Yaki‑Da was a Swedish pop duo active in the mid‑1990s. The act consisted of vocalists Marie Knutsen and Linda Schönberg and is best known for the single “I Saw You Dancing.”
The duo was assembled by Jonas “Joker” Berggren, a member of the Swedish group Ace of Base, who also produced their debut record. Berggren wrote all but two tracks on that first album. Yaki‑Da operated between 1994 and 2000, after which the project ceased activity.
Yaki‑Da’s music is characterised by melodic pop structures with a Euro‑dance sensibility typical of mid‑90s Swedish production. Their sound reflects the polished, radio‑friendly style associated with Berggren’s work for Ace of Base.
