YACHT, Bobby Birdman

The “band, belief system, and business” that are Portland,
Oregon, duo YACHT have scored their finest album to date with See
Mystery Lights, out on still-going-strong DFA Records. “Psychic
City (Voodoo City)” and “Summer Song” are a one-two punch at the
record’s core, a pair of love letters composed, respectively, of
sweetly inviting electro-pop and unstoppable disco-punk rhythms.
Surrounding those are songs about magically infinite mobility, life
after death, and—seriously—the wonders and dangers of the
internet. (Vera Project, Seattle Center, 956-8372. 7:30 pm, $10/$11,
