"Killer deep house tune from South Africa's KB produced by Osunlade. KB is huge in her native South Africa and was the recent winner at the prestigious SAMA (South African Music Awards) this year. This brand new release is the second release on Yoruba Records (following on from the success of 'El Musica' earlier this year) and includes a serious Yoruba Soul remix by Osunlade -- this will appeal to all lovers of quality house music."

"The album is conceived and compiled by Osunlade for Yoruba Records/Soul Jazz Records. The new album features deep house, African funk, nu soul and jazz, and broken beats from around the world. Featuring members of the Yoruba family of artists -- KB, Nadirah Shakoor, Santos, Djinji Brown alongside similarly-like minded artists from around the world -- Brasil, America, South Africa, Puerto Rico, Africa and more -- this is a revelatory selection of new tracks all exclusively made for this album (including an exclusive new Osunlade track 'Acrylic Venezuela'). The album showcases the wide sound of Yoruba -- Deep, spiritually uplifting music. Many of the artists are well known with deep musical roots -- from KB, a soul/R'nB superstar in South Africa to Djinji Brown, the son of spiritual jazz legend Marion Brown (who joins his son on this track) even down to the Yoruba front-cover artwork being designed by Master at Work Louie Vega's cousin. As well as working with many of the artists featured on this album Osunlade continues to remix and produce for an ever increasing range of artists that include 4 Hero, Salif Keita, Ms Dynamite, Zero 7, Cearia Evora, Incognito, Roy Ayers, John Beltran and many more. Yoruba Records was launched by Osunlade as a means to promote many of his favorite artists and develop what he refers to as his 'ancestral' sound."

"Djinji Brown is the latest artist to be released on Yoruba Records, run by Osunlade and Soul Jazz Records. Hailing from the South Bronx, Djinji Brown mixes his Latin and African dance roots to bring us a heavyweight slice of deep spiritual afro-house and broken-beat. Recorded in Puerto Rico, these four tracks perfectly blend his many influences from the dubbed-out deep house of 'My Beloved' to the spoken voice yoruba Orisha beats of 'Breakout'. Djinji Brown's life has been steeped in music. Djinji's father is Marion Brown, the legendary free-jazz artist who worked alongside artists such as Sun Ra, Archie Shepp and John Coltrane in the 1960s."
