IFÉ: A Conversation with Groundbreaking Artist, Otura Mun
from The Theory of Enchantment · host The Theory of Enchantment
Mr. Otura Mun is the founder of Ifé, a band whose music I discovered in 2017. "Ifé", a Yoruban term meaning both Love and Expansion, is a Puerto Rican based music group whose debut album is by far one of the greatest albums I've ever been blessed to hear. Combining the sounds of rhumba and electronic percussion along with the corpus and thematic elements of the Yoruba religion, Mr. Mun takes his audience on a spiritual journey that left me feeling open, creative, and above all, grateful for life. Though we could not meet in person, (Mr. Mun lives in San Juan), we spoke over Zoom and recorded an almost 2-hour conversation about his process and journey to make this record. Musicians and artists will especially love this interview, but everyone regardless of their background should take some time to listen to the album. It is truly extraordinary.
