Laureano, Nitefreak, Bambo Cissokho 'Asara (feat. Bambo Cissokho)' on SPINNIN' DEEP

There's something about a vocal that feels ancient and new at the same time, and 'Asara' has that magic. Out now on SPINNIN' DEEP, this is the first time Laureano, Nitefreak and Bambo Cissokho have joined forces on the label since their 'Premier Gaou' single landed back in November 2021.

'Asara' is a masterclass in restraint. The drums sit loud and tight, but they never overpower; the harmony keeps a low profile, letting Bambo Cissokho's voice float over sparse percussion and a bright, airy top end. It's a track that knows exactly what it is: Afro house built for the body and the soul, with peaks that hit harder because everything around them is so carefully held back.

The record has already found its way into the hands of tastemakers. Francis Mercier, fresh off his own collaboration with Nitefreak on 'Gorah', placed 'Asara' at number 20 in his The Yuma Gorah Chart earlier this month, a chart that's become something of a beacon for the sound's global reach. From Berlin to the dancefloor, 'Asara' is a reminder that the right voice, the right groove and the right space can still make time stand still.
