Roy Orb D.MT.-Doctor of Metaphysical Healing

As the title of his debut cassette on Moon Glyph suggests, Roy Orb D.MT. is here to soothe your metaphysical ills. Prescribing choice tones from his medicine cabinet of vintage synths, the good doctor is prepared to vanquish anything from wear and tear incurred from centuries of transmorgification to your everyday existential jitters. You can listen to "Breathing" below. Doctor of Metaphysical Healing is available over the counter at Twin Cities record stores or online via Moon Glyph.

Roy Orb D.MT. - "Breathing" by Moon Glyph

From Moon Glyph:

With his first Moon Glyph release, Roy Orb D.MT. beckons you to a peaceful, pleasurable synthetic journey. A certified practitioner with countless years of metaphysical therapy, Roy gives great attention to the hues and textures he prescribes, conjuring sonic salves to balance body and soul alike. Close your eyes, breathe deeply and drift away as Oberheim soundwaves carry you to realms of health and wholeness heretofore unimagined. Admittedly no sorcerer, but certainly no common “doctor”, Roy Orb D.MT. materializes healing tones for ailing minds.
