Adey Omotade Ęęro : Eeşu Boomkat Product Review: Sep 2 Written By Tribe XX Lab Lagos’ cultural cartographer Adey Omotade makes a striking debut entrance with his lush LP meditation on diasporic experiences between Jo’burg and Berlin, diffused in a sort of Afro-ambient-dance music steeped in polyrhythmic traditions and weft with gently psychoactive texturing.Opening out like some missing link between Dego and Ndagga Rhythm Force, or Emeka Ogboh and 23 Skidoo, ‘Ęęro : Eeşu’ introduces a fully formed artist deftly navigating spiritual and aesthetic spheres in search of his own musical truth. Drawing on his Yoruba heritage and diasporic experiences of life in Paris, Jo’burg, Berlin and Ivory Coast, and deploying a rich palette of hybrid hand-played/programmed drums synced with daring experimental sound design, his four tracks crackle with a live energy that vividly animates the album’s emotive narrative, surely placing Omotade in context of a modern griot.
