Across five albums, countless EPs, and a string of live dates—Sheffield multi-instrumentalist and musical artist Yarni has covered more sonic terrain than other equally open-minded musicians do in an entire career.
His constantly shifting, always transformative sounds have touched upon deep house and electronica (his debut album, Entkommen); widescreen cinematic head music (his second album, Boro, fueled by an inspiring trip to Japan); futuristic jazz (2022’s Pigna); and the lush dancefloor orchestration of techno-gone-R’n’B (his most recent longplayer, Parenthesis, a collaborative effort with Give Me Monaco). Now, with the highly anticipated 2025 release Anemoia, Yarni ventures into even more transcendent realms, blending nostalgic textures with forward-thinking electronics to create a sound that feels both timeless and utterly fresh.
Traces of these beguiling sounds can be found in all of his releases. Yarni’s creative curiosity—he wilfully embraces his magpie tendencies and loves the idea of cherry-picking from his many musical loves—means he never stands still for long.
Unsurprisingly, his work has been praised by tier-one tastemakers from Andrew Weatherall and DJ Harvey to Luke Una and Gilles Peterson. As such, his prolific musicality ensures his star continues to rise. He might be one of the UK’s best-kept musical secrets for now, but don’t expect Yarni to remain a mystery for too much longer.
