London-based musician Yunè Pinku has had an impressively rapid rise. From creating her first tracks during lockdown, each release has seen her take a significant step forward in terms of both scope and creativity.
That rise hasn’t gone unnoticed either. In the past few years she’s collaborated with Hot Chip, Joy Orbison has tapped her for guest mixes as part of his Radio 1 residency, and next month she’s heading out on tour around the US in support of Caribou.
In the run up to her latest EP, Scarlet Lamb, we caught up with Yunè Pinku in the London studio where the release was created. As well as sitting down for an interview, we tasked her with building a track sketch from scratch.
