Yarni ft: Franz Von & Jeff Darko - Natural Light (Single)

Yarni presents "Natural Light," the third single from "Anemoia," featuring an innovative collaboration between Sheffield-based rapper Franz Von and returning collaborator Jeff Darko. The track showcases Yarni's versatility, seamlessly blending hip-hop rhythms with soul and Brazilian influences.

As a purely self-taught multi-instrumentalist, Yarni (aka Benjamin Harris) continues to garner acclaim from influential voices, with Gilles Peterson describing his work as "lovely," Luke Una calling it "a beautiful gift to the world," and huge support from BBC Radio 6's Huey Morgan & Deb Grant declaring “Pigna” as "chef's kiss delicious." His previous release "Boro" landed on Spotify's Class of 2021 for Fresh Finds UK and Ireland.

Built around a vocal sample from previous collaborations with Jeff Darko on the acclaimed "Pigna" album, "Natural Light" demonstrates Yarni's innovative production approach. The track features distinctive elements including the Brazilian cuica, enriched by Emily Marks’ cello and Jonoa's saxophone work, creating a sophisticated backdrop for Franz Von's verses and Jeff Darko's soulful chorus.

Following the disco-infused "Temperature's Rising" with Nathaniel Short and the epic "Sealed With A Loving Kiss" featuring Scarlett Fae, this third single further expands "Anemoia's" sonic palette. While its predecessors explored disco and indie-soul territories, "Natural Light" ventures into hip-hop territory while maintaining Yarni's signature eclectic production style.

The track represents another facet of "Anemoia's" genre-defying journey, proving Yarni's ability to craft authentic, innovative music across multiple styles while maintaining a coherent artistic vision.
