==================================================

Catalog No: SK576D
Release Date: December 4th, 2026

Berlin and Bristol come together in a collaboration years in the making as renowned German singer, songwriter and musician Clara Hill joins forces with acclaimed British producer, vocalist and multi- instrumentalist Ben Jacobs, better known as Crackazat.

Their partnership is rooted in genuine mutual admiration. Clara first discovered Crackazat’s music via Instagram in 2022 and was immediately captivated by his elegant productions and the organic way he connected music with nature. For Ben, however, the story began much earlier. More than twenty years ago, he first encountered Clara’s unmistakable voice through Jazzanova’s timeless classic No Use, becoming an instant admirer of her rich, layered approach to electronic soul and jazz.

“I was immediately drawn to his music, ” Clara recalls. “My first thought was: I’d love to work with him one day, our musical worlds could fit together beautifully. ” “I became an instant fan of her smooth, rich and layered approach to vocals and harmony, ” says Ben. “Long before I started releasing my own music, Clara’s work had already become a huge inspiration. ”

The pair finally met in person during a music project in South Africa in 2023, where Clara joined one of Ben’s live performances. Although both remained focused on their own artistic paths, the idea of collaborating never disappeared.

The timing eventually aligned when Ben contributed a remix to Jazzanova’s No Use project while Clara was searching for a creative partner who could help reconnect her with the sophisticated electronic soul that shaped many of her earliest releases. “Ben sent me two early drafts that I immediately connected with, ” Clara explains. “One of them was based on a musical idea I had originally heard in one of his Instagram reels and had never forgotten. The inspiration was so strong that what was initially planned as two songs quickly became three. That’s when the idea for Harmony was born. ”

Their creative process mirrors the EP’s title. Ben begins by creating musical sketches, Clara responds with lyrics, melodies and vocal arrangements, before Ben carefully refines every detail into its final form. The result is a collaboration built on trust, patience and a shared musical language.

Across its three tracks, Harmony explores different stages of emotional growth and self-acceptance.

The opening single, Better, reflects on overcoming self-doubt and finding the courage to trust yourself. I Want You To Know (My Heart Beats Slow) shifts towards a quieter, more enduring form of love built on gratitude, consistency and emotional connection. Completing the journey, Living My Harmony becomes a declaration of personal freedom, challenging society’s expectations and celebrating the courage to live life according to your own rhythm rather than someone else’s timeline.

“The verses show people everything we’re supposed to accomplish in life, ” Clara explains of Living My Harmony. “But the chorus offers another perspective: I’ll do things in my own way, in my own time and according to my own sense of harmony. Nobody owes the world a specific timeline for happiness, success or fulfilment. ”

Musically, Harmony is equally cohesive. Crackazat’s unmistakable blend of deep house, broken beat, jazz and soulful electronic production provides the perfect canvas for Clara’s warm, expressive vocals. Rich analogue textures, organic grooves, shimmering keys and understated musical detail create a timeless sound that feels equally at home on the dancefloor and in intimate listening spaces.

Rather than chasing trends, Harmony celebrates craftsmanship, emotional honesty and the beauty of genuine collaboration. It reconnects Clara Hill with the sophisticated electronic soul that first established her as one of the defining voices of the genre, while showcasing Crackazat’s exceptional ability to merge musicality with modern club sensibilities. Some collaborations happen quickly. Others quietly wait for the right moment. Harmony is proof that the best ones are worth waiting for.
