About this release

Artists Orlando Julius
Release Date 01-01-2014
Cat. No. HC27RP
Format 12" 180g Vinyl
Style Afro Disco, Funk, Highlife, Afro Soul

Disco Hi-Life brings Orlando Julius’s saxophone and vocals into a four-track meeting of highlife, soul, disco and funk. Recorded with musicians including singer Dora Ifudu Avery, bassist Kenneth Okulolo and trumpeter Tunde Williams, the sessions connect Lagos with the American Star Studio in West Virginia. The title track’s Yoruba vocal sits alongside the English-language “Children Of The World”, with “Awade” and “Love Peace & Happiness” completing the programme. Long arrangements leave room for the ensemble’s rhythmic interplay and horn lines. Hot Casa Records’ remastered reissue presents the complete four-track vinyl sequence on a single 180g LP.

Format: 180g Vinyl LP, remastered reissue
Label: Hot Casa Records
Catalogue number: HC27RP
