Deriving her name as a tribute to the legendary jazz drummer Ornette Coleman, Paris-based Italian-French singer/songwriter, composer and pianist Ornette was initially known for playing piano for Alain Bashung and acting for Jacques Rivette. Ornette stepped out into the spotlight as a vocalist with 2012’s Crazy, which featured album title track “Crazy,'” a track went viral when electronic act Nôze remixed it.

Since then the Italian-French artist has collaborated with Mike Ladd, The Toxic Avenger, Joris Delacroix, Brigette, Make The Girl Dance, Fink, Julien Lourau, Arthur H. and Micky Green on material released through Get Physical, Discograph, Barclay, Tôt ou Tard, Polydor, Way of House and others. She also went on to release two more full-length records, 2019’s Ornette New Remixes and 2021’s Aishiteru.

2021’s Aishiteru featured “Such A Game,” a slow-burning and atmospheric trip-hop-meets-dream pop tune built around glistening keys, thumping boom bap-like beats, a sinuous bass line paired with the Italian-French artist’s expressive delivery. Recently Don Turi remixed “Such A Game,” turning the slow-burning pop into a sultry, Octo Octa-like deep techno/house banger that pairs the Italian-French artist’s expressive delivery with skittering, tweeter and roofer rattling thump, and glistening synth arpeggios.
