It’s no coincidence that I just got through talking about how great summer songs are. Now YACHT are just making it to easy. This cut, off their upcoming See Mystery Lights due out July 28th, is simply called, “Summer Song.” Given my personal working definition (“luscious, almost eatable…hey fill the time between Memorial Day and Labor Day, scoring every ice cream cone, beach party, bon fire, and that afternoon hammock nap”), naming a track “Summer Song” is quite ambitious. Luckily for YACHT, I respond well to ambition and in the case of “Summer Song,” it pays off generously.
“Move your feet to the summer song,” we are urged throughout this bouncy and unquestionably danceable track. Will it be at the top of everyone’s playlist this summer? Probably not. I personally still prefer See Mystery Lights first single, “Psychic City,” but it lacks the obvious dancefloor appeal that “Summer Song” so effortlessly possesses.

“Summer Song” is just plain fun! “It’s Boring/You Can Live Anywhere You Want” is pretty fucking great.
Totally agree with the LCD Soundsystem comparison.
SummerSongSummerSongSummerSongSummerSongSummerSong!
I do like it, yes I do.
These two sound awesome, but not as awesome as Psychic City (my new favorite song!)… can’t wait for the album.
This is really old. Like mid 2007 old.
It’s off their upcoming album. So it’s new. You heard an early demo
fyi – yacht did tour with LCD soundsystem over a year ago. but yacht does rule the school and i’m looking forward to their next album.
