Yacht - Summer Song

• This information is going to be presented in bullet form, because Yacht is very committed to efficiency. • In fact, if this onesheet could somehow be a PowerPoint presentation, Yacht would be absolutely thrilled. • Yacht would use as many transition effects as possible in the Power- Point one-sheet. • Yacht’s favorite transition effect is: Confetti (without gravity). • “Summer Song” was originally recorded as a love letter to tourmates LCD Soundsystem, and released for free online. • Yacht is as surprised as you are that DFA wanted to release the song. • “Summer Song” was recorded, produced, mixed by Jona Bechtolt in an apartment in Portland, Oregon. • Yacht has expanded to add an additional full-time member, Claire L. Evans. • The Summer Song 12-inch also features two brand-new, previously unreleased tracks. • One is a complex and empowering banger about living anywhere you want, from the new album, See Mystery Lights. • The other one is a preemptive remix from another new song on the forthcoming/aforementioned album. • Incidentally, this is DFA’s first “audio handshake” with representatives of Portland, Oregon. • At this point in the presentation, Yacht would use a 3D Cube transition. • The music video for “Summer Song” was filmed by Portland director Judah Switzer. • He also made that awesome Scout Niblett video where she puts all that bread in her face. • Yacht remixes itself. • Oh, and the new Yacht album is set for release in 2009. • Thanks for your time.
