Deeper Waters

Afro house and broken beat often border closely on the world of neo-soul, and this 2020 release from Adelaide, Australia on Osunlade’s Yoruba Soul demonstrates the points of overlap gloriously. With extraordinary vocalists including Anthony Mills, Nelson Dialect and the extraordinary Jimetta Rose, and some super original production twists, including throwing in the slithery snare rolls of trap and drill into broken beat drum patterns, it also shows us how creatively fertile these crossover points can be.
