, and it was originally recorded as a demo for echostream but never got released. I've sat on in it for years now always trying to find somebody to sing it. In the end, I finally broke down and let my own voice tell the story. Let the lyrics hit you as they may. All I will say is, things in life do come undone. So much around us has come undone, and everyone is ready to start pointing fingers and blaming. But who was it that allowed things to get so far? Think hard, and think deep.... the truth is, you are in control of your own destiny, and you alone control the fibers that keep the universal love and happiness that we need to keep it all together. Let us never let things come undone again. So long gone Can't ever look back again Back on the run, God what have I done? Still seeking hope to medicate my pain I think of things that I've done Sins of the past still proving me wrong How'd it all come so undone? Can't someone, reach out to me? But they all, stare right through me So hard to resist, So hard to lay down your fears A dirty lie, polluting dirty minds We strive so hard to make the truth our own Can't help the things that I've done Hoping the past will prove me wrong How'd it all come so undone? Smoking guns, hide away Give a smile, for today is ..... Try hard to rest Too scared to close my eyes Story inside, always makes me cry I hope for strength to show you all someday I think of things that I've I've done Sins of the past still proving me wrong How'd it all come so undone? Can't anyone, look inside me? Can't you see, something's dying? ]]> http://www.blueorbproductions.net/thegeminiac/2009/01/a_happy_new_year.html http://www.blueorbproductions.net/thegeminiac/2009/01/a_happy_new_year.html News Thu, 01 Jan 2009 15:26:51 +0900 http://www.coventgarden-jp.com/]]> http://www.blueorbproductions.net/thegeminiac/2008/12/inner_sky_featuring_the_goodma.html http://www.blueorbproductions.net/thegeminiac/2008/12/inner_sky_featuring_the_goodma.html News Wed, 10 Dec 2008 23:04:40 +0900 Well, its a three day weekend here in Japan.
