"Smoovalicious Funkngruven"
Orgone (ôr'g_n) n. A universal life force, a cosmic unit of
energy, the creative force in nature. Orgone is also a SoCal
based eight piece funk'n groove ensemble with a sound that's
organic and refreshing, rooted in deep soul, funk, boogaloo,
dj culture, afrobeat and jazz. What separates Orgone from
the today's sonic funkateers is stylistic soul diva Fanny
Franklin, the dynamic centerpiece of the band who first caught
the boys attention while she was performing with Dakah, the
hip-hop orchestra. Orgone lays down modernized Parliament-Meters
old school funkatization with gritty horn riffs, latin percussion
& afrobeat funk that slides through style and dynamic changes
seamlessly and effortlessly, all the while putting their own
mark on whatever groove they take on.
"Nasty, distorted, finger-popping, ass
waggling old-school funk goes head to head with the gloss
of L.A.'s Tower of Power styled horn charts" All Music
"Orgone recalls acts like Fela Kuti,
Trouble Funk, and War, but with a heavy dose of disco, where
the deep groove and diva vocals are so authentic, they could
be samples." The Onion.
