Chain Tripping - the band's seventh LP and third for DFA -was recorded between Marfa, Texas and the band's home in Los Angeles. The ten songs are unlike anything YACHT has ever made: pop experiments from a sideways dimension coaxed into their studio through a portal opened by machine intelligence. "AI and Machine Learning represent a revolution in music equivalent to the introduction of the synthesizer or the beginning of laptop music. We've been a band long enough to watch technology overwrite our assumptions many times, and felt compelled to bring these new tools into our life," explains YACHT.
