With no consensus pick emerging from our call for your top summer jamz, YACHT steps up to the plate with an unsubtly-titled track aiming for your poolside playlists. Says Jona:
I heard someone saying that there wasn't a definitive summer banger for 2007, and this saddened me deeply. I'm not sure if this is even remotely true, but just the fact that someone felt like this summer is without its own anthem left me feeling like I could at least give it a shot.
My shot is a love letter to LCD Soundsystem, my new friends and tourmates from the very beginning of the summer. They added me to their top 8, so in turn I made this song for them, and for you, Summer...and for you, dear reader.
Check it...
YACHT (Feat. Claire L. Evans) - "The Summer Song" (MP3)
Bechtolt's track is a sweaty, cowbell/sloppy-bass DFA tribute for sure. But it's more Sparks than daiquiris, and last time someone mentioned Immaculate Machine's "Dear Confessor" (which you know we love) as a possibility -- so take this as a sunny day pairing to YACHT's afterparty starter.
