ÌFÉ - LIVE PERFORMANCE SUMMER 2020 // IBA TIto Puente Concert Series - 4K

ÌFÉ's full 30min live performance at IBA Boston's Virtual Tito Puente Concert Series 2020.

Filmed in quarantine at the San Juan Puerto Rico studio and spiritual house ILÉ ÌFÉ, the video features ÌFÉ front man and producer Otura Mun along side the projects newest voice, Lavoski.

“I’m so pleased with this performance. I was initially very resistant to the idea of producing a ”streaming" style performance in the first months of the Covid-19 pandemic. I wasn’t at all interested in watching anyone “go live” and I felt that anything other than what I’ve previously done on stage would inevitably amount to a “less than” scenario in terms of what I could offer an audience now vs then. There was also the issue of putting my health at risk by exposing myself to musicians and a film crew. My quarantine has been very strict and at the moment this was filmed I hadn't left my home or seen or touched another human being in something like 4 months. Now, a month and a half later I'm so glad that we made this happen. I still haven’t left home or had any human contact, but the music has managed to get out, to carry on. I’m thankful for that. This is my first show with Lavoski in the line up and she absolutely tore it up. This will go down as one of my favorite ÌFÉ shows of all time. Put your headphones on and turn it up. This one hits hard". - Otura Mun

Founded by Puerto Rico based African American producer and percussionist Otura Mun, ÌFÉ is a futuristic live electronic music project blending elements of Afro-Cuban folklore and Yoruban religious music with the bass driven sounds of modern day Jamaican Dancehall, Trap and Afro-Beat. The single most important electronic act in Afro-Caribbean music, ÌFÉ’s 2017 debut album “IIII+IIII” revolutionized the way electronic music was conceived and performed, seamlessly combining the intricacies of Afro-Caribbean percussion and song with the power of modern electronica played in real time, no DJ’s, no programming, totally freed from the grid. A groundbreaking re-imagination of ancient diaspora music and movement, ÌFÉ’s music explores the higher frequencies while paying keen attention to the lower ones in a way that feels equal parts riot and ritual. Their highly anticipated sophomore album is slated for release in Fall of 2020.
