Nilüfer Yanya considers small evolutions with her new single 'Mutations'
The track explores subtle personal transformation and is accompanied by a music video directed by Yanya's sister.
Nilüfer Yanya has unveiled 'Mutations', the latest single from her forthcoming album 'My Method Actor'.
The new track explores themes of subtle personal transformation, with Yanya sharing: "'Mutations' deals with change brought about by circumstance. This is not the phoenix rising from the ashes but the subtle change that happens constantly as millions of tiny decisions and actions shape your being. It's kind of like survival, for me. Less of a transformation and more something that's born out of your environment and surroundings, that you need to do to survive. Mutation is just something you have to go through- you have to evolve."
Accompanying the single is a music video directed by Yanya's sister, Molly Daniel, filmed on the streets and beaches of Spain.
'Mutations' follows previous singles from the album including 'Call It Love', 'Method Actor', and 'Like I Say (I runaway)', with the album set for release on 13th September via Ninja Tune.
