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.  While the musicians began by covering Booker T. & the MGs, The Meters, and other giants of soul, they eventually carved out a sound all their own.  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.  After living and working as session musicians for many years, they were still unable to find a studio that adequately captured their warm, gritty sound, so they decided to make one.  KillionSound Studios was hand-crafted as Orgone’s hub and home studio where they continue to create (including playing on a handful of Grammy-winning songs), rehearse, and record with Rios at the helm as chief engineer and Hastie as co-producer.

By teaming up with fiery soul singer Adryon de León, the band discovered the secret weapon that would take their sound to new heights.  With de León, Hastie on keys, Rios on guitar, and drummer Sam Halterman as the backbone, a deeply-rooted family of LA musicians makes up the rest of Orgone— Dale Jennings, bass, Will Phillips, percussion, Darren Cardoza, trombone, and JJ Kirkpatrick, trumpet.

The band’s never-ending lust for music - with Hastie, also a DJ, as head crate-digger - keeps them passionate about bringing new (and vintage) inspiration into the studio to produce the analog California Soul realness that Orgone stands for.

Orgone’s live show is fueled by appreciation for their ferocious, loyal fans and any and everyone who wants to get fired up, turned on, and sweat until they surrender.  The true voice of Orgone is raw soul and deep funk delivered honestly, always non-GMO and preservative-free.

DEL CORAZON is a brand-new collaboration, dreamt into existence through the joint forces of indigenous singer songwriter Cempoalli (sem-po-AH-lee) and Australian-turned-global songstress, Saritah. Two voices, two guitars, two hearts, one shared vision of spiritual purpose.

Drawing on a combined love of reggae, rocksteady, soul, hip-hop and straight-up good music, Del Corazon sing in both English and Mexican (Spanish/Native), bringing an authentic and inspiring sound that is at once reassuringly familiar and yet strikingly original. Radiant harmonies, acoustic guitars, deep bass and fresh beats.

The songs of Del Corazon traverse the duality of human existence, bringing songs of love and liberation, songs of beauty and of pain. Reflections and celebrations of the journey, and lessons learned along the way. Lyrics that remind the people of what they already know in their hearts. Simple songs for these challenging times.

Having walked very different paths to get to where they stand today, Cempoalli and Saritah meet at the place where music brings people together to uplift, inspire and heal.

As a young man, Cempoalli wandered complex worlds of graffiti, gangs, violence and grief on the streets of Los Angeles.  After these stark realities took the life of his brother, it was the power of music that saved his own. Strongly involved with grassroots movements from an early age, he has since taken the music far and wide throughout “Turtle Island”, performing at urban and reservation community events since 2000.

Saritah, born in Seoul, South Korea, had lived in 3 continents by the time she was 6 months old.  She was then raised in the most isolated city in the world - Perth, Australia - and has since travelled far and wide, bringing the music and the message to stages at many of the planet’s favourite festivals.

Del Corazon bring evolutionary music of the global community. Music beyond borders, boxes and boundaries. Real music. From the Heart.

Look out for the first single, Por Tu Amor, dropping in May 2016!
