Nilüfer Yanya Lets You Into Her World In New Video for “Day 7.5093”
London-based singer-songwriter Nilüfer Yanya released her new EP Feeling Lucky? just last month. Already having released videos for the EP’s other tracks, “Day 7.5093” is the latest video released to complete the roster.
“Day 7.5093” has an underlying groovy bass repetition that drives the verses, and a surfer-esque guitar heavy chorus, the track has a unique, vibey feel. Incorporating synths in the latter half of the track. Yanya’s vocals round out the track, alternating between her lower registers and falsetto to really showcase her range. The song is relaxed, happy and the perfect dose of feel good music to get you through the rest of the winter months.
The video showcases footage from what can be called “the good old days”, shot by Molly Daniels, and features footage from live shows and touring. Feeding viewers bits and pieces of life on the road with all the staples – a golden retriever, day at the beach, and plenty of driving – the video is a nostalgic collage of memories that bring you into Yanya’s world at the time.
“I don’t have a habit of writing much when touring but with ‘Day 7.5093’’ I can remember starting to write the first couple lines in a hotel bathroom so it made sense to use some of the footage from that year,” shares Yanya. “It’s hard to know what you’ve got until it’s gone which is why I’m trying to enjoy this moment too, but travelling and playing shows is something I’ll never take for granted again! I’ll be back touring new music as soon as it’s possible, and next time we’ll film more.” Highly relatable, now that live shows are on a bit of an indefinite hiatus.
Feeling Lucky? Is the follow up to Yanya’s 2019 debut album, Miss Universe. Watch the latest EP video for ‘Day 7.5093’ below, and give the full EP a listen just past.
