After nearly a decade producing mostly mainstream artists in LA, Osunlade headed East, took a two-year spiritual sabbatical and launched Yoruba Records.

Early on, he established two rules: 1) only sign artists willing to be mentored, and 2) only release works you believe in.

In today´s podcast with Jo Youle, he explains how these artists have become his family and he only starts to release records after roughly four years and he really gets to know people.

He created five albums in the pandemic and is in the process of putting this music out after a hugely prolific spell whilst the world slowed down.

Taking time out to become ordained as a Yorubian Priest also had a huge impact on his sound.

He moved to NYC, went to a lot of house parties in the late 90´s and crafted a more folklore focussed style of electronic music we hear in his sets today.
