Ora Iso has been played on NTS in shows including Samuel Kerridge, featured first on 15 April 2018. Songs played include Pleasure Bites, Digital Crutch and Dead Riot.

Ora Iso is a sullen two piece of off-axis harmonies, industrial/post-punk/noise percussion thrown back and forth between a guitar, Wurlitzer, vocals and samples. Pieces begin in abstraction, encounter semblances of melody, then disseminate into fragments. Disassociated and lonely the sounds project their missed connection with the world at large. It all comes together as a glorious noise, and Bathcat, the band's first album released in 2014, captures the essence of their nature.

The group formed with a shared affinity for challenging pieces. Kathleen Malay, born in Indonesia and a recent transplant to New York via Australia, is a classically trained pianist who found her true calling once she met Jason Kudo, a guitarist best known for his work in Modra in 2012. Bathcat was recorded with the deft influence of Lary Seven, a fixture on the New York experimental scene since the 70's, who has worked with such artists as Tony Conrad, Tom Verlaine, Foetus and Jarboe.
