Pyrography is the self proclaimed 'last house album' from Yoruba head Osunlade. Incorporating the signature Yoruba style, Pyrography effortlessly bridges the gap between electronic and organic. Braced with more vocal tracks than previous house albums, it showcases the musical diversity of label, taking in the recent underground monster 'Idiocyncracy', the infectious ‘Envision’ and the unmistakable Yoruba chant of ‘Ser Al Santisimo’. Along with the stunning cover art, each track is accompanied by an artwork piece from renowned Pyrography artist Scott Marr making this a must for followers of the Yoruba label.
