Eli Fola hails from Nigeria and has pioneered his own Yoruba tech soul sound. The now LA-based DJ, producer, sound artist and sax player blends Afro culture with plenty of his own spirituality and s inspired by everything from Highlife to Jeff Mills. He has shared the stage with international stars rom the hip-hop world, as well as Black Coffee, Pablo Fierro and Audiofly, so is a true leader in his field.
His fantastic 'Lagos Mentality' is emotionally intense, with passionate vocal cries and tribal chanting over a fat bassline and Afro-house drums. Layers of organic percussion and bird calls give it a vibrant, living atmosphere, and as the chord vamps build, the drums lock dancers into a spiritual groove with plenty of dramatic twists and turns along the way.
