YACHT

It's no secret that I like YACHT (Young Americans Challenging High Technology). What's more interesting is that modern YACHT is different from early YACHT. Personally, I think YACHT is much, much better with Claire L. Evans.
YACHT is doing well, they recently announced a West Coast tour with Hot Chip, a band that inspired dancing, even at their slowest songs.

BRIEFLY:
TKTTSM
tkttsm.com Brooklyn band TKTTSM's first single from their upcoming album is "Plastic Fantastic," which you can download at WXRT.CBS. I know what the initials for TKTTSM stands for, but the band doesn't want to talk about it… and I'll respect that. But I'm pretty sure you can find out by searching around. The self-titled album will be out October 16th, 2012, via Sumxuni. Download direct: TKTTSM: Plastic Fantastic |
AC/DC
acdc.com AC/DC Live At River Plate is this band's first live album in 20 years!! It's coming out November 20th, just in time for Black Friday. Typical of AC/DC's awesome packaging, the release comes in a 3 disc red vinyl as well as a double CD package with a 24-page booklet. I know you're probably thinking, "But I already have the DVD that was released last year, why should I buy it again?" I'll keep it simple: you're going to buy it again. |
RTFKT
rtfkt.net Guess what RTFKT stands for ? Yeah, you're not going to get it either. It's short for artifact, but with a K. They are celebrating their two years anniversary with a new website. I did look it over, it's all very audio and visual… but to be honest, I didn't know what to make of it. |
FUTURE MUSIC
futureentertainment.com.au Future Entertainment and EMI Music Australia have teamed up to produce a new record label called Future Music. Yes, the future starts now. I'm not surprise at the dance thing, seeing as we like some of Australia's hottest dance groups like Empire of the Sun and Gold Fields. |
