CAIANDA was born in Luanda, Angola, at midnight. Between one day and the next. That threshold is where his music lives.
Based in Gent, Belgium, he makes Afrohouse and Afrotech that fuses African ancestral rhythms with the precision of European electronic music. Not as a concept. As a lived reality.
Tracks like Sinda, Nicaragua, Destroyer, Voodoo and WTF have been supported by Diplo, Shimza and Francis Mercier. Featured on over 260 Spotify playlists. Over 76,000 listeners. Shazamed more than 10,000 times.
Performed at Paradise City Festival Brussels, Listen Festival Antwerp, ADE Amsterdam and O2 Theatre London.
In 2025 he founded SOMMBA Records: a label, a radio and an events series built as a cultural platform for the African diaspora in electronic music.
