Osunlade – What Pho – (Yoruba)

And breathe. Osunlade is in the house with his special brand of percussion driven music for the heart, the mind, the body, the feet and the soul. ‘What Pho’ featuring Han Litz is a piano groove with cherry on willow beats and a trilling flute melody that would charm the birds out of the skies. ‘Jus Anuda Groove’ is a short and sweet soulful interlude, whilst ‘Schavanna’ is a psychedelic afro electric excursion with a township twist. ‘The Waiting Game’ featuring Rainy Payne will have fans of soulful spoken word tracks a la Vanessa Daou and Ursula Rucker in raptures. Music for people who appreciate how to listen and dance to the spaces in between the notes.
