What does this word mean, one might ask, euphonic? From what I gather, it means sounds pleasing to the ear, what better way to characterize music. Euphonic is a part of Baroque Age and I am a part of Baroque Age, so I compose this from a backroom perspective so to speak.
Before I begin, I’ve noticed that the term ‘New Age’ makes quite a number of people cringe these days and I totally understand that reaction, we tend to objurgate things we do not understand, we’re only human and I don’t blame anyone for thinking this way, although I bet Galileo would have some blame to dish around in this regard, but I understand what the term holds in its entirety so the growing discontent does not shake the values we hold dear.
All artworks are created by Euphonic’s in-house art direction team led by Sadiq Yinka and Raymond Okhidievbie, with additions from Codelo’s C/O Ose Adeniyi.
I’ll start with its inception. Euphonic began in the unlikeliest of places; a dream fathomed in a dorm room of an institution notorious for being a killer of dreams, Babcock University. We were just a group of friends with infectious vibes and whenever we came together it turned exponential. Seyi, Tonero, and I, had a day-long discussion about our passions, dreams, values to deeply understand the mission we’d just chosen to embark on and before long, the team began to grow with bright minds who had finally found a space where they could truthfully express their innate selves through human interaction and through their music, to friends patient enough to crave to understand each other, and thus it began, a routine of a couple of conscious niggas getting high, talking philosophically and making music. We underwent a great deal of growth during those times, a pure and organic growth, it should be no mystery that Tonero’s Ajna was a metaphorical description of the birth of Euphonic, an opening of our collective third eye, with nothing but belief in ourselves and the music as our guide.

In our many discussions, we often spoke about building a society where conscious music is welcomed, artistes are more self aware of their craft and the music becomes an extension of themselves. To usher in African music of the highest quality, we recognized that we must give it our all no matter where we found ourselves, great music must be the starting point and we must not compromise on the quality of the music we make, because it exists to serve a greater purpose than getting to the fast life. The sound serves as our call for liberation.
Below are brief summaries of Euphonic’s members:

At the moment this music company is focused on nurturing its organic growth in order to attract a genuine fan base built on love for the sound and the vision that will stand the test of time and be there when push comes to shove.
