Gledd 'Yandman' on Cacao Records

Gledd's 'Yandman' lands on Cacao Records, filed as Afro house, released on 5 May and running at 127 BPM, as Lisbon and Berlin move through high summer. Nhii placed it 11th of 12 on the June Vibes chart, posted 19 June, a list where Manu Dibango, Nhii and HARJI's 'Bessoka' on Sol Selectas held first.

Cacao Records' own note calls it "2 new groovy afro influenced interpretations that bring a clubbing and/or outdoor vibe." The harmony runs the record, set against unhurried percussion that stays held back, with plenty of room under the peaks and a top end that sits neither bright nor dark.

'Yandman' arrives without much fanfare beyond the label's own plain description, letting the groove carry the release on its own terms.
