Yazata leapt through the blue-eyed soul-infused dreamy downtempo portal and hit the ground running a couple of years ago, and has been doing a fine job ever since of infusing all the right sort of influences into his personal take on hazy, vocal chill-out that is summer, late night and lazy day primed.


Robyn Wynter Gibbon aka Yazata with a serious expression against ornate, paisley-patterned background in rich gold and black. Warm lighting enhances the detail.

He released his debut (mini) album last year, but isn't resting on his laurels or hanging about in 2026, even enlisting TSMM favourite Adam Scrimshire on production duty for "Electric", his latest single. The track stutters and splutters into life with a lone trumpet cutting through the electronic pulse and vintage Jamaican echoes that portend the dub infusion to come. The vibe continues after the drop with Yazata floating his vocal declaration of affection over the atmospheric currents, but just as you're floating away, some reality-anchoring downtempo beats give you something to grasp, and maybe even sway to, and are soon reinforced by a bit of low key acoustic funkiness and further reggaefication, making for a fine slice of feel-good, low-gravity, soulful dreaminess that wouldn't have sounded out of place in the late 90s and early 00s chill-out heyday.
