Ororo was a mid-1990s Eurodance project that left a bold impression on the scene by transforming alternative rock into high-energy dancefloor anthems. Known primarily for their unforgettable cover of "Zombie" by The Cranberries, Ororo took a globally recognized rock ballad and reimagined it with pounding beats, synth-driven textures, and an unmistakable Eurodance pulse. Released in 1995, the “Tribal Pursuit” mix of “Zombie” became a club favorite, offering a daring, genre-blending twist that resonated with dance music fans across Europe.
Building on that momentum, Ororo followed up with a Eurodance version of another Cranberries classic, “Ode to My Family.” The “Happy Time Mix” brought the same driving energy and uplifting production style, further showcasing Ororo’s ability to reinvent emotional rock tracks through the lens of electronic dance music.
While the project remains shrouded in mystery, with little public information about its members or origins, Ororo’s work stands as a fascinating snapshot of 90s dance culture—a time when boundaries between genres blurred, and creativity thrived.
To this day, Ororo is remembered as a bold and imaginative act in Eurodance history, turning heartfelt lyrics into euphoric, beat-driven expressions of rhythm and reinvention.
