Cold Heart by Nilufer Yanya
Nilüfer Yanya shares a new single “Cold Heart.” The song was written alongside a collection of tracks that Nilüfer re-approached with her creative partner Wilma Archer when she returned from touring her latest record. The song opens with a synth melody and Nilüfer’s haunting vocals. Nilüfer shares, “This one turned out pretty different to how I imagined it. The initial melody felt very spacious, like there’s room for anything to happen. It felt like a kind of experiment.”
The new single follows Nilüfer Yanya’s latest album My Method Actor, which was released to overwhelming critical praise with a Best New Music stamp from Pitchfork and the New York Times describing as, “A melodically rich meditation on identity, desire and the reverberations of heartache.”
The album bloomed into being in unexpected ways helping Yanya make sense of her world and the ways it’s changing, entering her late twenties and grappling with what it means to be an established musician.
