"WITCHES, BROKE" ORMO & MR. LEG SPLIT TAPE NOW AVAILABLE COMES WITH CD
Mr. Leg and Ormo present two sides (40+ minutes) of raw sample life force. "Witches, Broke" finds Ormo working solely from the sp505 and Mr. leg the akai s20. The two sides are as different and fundamentally similar as the machines they were produced on. Moments of utter paranoia and crushing sarcasm sprinkle the tape throughout. To hear samples of both sides of this tape visit the free music page.

ORMO PRODUCES SUBSTANDARD REMIX
Ormo produced a remix of the B. Dolan song "One Breath Left" as part of a sports game for musicians. He tried so hard but alas he didnt use enough synth pads, reverb, or midi harmonicas. Maybe next time he'll do the right thing. Either way you can listen to his poor remix on the free music page.
