Career
Genji Sirasi, who was a former member of Groove Collective, formed his own musical ensemble, putting together former Groove Collective members, Itaal Shur, Nicole Willis, Mark Anthony Jones, Gordon "Nappy G" Clay and Jonathan Maron. The group Repercussions would not have the same impact as Groove Collective, but the musical style was basically identical.
The group was signed to Warner Bros. records, and in 1995 released their debut album Earth and Heaven, (which peaked somewhat moderately well on Billboard urban charts).
They later released a second album on Pony Canyon (released only in Japan for unknown reasons) titled "Charmed Life".[3] Several members from the first album parted ways with the group, and new members, vocalist Lysa "Aya" Treiner, guitarist Andy Faranda, and DJ Daniel Wyatt joined the group. After the release of this album, the group disbanded.[4]

Robbins, David Sprague - 1997 REPERCUSSIONS Earth and Heaven (Warner Bros.) 1995 Born out of weekly sessions at New York's influential floating acid-jazz club Giant Step. ...Much of the Groove Collective's extensive rhythm section — Clay, bassist Jonathan Maron and drummer Genji Siraisi — join guitarist Andy Faranda and conga player Daniel Wyatt to back soul diva Nicole Willis in Repercussions. Although a different horn section appears on several cuts, by and large Earth and Heaven lacks the muscle, grit and energy of the Groove Collective album; it's not much more than an ordinary retro-'70s soul record.
