Formed in 1994, Orphx is a Canadian music due made up of Richard Oddie and Christina Sealey active in the international techno, industrial and experimental music scenes. They have performed throughout Europe and North America and have numerous releases on CD, vinyl and cassette through independent music labels such as Sonic Groove, Hands Productions, Hymen Records and Malignant Records. While earlier releases were identified with the European "rhythmic noise" scene, their more recent work on the Sonic Groove label has gained the attention of techno fans and DJs, leading to performances at high profile venues such as Berghain and Mutek, and remix work for artists such as Perc, Oscar Mulero and Traversable Wormhole.

Before their current distribution labels, the music of Orphx was distributed through the cassette label, Xcreteria. Xcreteria eventually became Third Force.

Trivia

  • Initially called Oriphix, the name of the group was changed shortly after their first cassette release to Orphx.
