YACHT is one of my favourite bands on DFA Records ... AND check what James Murphy(LCD Soundsystem) said about YACHT:"YACHT smells wonderful. I must say, all the time he spent in our bus, it was as if a cool breeze was blowing through my mind. and good songs, too!" I guess you should love them :-) Yacht - See A Penny (Pick It Up) 192 kbit/s (RIGHT CLICK & SAVE AS) Yacht - Psychic City (Joe Goddard Rmx) [...]

Bomb In A Birdcage is a grower. Although I expected it to be of lower tempo, it works just fine. She's like the Gossip lite. This first single doesn't really do the album justice, but has a cute little vid.

Yes, all the Frenzy fans can go and have a first listen to the second album from Alison Sudol who is famously known as A Fine Frenzy. The album is titled Bomb In A Birdcage and the first single from it is "Blow Away." The second single will be "Happier." The album was supposed to land on August 28th. But now it's on Google's blog search.

Gracias a él, es que NNM es lo que es. Tuve la suerte de conocer lo que era Trash, y lo que luego se Convirtió en Durrr. Rory Phillips , y Erol Alkan , fundaron estas fiesta, la historia real no la conozco, y menos quien tuvo mayor influencia en todo el proyecto. Pero fuera de estos detalles dentro de la historia, lo importante es que quiero destacar a Rory Phillips, como uno de los Djs mas Influyentes en la escena electrónica independiente de hoy en día. Trash y Durrr, fueron por lejos los clubes que [...]
Fur Hood A bunch of Scotsmen and an American make some music - sounds like the beggining of a strange, badly told joke but it's actually a good way to describe Fur Hood. This lot from Glasgow take the wonderful naievty and quirky sentimentality of The Blow and Tender Forever and put them over a choppy, bits-and-blips soundscape that reminds of someone like Psapp . Also, I'm pretty sure I heard the sound that Windows when its about to break somewhere in the background - listen [...]

YACHT have always been one of those bands that I'm not quite sure about. Enjoyable all the same, just never grabbing me enough to form a love or obsession. If you'd have asked me about the bands main man Jona Bechtolt I would've responded by telling you that I was much more fond of his work with former band 'The Blow'. Their 2006 album 'Paper Television' was a prime example of what I would call Indie-Pop perfection. Bechtolt and YACHT band mate Claire L. Evans have now swayed me over to their side of the musical fence [...]

The new video for YACHT 's Psychic City (Voodoo City) is an old-fashioned love story between good and evil. It's a romance between white and black, a courtship of light and dark, with the archetypes being played by Jona Becholt and Claire L. Evans of YACHT, respectively. While the video portrays seemingly staunch views, YACHT wishes to emphasize that this cut, in no way, suggests an affiliation with any religious organization, nor does it aim to rebuke them. It also does not endorse practice of the occult [...]

Now, Now Every Children ran into some van troubles on the road, and will have to cancel some tour dates. Stay up on all their latest goings on at their tumblr page . Music in the office: *MP3: Discovery - "Osaka Loop Line" *MP3: The Blow - "Parentheses"

This weekend, my bff Katie Curran, packed up her things and made the move from Minneapolis to New York. I thought it was only right to make her a mix to keep her company while on the road. And yes, Katie, my life would suck without you. *MP3: Voxtrot - "Start Of Something" *MP3: Camera Obscura - "Let's Get Out Of This Country" *MP3: Jenny Lewis - "See Fernando" *MP3: Coconut Records - "Microphone" *MP3: The Blow [...]
Jona Bechtolt has been recording under the moniker YACHT for several years now, even though I never paid him a lick of attention until 2007's "I Believe in You. Your Magic Is Real." Actually, I first came to know him as a member of The Blow, whose 2006 album "Paper Television" contained some remarkably great pop songs. But he left The Blow after that album and subsequent tour to focus exclusively on YACHT, and I quickly got angry at him for it. How dare he leave Khaela Maricich by herself to keep touring on those quirky love songs! That was [...]

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars When Jona Bechtolt left B.L.O.W all these years back now, no one knew what direction he would pursue, as his music seemed perfectly fitting for the duo. He wowed many with his clever YACHT debut, I Believe in You... , but could he proceed in a similar direction while achieving similar success when he added Claire Evans to the mix? See Mystery Lights is the answer to that [...]

Why was it banned? She's just having some Sprite. People need to loosen up. I didn't think Germany would ban this, have the tides changed there? Posted in Chuckle, Clip Tagged: 7up, ad, banned, bj, blow, commercial, german, germany, job, sprite
The Knife may be taking three years off to pursue parenthood and DJing, but fans of computer pop can relax: Portland duo YACHT , helmed by couple Jona Bechtolt and Claire Evans , will more than fill the void for music lovers seeking digital dance gems.

I got to wondering what The Blow has been up to and the answer is, besides Yacht ... not much. Khaela and Jona have gone their separate ways and there doesn't appear to be anything new in the works. This is a real shame since I loved Khaela Maricich's work and her menacing voice, especially on the minor hit Pile of Gold back in '06. Here's what is known : [...]

Photo: Don Nguyen (welovedon.com) Despite the June Gloom, summer is on the way! You can always tell when it's that time of year: graduations abound, the smell of barbecue on your afternoon bike ride, chlorine scents lingering in your hair into the night, and staying up till sunlight cracks open the sky with just a bit of hazy grey that sobers you up just enough for you to stop and realize that you've had a great night and should probably drink some water before you take your [...]

Nama bandnyaThe Blow, rada aneh sih kalo di translate ke Indonesia, tiupan. :| Ga penting lah hahah. Jadi gini ceritanya dulu waktu saya browsing dapet lagu ini gara gara browsing di last.fm similar artist nya siapa lupa terus iseng di donlot satu album, dan walah, keren juga. Sayangnya Jona Bechhtolt si yang bikin musiknya keluar dari The Blow dan bikin band baru namanya Yacht. Dan akhirnya tinggal Khaela Maricich lah sendirian , kasian juga ga ada yang mau nemenin. Maaf informasi sya sekali lagi ga informatif, tapi meningan di download aja salah satu lagu yang ada di [...]

Eine Band, die von sich selbst behauptet, dass sie klingt wie Prince mit Amon Duul II, Hot Chip, Pink Floyd, Gwen Stefani, Pere Ubu, Danielson Famile, Scritti Politti, Boards of Canada, The Blow und Pulp, muß ich Euch einfach vorstellen. Oder um es in den Worten von Fol Chen zu sagen: „We are cryptic and joyful and we would like you to dance." [mp3] Fol Chen / Cable TV (Liars Remix)
