Yoruba Records is honoured to bring to you the incomparable Lady Alma. Coming from the roots of that Philly soul sound, she quickly became synonymous with house music. Her powerful voice and empowering lyrics lift generations to fully understand self-worth and self-love. Osunlade is a force within the foundation of house music. Born at the intersection of funk, jazz, blues and rock n roll, he injected new sounds into house with his pristine production and respect for the harmonizing roots of all music. These two dynamic souls join forces in an explosive song. ‘It’s House Music’ takes us back to a time when one would stand in the alley of the warehouse district in sub-zero weather to hear the latest grooves of the night, dancing till dawn and emerging only for breakfast and a bed. ‘It’s House Music’ will have you dancing all night long with its infectious hook and anthem to house music itself. The Feel It Mix transports the listener straight to the gospel roots of soul music. This iconic St. Louis sound incorporates layers of funky bass lines, Sunday morning hand claps and the good ole' church organ, proving that indeed house is a spiritual thing on the dance floor. Lady Alma's soul stirring powerhouse vocal perfectly marries the mood and movement of this multidimensional sonic offering. This mix will have the world passing the plate from the dance floors of Chicago, Detroit, New York and Philly to the shores of Cape Town and Nigeria. ‘It’s House Music’ is simply a song that moves the body and connects souls to the diasporic journey of music. Karizma adopts his Kaytronik guise to take up remix duties with his Raw Dub Mix, taking the track into deep late night territory, accentuated perfectly by Lady Alma’s pristine vocals. Wolf + Lamb’s Sanctuary Remix tops the package off with their own take on ‘It’s House Music’; a percussive, groove laden ode to the original.
