I Thought the Future Would Be Cooler

All eyes are on YACHT because of their suave electronic music and high-profile stunts. I Thought the Future Would Be Cooler shows the L.A. duo have been monitoring society just as closely. They attach wry observations about political discord, personal disconnection, fame, and feminism to a pulsating, electro-disco soundtrack that gleefully shifts tempos and percolates with attitude and style. If YACHT aim to be the titans of thinking-person's dance music, I Thought the Future Would Be Cooler is their convincing dossier.
