Louie Vega, Josh Milan in Osibisa Afrobeat Collaboration
Osibisa 'Yo Luv Is Betta' - The Stellar Celebration Mix & Expansions NYC Dub.
In their 50th anniversary year, pioneering godfathers of Afro-beat, Osibisa reached out to global icon, Louie Vega, to bring a fresh collaboration to their new release, 'Yo Luv Is Betta', taken from their 2021 studio album 'New Dawn'. Vega instantly pulled in right-hand-man, Josh Milan (keyboardist and co-remixer) and together they brought justice to this mighty track, with The Stellar Celebration Mix & Expansions NYC Dub release coming 11 Feb 2022 on Vega Records.
Written by Osibisa front man, Gregg Kofi Brown, the track was inspired by the passing of Afrobeat legendary drummer, Tony Allen, and features vocals from Ghanaian vocalist, Ssue. Steeped in voluptuously rich vocals, 'Yo Luv Is Betta' serves-up a delicious melodic cocktail of afro-beats, flecked with jazz undertones and big-band instrumentals. The remix combines a joy-ride of Afrobeat and Afro / Brazilian house beats & bass groove, sparkled with scintillating sitars, re-arranged horn stabs and the metal tines of a Fender Rhodes.
The Stellar Celebration mix and the Expansions NYC Dub is a classic Vega/Milan hot biscuit for dancers worldwide.
