Yacht – 8 Tracks From The Future

We can already use the internet from a pair of glasses, change the TV channel with a couple of pokes of a touchscreen and communicate with people all over the world from the discomfort of overpopulated train carriages. So what marvels does the future really hold? YACHT seem to have a good idea as their dreams and aspirations of the future were apparently much cooler than the one that was delivered to us – something they're keen to stress on their musically diverse new album. So who better than to give us an aural guide to the future? We asked YACHT to give us their views on the future through the form of an 8 tracks selection.
I Thought The Future Would Be Cooler is out on 13th November via Downtown Records.
This is easily the best song ever written about the future. It was Zager & Evans’ only hit, and it had no chorus, only a continuous series of speculations in 100-year increments. It was #1 on the charts when we landed on the moon! It’s like a dystopian novel, made even more exceptionally weird because it was written and performed by two guys from Nebraska.
