SummersRadio™ New Music! YACHT - 'Party At The NSA'
YACHT have just released a new song called 'Party At The NSA' online today! The NSA is the U.S. National Security Agency who've been monitoring phone conversations and other sources of data since 1952. Yes, this is American agency, but you can bet that this has been happening in Canada, the U.K. and elsewhere in the world for decades as well.
YACHT have written the song to help raise money for the Electronic Frontier Association'who will defend us all from living in a total surveillance state' (and) 'to help fight unwarranted (and illegal) NSA surveillance'.'Party At The NSA' is released on DFA Records and if the song is to your liking you can donate any amount you wish to receive a copy of it by clicking on the 'donate to download' arrow below.
Here are the song lyrics:
L Y R I C S :
Did you read my mail again? How do you find the time? I lost my signal yesterday, But it was never mine.
We don't need no privacy. What do you want that for? Don't you think it'll spoil our fun If you let that whistle blow?
P-P-P-Party at the NSA, Twenty, twenty, twenty-four hours a day!
There is a rainbow at the end of every P-R-I-S-M.
Be careful where you look today, Careful what you share. We're gonna make history. But it won't know we're there.
The world looks stranger when you look Through electronic eyes. There's a place in the Beehive State Where the network goes to die.
P-P-P-Party at the NSA, Twenty, twenty, twenty-four hours a day!
'Party At The NSA' is an original recording - but there are a few nods to some punk/ new wave classics including Elvis Costello's 'Pump It Up' and The Ramones 'I Wanna Be Sedated'... Enjoy!
SummersRadio™ New Music/ Cover! YACHT - 'I'll Be Your Mirror'
YACHT have released a cover of the Velvet Underground & Nico classic 'I'll Be Your Mirror'! The band just posted this 'new beat' cover on Soundcloud yesterday - but it was actually released as the b-side song on their new six track EP for their latest single (also a cover) 'Le Goudron' - which is released on DFA Records, and is available on itunes.
This a respectful electronic cover featuring minimal synths and lovely harmonies that echo the beauty of Nico's original performance... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! YACHT - 'Tripped And Fell In Love' YACHT began in 2002 as the solo project of Portland Oregon's Jona Bechtolt. He released three albums between 2002 and 2008 - when the project officially became a duo with the addition of long time collaborator Claire L. Evans.
YACHT released their first album as a duo in 2009 called 'See Mystery Lights' on DFA Records - and they've just released their second album today! It's called 'Shangri-La' and it's also out on the DFA label. It contains ten tracks including the first single 'Dystopia (The Earth Is On Fire)' and the new single 'Utopia'. The wonderfully titled 'Tripped And Fell In Love' is the ninth track on the album and would certainly be a wise choice for single number three... Enjoy!
