Internationally celebrated producer and Yoruba Records founder Osunlade delivers an extraordinary reinterpretation of ‘Wake Up’ by RAH & The Ruffcats, featuring Berlin’s garage rock legend King Khan. This four-track remix package showcases Osunlade’s signature ability to merge soulful depth with cutting-edge electronic production, breathing new life into the original Afrobeat and funk- infused anthem from the acclaimed album ‘Orile to Berlin.’

The ‘Yoruba Soul Mix’ is a masterclass in deep house, layering warm chords, intricate rhythms, and emotive melodies with an unmistakable spiritual undertone. The ‘Yoruba Club Mix’ pushes the boundaries further, blending elements of techno with driving percussion and hypnotic basslines, creating a harder-hitting yet equally captivating take. Each mix is complemented by its respective instrumental version.

‘Wake Up’ is a rousing call to action, blending RAH’s razor-sharp lyricism and King Khan’s raw energy with The Ruffcats’ impeccable musicianship. A standout on Orile to Berlin, the track examines human nature, survival, and resilience in a chaotic world, delivered with infectious grooves and undeniable authenticity.

You can now listen to the full premiere of Yoruba’s ‘Wake Up (Club Mix)’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
