Album YACHT's Influences Revealed
Posted by Dave Segal on Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 10:22 AM
YACHT's mixtape, Anthem of Trinity, exposes their many and varied influences and is a damn good listen, too. Titled after a Terry Riley track from his Shri Camel LP, the mix reveals the Portland group's impeccable taste and offers clues into the creation of YACHT's own art. Even if you don't like their music, you gotta give it up to them as bedroom DJs. The duo's explanation for the mixtape follows below.
"Anthem of the Trinity" is a carefully crafted, edited, and generally enhanced continuous 37+ minute mix of songs that subconsciously inspired the musical themes of YACHT's latest album, See Mystery Lights. Ranging from Arthur Russell to INXS, the Talking Heads to Bad Brains, from gnostic dance party to deep meditation (and back), "Anthem of the Trinity" is a definitive compendium of YACHT's innermost influences.
Please enjoy this awesome song, which appears on Anthem of Trinity.
