DJ SPINNA (NYC) & OSUNLADE (USA)

for a very special full venue party . with 360 degrees stage and spinna playing a very special 4 hour set.

DJ Spinna is an anomaly. As a world-renowned DJ, producer, remixer, label head, promoter, curator, and influencer-- Spinna has crafted his artistic vision since the 1990s.

His musical spectrum spans all flavors-- from Hip-Hop [as founding member of The Jigmastas], to Soul and R&B [authoring remixes for Stevie Wonder and Mary J. Blige] to Jazz and Funk [reviving productions from Roy Ayers, Donald Byrd, Betty Carter, Al Jarreau, Eddie Kendricks] to Electronic/Dance and Soulful House [transforming Shaun Escoffery’s “Days Like This” into a worldwide dance floor anthem]. His prolific studio work led to his 2002 cult-classic LP, Here To There, released on the iconic BBE label.

DJ Spinna is synonymous with ground-breaking, annual tribute events. Since 2001, “WONDER-Full” has celebrated the Guest of Honor, Stevie Wonder. DJ Spinna’s collaborations with Stevie Wonder include remixes for “My Love Is On Fire" and “Sweetest Somebody.” In October 2012, Spinna performed an opening DJ set for Stevie Wonder’s United Nations Peace Concert. “Soul Slam,” 20-years strong, is the authoritative Michael Jackson vs. Prince party. DJ Spinna joined forces with Spike Lee in celebrating the iconic artists. At Spike Lee’s “BK Loves MJ" outdoor block party, DJ Spinna commemorates Michael Jackson’s birthday in Brooklyn on a yearly basis. In 2001, Motown tapped DJ Spinna for a brilliant remix of Michael Jackson’s “We’re Almost There.”

Spinna's "Jazzy Soul" events have become a staple for music lovers to experience live DJ and musicianship on a different level, as DJ Spinna uniquely curates stellar performances with jazz artists like harpist Brandee Younger to bassist Christian McBride, and saxophonist Isaiah Collier to name a few.

Spinna has blessed global dance floors across Europe, Asia, Africa, and the United States. He impacted the online streaming arena every week on Apple Music Hits, with DJ Spinna’s “Here To There Radio” featuring two hours of themed selections that showcase his versatile expertise and massive vinyl collection. On Twitch, he has amassed 22,000 followers spinning live, marathon sets and interacting with his chatroom on two shows, DJ Spinna Presents Journey and Galactic Quiet Storm.

DJ Spinna is undoubtedly the master of all genres with over 2300 music credits. Whether spinning the classics or releasing new music, DJ Spinna’s passion, professionalism, prowess, and pure vibes are felt with every note.

OSUNLADE

"A veteran DJ and producer, Osunlade has been crafting music for over three decades. Under both his own name and his inimitable Yoruba Soul alias he’s become synonymous with his ability to create entrancing raw percussive grooves. His productions are spiritual and organic, a characteristic that stems from his Yoruba traditions and his work as a priest of the Ifá religion.

This also feeds into the philosophy and mission of his label. Yoruba Records is deeply rooted in these traditions and has been a home for artists like Nadirah Shakoor, Boddhi Satva, Afefe Iku and Osunlade’s own material, which sits among his lengthy discography of releases for well-respected labels including strictly Rhythm, Rebirth, Talkin Loud, Souljazz and BBE.
