Yacht is a pure product of an off-shore culture, bringing weird references into light. On stage, once the music starts, Yacht dances and mimes instruments. With his inextinguishable energy, he plays generous electronic music. His compositions have a lot of odd sounds, frantic rhythms and glorious melodies.

Genres have become increasingly hard to pin down; whether they're trended by blogs or vague generalities , it can be difficult to say Band A belongs to Genre B.

As a first listen to the album, which Duvall produced himself with the help of drummer Jeremy Sherrer, have [...]
