Following the vinyl release of Delfonic's reworks of Roy Ayers tracks
taken from the BBE Music compilation Roy Ayers-Virgin Ubiquity, it's now
Osunlade's turn to add his production and remix enchantment to the
music of the master craftsman with these remixes of Brand New Feeling.
Featuring the exceptional vocal talents of Merry Clayton, perhaps best
known for her blistering performance on the Rolling Stones' Gimme
Shelter and her own Webster Lewis penned hit Emotion, alongside Jazz
vocalist and Earth, Wind & Fire, Ubiquity and Harvey Mason
collaborator Silvia Cox, Osunlade's Yoruba Soul remixes have added new
dimensions to this track.
Hailing from St Louis, USA Osunlade's CV includes writing music for
Sesame Street to working with and producing artists as varied as Patti
Labelle, Freddie Jackson, Eric Benet, Martha Wash, Salif Keita, Nadirah
Shakoor and Cesaria Evora. He started the Yoruba Soul project and label
after his move to New York because of 'the continued need to create the
music I wanted' and it is this musical freedom that has made him one of
the most distinctive music makers, producers, DJs and remixers around
today.
Brand New Feeling is released as a vinyl EP featuring two tracks, the
Yoruba Soul Mix Parts 1 & 2 with a digital release also featuring
instrumentals of both mixes.
Tracklist:
1. Brand New Feeling (Yoruba Soul Mix Part 1)
2. Brand New Feeling (Yoruba Soul Mix Part 2)
3. Brand New Feeling (Yoruba Soul Mix Part 2 Edit)
