With a vital, evocative set of covers and original material, Los Angeles-based ensemble Orgone brought new attention to the funk gospeler and pack band circuits when they launched their recording life history with Ubiquity Records in the mid to late 2000s. Orgone's effectual hosts a myriad groove-oriented styles, including merely not limited to deep funk, '60s Memphis soul/blues, Fela-inspired Afro-beat, hip-hop, Latin jazz, and electronic dance and house. Many of the band's musicians started playacting together in the early '90s, just Orgone did not germinate into a tightly knit ensemble until the end of the decade. The core card of the dance band finally came to consist of Sergio Rios (guitar), Dan Hastie (Rhodes, clavinet, Hammond B-3 reed organ), Sean O'Shea (drums), Ethan Phillips (bass), Stewart Killen (various percussion), Darren Cardoza (trombone), Devin Williams (trumpet), and Joel Bowers (sax). Other than working alive jam roger Sessions, Orgone in the main backed rap acts of the Apostles on go or in the studio until around 2001 when bandmembers adage vocaliser Fanny Franklin perform with L.A.-based hip-hop orchestra Dakah. With Franklin added to the mix, the funk jam band was more bore to make its own recordings, cutting unitary of their earlier songs, a cover of the Beginning of the End's '70s funk murder "Low-down Nassau," for Ubiquity compilation Rewind! 4 (2004). While Orgone served as the onstage banding for the likes of Little Brother, the Pharcyde, Pharoahe Monch, and Tone-Loc, Ubiquity issued their I Get Lifted 12" and The Duck Gravy 7" in spring 2007. All of these singles appeared on their debut album, The Killion Floor, released later that October.
