David Murray Gwotet Osunlade Mixes
- Words: Derek Grey
- Label: 3D Family
- XLR8R Rating: /10
Already a staple in the sets of Louie Vega and Ron Trent, Osunlade scores a major hit with his superb remix of NY free-jazz legend David Murray. The veteran saxophone master-whose catalog includes dozens of albums on Black Saint, HatArt, and other labels-gets a reverent Afrohouse treatment. Both the Osunlade Yoruba Soul house mix and Alex Zul's Lagos Nigeria rub highlight a master in his prime with chant vocals, Murray's sax artistry and the remixers' programming talents in perfect harmony. An immensely important single.
