Yoruba Records is proud to welcome back Toto Chiavetta with our latest release, Nagnu Jubo (Remixes). This follow up to the debut album, Impermanence, includes remixes by Osunlade as well as new and unreleased work from Toto himself. Kicking off the A-side is the Yoruba Soul remix of Nagnu Jubo – a deep and smooth groove rich in personality. The warm chords reel you in as the underlying rhythm engages and inspires. The A-side closes with the instrumental – retaining the warmth of the original without the track’s signature chant. On the flip side is a new, unreleased version of Minds. Originally appearing on Impermanence, this version is decidedly more floor focused. A 303-style bassline keeps this moving right along as percussive elements add texture and drive to this forward thinking dance tune. Finally, closing out this release is Hunters, a track which showcases Toto’s dark and techy side. This expressive tune is ripe with emotion and will have discerning listeners locked in introspection while their feet do work on the floors below them.

Moodymann creates innovative soul funky music with deep 70s inspiration. The vocals are simply outstanding. A step back in time, 50 years ago! Superb. jef37
