| Gili Yalo feat. Keren Dun - Africa |
Release Date: Out Now
I don’t mind admitting that I was in a bit of a grump today
but this tune has not only lifted me out that grump but it’s also made a late
play for my end of year awards. Gili Yalo is an Israeli artist who seems to
have a fix on creating a level of happiness in music and spreading a philosophy
that I can really get on board with. ‘Africa’ is not a complex song but
combined with the video it is a piece of pure joy imbued with colour, energy
and light. The jerky, twitchy keys melody is soon joined by carnival horns and
a rhythm that makes you want to jump and move. Lyrically, this is not complex
either, the message is just to be happy for friends as well as your own achievements.
The additional vocals of Keren Dun just give this a more fun, party vibe while
the music gets it’s groove on like there’s no tomorrow. There’s a real live
quality to the musicianship which only adds to the energy and, along with the
colourful fashions, this just a good time written all over it. Perfect to blast
away those winter blues with, better get some.
