Raw & Direct by Orgone
Raw & Direct captures Orgōne playing from the gut and in the moment. The first official collection of live performances catches the band in top form with songs honed on the road, delivering the excitement of their touring show to the studio in a way that is both intimate and fiery.
Recorded straight to tape at KillionSound and Tropico Union Studios in Los Angeles, California, the songs are muscular, honest, and soulful. Orgōne's reputation as an incendiary live experience is laid out on the line in this collection with crushing instrumentals and iconic vocal performances from Adryon de León and Terin Ector.

Orgone is an 8-piece soul machine driven by Dan Hastie and Sergio Rios, once two kids from the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles united by a hunger for raw soul recordings. Drawing on their love of Funkadelic, Santana, Muscle Shoals, and all things Stax, the duo sought to create the band that, if they were to hear for the first time, would be their instant favorite.
