Buckyball Music was founded by musicians seeking to re-align the relationship between the artist and the music 'business'. The ever-changing platform of how music is enjoyed by listeners has resulted in regularly re-inventing ourselves and our services, and following the ideas and inspiration of visionary humanist Buckminster Fuller. One of Buckyball Music’s accomplishments is connecting music with science in entertaining and enlightening performances.

Buckyball Music is a music company that is interested in many facets of the music industry:

- As a record label, Buckyball Music offers 30 releases of both traditional and progressive jazz, jazz-rock, avant-garde, classical and   classical crossover recordings featuring some of the most innovative musicians around. Including nine artists, most are released as CD and digital downloads, with some exclusively in digital format.

- As a music service company, Buckyball Music offers pre- and post-production recording and editing services.

Buckyball Music has launched the service Voice Over Mac Access ("VOMA") that is dedicated to assisting visually impaired composers in setting up their Mac computers with the screen reader VoiceOver. This is in part geared towards using music software like ProTools, Logic X and GarageBand, but is also directed to anyone who needs assistance with operating the screen reader.
