Vinyl ALAAFIA

Description

Honour's debut album "Àlááfíà" is a musical journey connecting Lagos, London, and New York, intertwining blues, hip-hop, free jazz, ambient, and gospel with Christian mythology and Yoruba folklore. This album is a meditation on life, death, and love, inspired by the unexpected poetic depth of everyday conversations, field recordings, and personal archives. The result is an impressionistic vision that blurs the boundaries between past and present, individual and universal. "Àlááfíà" crafts a gothic landscape filled with overdriven beats, soaring orchestral blasts, and choral bursts, where the physical and spiritual realms commune. The title track, dedicated to the artist's late grandmother, reflects his grief and PTSD experiences, connecting Lagos to London's urban landscape. This vinyl is a must-have for music enthusiasts seeking a profound and emotive listening experience.
