Having just passed the decatennial year in 2008 oRSo is still making as much music as possible with every passing year. The newest record is "ask your neighbor" on contraphinic records

The new all instrumental super group record is in the mixing stage(possibly titled oRSo 9) and the kids record is starting to make some head way in the race. Still in the back of the pack is the little know first egg movie. Only shown twice ever once in sf and once in chicago. This film written, directed and created by oRSo with a fifteen person orsorchestral soundtrack is as yet unreleased. Touring has not been possible for several years. The hope is still there but the gigs still happen in chicago every few months often with a totally different line up of binto family members.
Hi there! It seems I just have no chance over here to keep up with album releases. I just realized that I only own your first two albums and the Califone/Orso-EP. I tried on your label-website but I..m not sure where to get your other albums - it looks as if they basically offered mp3 downloads. Well, I..d prefer vinyl anyway but if you have a CD of your latest works, please let me know. Yours (a true admirer) Rainer
